The counselors for the Manning Passing Academy were released Thursday, June 18 – and there’s no shortage of huge names heading to the four-day event next week.
The passing academy is a four-day clinic for high school football players hosted annually at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, La. It was founded by Archie Manning in 1996, and has since come to often include other high-profile members of the Manning family tree, including Peyton and Eli Manning.
Each year, a number of the nation’s top quarterbacks join the camp as counselors, working with camp attendees and competing in a skills competition.
This year, the college players that will be in attendance are:
Top attendees include Arch Manning, Trinidad Chambliss, CJ Carr and Julian Sayin, all in the conversation for the 2026 Heisman Trophy.
There have, per usual, been some notable names that declined the invite as well – Indiana’s Josh Hoover, LSU’s Sam Leavitt, Miami’s Darian Mensah, Oregon’s Dante Moore and South Carolina’s LaNorris Sellers will all not be able to make it, and former Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby recently pulled out in the midst of the controversy and legal battle surrounding his unearthed betting habits.
The academy will run from Thursday, June 25 to Sunday, June 28.
