A Texas tight end has never won the award since it was established in 2000.

I like it. Hopeful for a big year with Masunas.

On the offensive side I think hw will be the suprise, especially in the passing game.  Texas has too many weapons and itll leave Masunas on a less athletic linebacker.  Probably be number 4 in the you worry me area after all 3 wr and a rb.  Plus the fact that he is known as a blocker will catch some off guard and itll be easy for Sark to scheme some open looks.

Would be nice if that changed this season.

Nice recognition for Masunas. Getting on the Mackey Award watch list is a good way to start the season, and hopefully he can turn it into a big year.

How did David Thomas not win it in 2005?!

I wondered that myself.
