I still think had Vinny gone to a quality franchise instead of the Bucs and Ray “GM-HC-OC-QB coach” Perkins he would have had an even better career. He was missing some intangible that HOF/SB franchise QBs like Elway, Marino, or Kelly all have, but we’d be lucky to have another Canes QB with 80% of Vinny’s gifts.

Does he keep involved with the program? I remember he was part of HC ‘search’ committee (with Vilma) when Richt was hired. I worked with Vinny’s wife’s sister around that time, and she said the Vinny and his family went to a lot of games when VT JR walked on. Otherwise I haven’t seen pictures of him around, like you see others. Especially now, with Mario bringing everyone around.

He was probably busy in NFL prep...he only retired a year or two ago.

Legit respect the Manningfamily for making this kid earn it . Let's see if they can hold on to those values..

Sarkisan was probably 13 tequila shots deep when he said that

True, but they also have the luxury of being able to do so. Most kids aren't coming from families that are as well off as them.

Agreed. But it is still good to see a rich family hold their rich kid accountable. Hopefully they dont bend the knee

Hope the kid will be ok

He’s already got Millions in his Bank account, NIL deals are chump change for him.

Nice to be able to teach your kid a $3M lesson at a cost of $3M.

His uncle Peyton is going to donate all of his College Bowl paychecks to the destitute family of Cooper Manning...

Careful bro.

Apparently he found Jesus again and he’s clean.

He does have an NIL deal. It's called the Uncle Peyton deal.

 

[Cryptical Envelopment]

His parents are loaded too. While not 9-figure Peyton or Eli rich, Cooper has made 10's of millions in business.

 

[Cribby]

The hate this kid gets by grown adults has been very intriguing to watch. Especially with how professional , quiet and drama free his recruitment was.

If you think he’s overrated fine but he didn’t give himself that ranking.

 

[No_Fly_Zone]

Agreed. But it is still good to see a rich family hold their rich kid accountable. Hopefully they dont bend the knee

Agreed. Johnathan Paul Manziel's parents are big oil millionaires, but if NIL was a thing back then we all know he'd be all about it.

Yea everyone thinks Cooper is at the corner collecting quarters…guys probably worth 50 million and his wife may be worth more than that…lol…NONE of the mannings are paupers

And as I have porsted before, they are genuinely nice people….

I’ve never got the feeling the Mannings are anything but pleasant, professional people.

Peyton seems like people I’d like to just sit, chat, and have a beer with.

 

[Cajuncane]

And as I have porsted before, they are genuinely nice people….

Yep very nice..everyone from Archie down are the most cordial people you could know…Momma and Daddy are as humble a couple as you will ever find and they did a great job raising their sons to be the same

True story. A friend, former Penn State LB, is now a real estate developer. He was in NYC meeting with some bankers and as he returned to his hotel saw a sign that said “SEC Athletic Directors Annual Meeting Dinner”. A former teammate was the assistant AD for Vandy so he walked in to see if the guy was there. After looking for a moment an attractive older lady in a business suit walked over to him and asked if she could help. He told her who he was looking for and she told him the guy was not in attendance. But, any friend of his was certainly welcome to eat dinner there. He realized he hadn’t eaten all day and thanked her. After getting stuff from the buffet, the lady waived him over to her table where she introduced him to her husband-Arch. She said their boys were coming soon and he was welcome at their table. He sat down gobsmacked as two younger men approached and Arch introduced him to Payton and Eli. They grabbed some food talked about Joe Paterno. Then one of Eli”s teammates walked up and he announced they were meeting some others at a jazz club nearby. He invited my friend. He declined saying he had an early flight. But as he started to leave Mrs. Manning called one of the servers over and asked him to take some pictures of the group, my friend included. She sent them to him later. I have seen them and it is hard to call bull-ship when there are photos. Nice people.
