Would really like to see Neto get that first team guard spot. Nothing against Conner, he just doesn’t have the upside and frankly I don’t think he’s better right now

Gonna think of Sydir as Syrup until he gets it under one Coburn one the scales.

Hopefully moore’s ability to get to the quarterback translates to SEC level because we and our defensive backs sure do need that help

Agree with this 100%

Have to get the QB to the ground in the SEC … way too much speed at skill spots

I'm not panicking but do hope we can find a nice big guy who can stand his ground on running plays, Maybe Sydir Mitchell is that guy if he can get in proper shape

My point is the staff needs to make plans for the season that don’t require a 2 gapping DT in the portal. It would be great, but there is no guarantee that type of player shows up or Texas wins that recruitment. If you are asking Collins/Broughton/Bledsoe to 2 gap, success is not likely. They are all guys capable of shooting gaps and stunting in ways the Murphy and Sweat could not. Long story short, PK may need to make some adjustments to get the most out of his defense.

Thanks Gerry. Has the full spring practice schedule been posted? I tried to google it but can’t find it anywhere.

What’s the deal with Sydir Mitchell? Lazy? He has big time potential

Needs to hear that Bo Davis bus rant again. Look at what that did for T'Vondre Sweat.

Jordan Washington looked much better than I anticipated. The way he’s filled out his frame in such a short time tells me he’s gonna be special down the road.
