    Met Cooper at the Manning Passing Academy at Nicholas State right before Katrina hit. Best dude at the camp by far. I got to find out how funny he was in person. It was great.
  • @steadydropnem
    He looks like Archie, Payton and Eli combined into one 😂😂😂
  • @chaosawaits
    What a really cool guy! And Eli is so cool too. It makes it even more interesting that Peyton is the unique character he grew up to become
  • @twotone9908
    It’s good that Peyton and Eli, say “ if cooper is not involved then you you don’t get us 2”
  • How can u tell who he looks like? Different photos of each of them, on some I can't tell who is who but I really like this family. I've seen interviews with all of them and I think this one has the sweetest and best personality. There seems to be no jealousy or envy just love. Kudos to Archie and his wife.
  • @chittyluv2651
    He looks just like Archie, Peyton and Eli. Arch reminds me of Eli.
  • @americanboy79
    I feel so bad for Cooper. He was Peytons star receiver at Newman and headed to the NFL. Then came spinal stenosis.
  • I almost felt bad for Eli at times in NY but it occurs to me now no one at home was feeling bad for Eli. Cooper didn’t even get to play his career and his dad was tremendous on terrible teams forever.
  • Awwwllll sry to hear that about Cooper with his back problem but he's Blessed
  • @rkf2746
    I will always wonder how it must have felt to have had a "kind and sweet" dad.
  • @CATownsend777
    I'm a diehard longhorn fan and am so excited to see him on the roster. AND! AND!, if things work out, he could be on a National Championship team. Who knows, if Texas does well, Arch might even get in the game at some point. 🤘

    Great interview. Cooper seems like a great big brother. 43 - 8 😂
