The wait is over for Texas and Arch Manning, though quarterback admits it wasn't easy being backup
ATLANTA — Arch Manning amassed the largest crowd at SEC Media Days on Tuesday, and it wasn't particularly close. Neither was the competition for most devoted fan, that title belonged to 13-year-old Connor Petroziello.
The Manning superfan arrived at the College Football Hall of Fame at 6:45 a.m., sporting a white Longhorns hat, a No. 16 jersey and burnt orange Crocs. He didn't know Manning's brief walk-by wouldn't happen until 4:15 p.m., but when he found out, he didn't halt the mission. Ten hours later, his idol signed his jersey.
