More names potentially coming later.

The field this year is stacked, led by Texas‘ Arch Manning, Clemson‘s Cade Klubnik, Penn State‘s Drew Allar and South Carolina‘s Lanorris Sellers.

Manning, who grew up attending the camp, is poised to make the leap as one of the nation’s best quarterbacks this season. Arch played in 10 games as a freshman in 2024, passing for 939 yards, nine touchdowns and just two interceptions. Texas won the two games that he started in relief of Quinn Ewers by scores of 51-3 (Louisiana-Monroe) and 35-13 (Mississippi State).

Klubnik, Allar and Sellers are just a few other rising quarterbacks poised to break out into superstardom this season. Both Klubnik (Clemson) and Allar (Penn State) led their respective teams to College Football Playoff appearances last season, with Allar and the Nittany Lions advancing to the semifinals.

Other than the headliners, a lot of other great talents are gracing the Manning Passing Academy with their presence this season. Some of these underrated names include Indiana‘s Fernando Mendoza, Oklahoma‘s John Mateer, Georgia’s Gunner Stockton, Arizona State’s Sam Leavitt and SMU’s Kevin Jennings. Stockton, Leavitt and Jennings all also started a College Football Playoff Game last season.

This year’s event is scheduled to start on June 26 and run through June 29 at Nicholls State university in Thibodaux, LA. As expected, it will once again be run by Executive Director Archie Manning and Senior Associate Directors Cooper Manning, Eli Manning and Peyton Manning.

If you’re a quarterback in college football, this event is the place to be.
