Jackson Arnold among Friday’s standouts at Manning Passing Academy

Jackson Arnold is among Manning Passing Academy standouts on Friday.

The 2024 college football season is going to be highly anticipated for the Oklahoma Sooners. It’s their first year in the SEC. The Sooners will have a new offensive line. And, more importantly, they’ll have a new starting quarterback at the helm.

Jackson Arnold will take over for Dillon Gabriel to lead an offense that averaged 41.7 points per game. He’s looked good in limited opportunities, but is hoping to elevate his game this offseason as he takes part in the Manning Passing Academy, a football camp conducted by the legendary quarterback trio Archie Manning, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning.

In Friday’s action, Arnold was considered one of the session’s standout performers by On3.

Arnold’s play as a freshman proved his toughness outside the pocket, and the former 5-star had good zip on his passes at Friday Night Lights and had some nice deep ball throws. Arnold told On3 he feels much more confident entering Year 2 of college ball in Norman, and his arm talent showed in South Louisiana on Friday night. – On3

Arnold has the talent to be another highly productive quarterback for the Oklahoma Sooners. His size, arm strength and accuracy give Arnold a chance to take the world by storm in his first season as a starter.

If Oklahoma’s offensive line can give him enough time to let his playmakers get down the field, Arnold’s going to have a big year.
