Michael Taaffe…

Big, big news for the Longhorns secondary. Beyond just play on the field, Taaffe will be huge for the continuity of the culture in the locker room and behind the scenes. Taaffe was a 2nd team All-American as well.

Now, it is all about finding his running mate in the back end. Will it be a healthy Derek Williams Jr., Jelani McDonald, or a young cat. We will see, but what a return for Texas.

Awesome video he posted. Also cool to see which players have commented on his post about running it back. Can speculate who is staying and who might hit the portal based on who commented

I’ve noticed one person who has not lol.

Feel like McDonald is a lock at least early . Let Williams get to 100%

The diversity of the defense is going to be so fluid. PK must come from the bill belichick school of defense. Hogs up front with unique specialists everywhere to show so many incredible looks it has people seeing ghosts. PK makes inexperienced QBs look silly. Also makes the looks arch has gotten entering year 3 that much more educational. Texas football is truly awesome guys.

I know Caleb Downs will be the odds on favorite next year for the Thorpe, but I still think Taaffe should at least be a finalist if he plays like he has done the past three years.  Texas needs to put a video together of all Taaffe’s game changing plays over the years to help promote him for next year.   Downs may be more explosive, but Taaffe has got to have more interceptions and more tackles than him.  At least i would think he would as he has been at Texas longer than Downs at Ohio State.  Plus, Taaffe’s journey is not like any other DB ( walk-on to scholarship player).
