Connor Robertson Announces His Return 2026

[CJ Vogel]

Another key piece of news for the 2026 Texas Longhorns. 

Connor Robertson is back for next fall!

[Jonesyfam7]

Another key piece to the puzzle.  It’s all coming together.

[Dread-headed Texan]

When experience comes back title odds go up🤘🏿

[Shane]

Heck of a day ! Welcome back Connor !🤘🏻

[Jonesyfam7]

One thing that most likely won’t get talked about enough but should…..returning a guy that will have been in the offense as long as Robertson is huge for making the calls and getting everyone aligned when breaking in two new starters and potentially Baker moving from Tackle to Guard.

Yessir. Experience in the system and knowing how to teach the new pieces around him is undervalued and huge for us. 

[f1revo]

Is he expected to start or be the reserve again? If the former, who is expected to be the reserve Center?

[Sundancekid]

He will start most likely unless he gets recruited over which I doubt.

[Jerky]

C Robertson wasn't coming back unless we needed him.

TX has only 1 OL transfer to TX so far. Doubting we add Wiscy OL Brunner, maybe Indiana. Ditto Yale OL Bennett, Oregon and Indiana battling for him. C Cruz transferred. 

Texas needs Robertson. Good to have him coming back.

Should be a special upcoming season.

He will be the starting center

Even though he isn't perfect I think it's great to have a guy with his experience in the system at C. Still need to find some better guards, though.

[antcan95]

Was he expected to transfer out?

[Aspann85]

@CJ Vogel Can we get a list of guys that aren’t signed yet and where they stand? According to other boards, we are about to lose anyone not first team bc we don’t know how to manage a roster haha.

[David Yancey]

Let’s freakin go

This is an underrated take 

[AusMOJO]

I'm not as sold on him at C as some are, but glad he's back and hope he wins the job.
