So true

Love it

was he taking a shot at his boss's marriage? 🫢

“To be with someone for more than nine years, it’s not just the football,” Flood said.

This is the ninth year Flood and Sark have been together. ”Longer than some marriages,” Flood said.

On Tre Wisner, Flood said he’s “gone all in” on being a great running back. He called Wisner a “tremendous leader” who has “moved into the role of being the heartbeat on offense.”

I asked Flood about 3rd quarter woes in the back half of the season in 2024. Flood says there wasn’t one specific area that caused for tough quarters, but more how the game took on the life of its own. Mentioned he didn’t want to manufacture just to give an answer, but that they certainly aren’t wanting to have dry spells at any point through the game as an OC

DJ Campbell is “super talented” and “super powerful,” Flood said. He added that Campbell can “do some special things” moving people off the ball. Consistency is the key for Campbell, Flood said.

“The closer you are to the ball, the tougher it is for a young player,” Flood said.

Trying to fit the run schemes to specific backs can make the offense easier to defend, Flood said. He added that Texas has “complete backs.”

Flood said in “very few instances” does he not train tackles to play right and left tackle.

Flood: “There should be this feeling for everybody to go out and prove that you’re the best option for us to win a championship with.”

First time I’ve heard Steph’s name in a while good to hear on him and Chapman

Flood says he doesn’t think the offense will be drastically different but that Texas will certainly tailor towards the strength of the personnel on the field. “Systematically, we have a really strong foundation.”

Trevor Goosby is “moving as well in his body as he’s ever been,” Flood said.

On guard depth, Flood mentioned Nate Kibble Connor Stroh and Jaydon Chatman. Chatman, Flood said, gives the line some position flexibility.

Flood says the staff had been doing some work with the Coleman brothers online before they arrived in Austin for the summer. But he has liked seeing how they moved so far this summer.

Bevo!

Flood said Jackson Christian and Nick Brooks progressed nicely throughout the spring. Camp is an “opportunity to show us how far they can move up the depth chart,” he said.

Flood is going to let the personnel come together before he and Sark make the call on a staple run scheme.

Flood said the preferred run scheme changes from year to year. He doesn’t know what it’ll be until it evolves in camp. That’s exactly what I wanted to hear!

Jake Majors “laid a great foundation for us at Texas” at center, Flood said.

Flood seems to have a lot of confidence in Cole Hutson at center.

Cole Hutson “is absolutely ready” to lead the offensive line as the new center.
