That's the word.

Per ESPN: "Manning ended the intrigue Thursday afternoon, committing to
Texas over suitors that included Georgia, Alabama, LSU, Clemson and
Virginia."

I wonder if he might renege? He still has a year of HS left and Steve
Sarkisian should be able to disappoint Texas fans with another
lackluster season. Seems foolish not to pick AL, GA, or Clempsun with
their proven coaching staffs.

I wouldn't think NIL wouldn't be a big deal to a rich kid like that, but I might be wrong.

If he could bring Texas back, he would become a colossus in a way it's hard to see him being at Clempsun or Bama.

A possible renege seems the funniest outcome, so I think I'll hope for that. I mean, what if he is great? Well, he's a Manning: we expect him to be great. Likewise, what if Texas is about 500? Well, it's Texas: we expect under-performance.
