According to Shea Dixon of Geaux247, newly-crowned national championship head coach Ed Orgeron of LSU visited freshman quarterback Arch Manning of Newman (New Orleans, La.) on Tuesday.

Manning was named the MaxPreps National Freshman of the Year earlier this month after throwing for 2,407 yards and 34 touchdowns in his first season of high school football.

The nephew of Super Bowl-winning quarterbacks Peyton and Eli Manning, Arch made his debut Sept. 6, 2019, throwing for 224 yards and three touchdowns in a 41-15 win over Lusher (New Orleans).

A week later, Manning tossed for 211 yards and three more touchdowns.

The Greenies would go on to start 7-0 before a 28-27 loss to St. Charles Catholic (LaPlace) on Oct. 24.

After failing to keep Peyton and Eli at home, LSU fans would love to see Orgeron land the latest potential star in the Manning family line of quarterbacks.

The Tigers are coming off a dream season, going 15-0 and winning SEC and national titles. Quarterback Joe Burrow won the Heisman Trophy after throwing for 5,671 yards and 60 touchdowns.
