Guilbeau and Black would see a solid rotation. Guilbeau by a hair for now.

So if Guilbeau moves to the other Corner spot, who fills in at Nickel?

[Atxdubstep]

As of right now, who would be punt and kickoff returners? Who might be next up in those spots?

That is going to be interesting. Texas likely gets a bigger role out of Silas Bolden in 2024 if he was able to arrive at the turn of the semester vs. in June. Instead, he was lumped into one spot on the WR room which was ultimately won by DeAndre Moore.

But for a guy like Mosley, I think there will be a continuously growing role within the offense. Will all be up to him in terms of how quickly and how much of the offense he is able to handle.

For Endries, I envision him being the day one starter and I believe an Endries and Washington/Spencer 12 personnel look will be very potent come this fall.

On the Endries point, we’ve heard a ton about Emaree Winston—probably more than any other TE. How does he fit into the picture at the position given his seemingly productive spring?

Mosely went to Stanford.  Learning won't be an issue

Who is the hustle guy on this 25 team ala Silas Boldin?

1. Yes. Would like to hear more about every offensive lineman. Right now, he's doing fine, but I wouldn't say he lit the world on fire  this spring.

2. Would expect Mosely to start outside, keep Moore on the interior.

I don't want anyone to keep Livingstone off the field.  I think he is going to have a big year in 2025.

Could be a bit early. Will have to see how everything plays out legally before throwing out any type of prediction or justification one way or the other.

But ultimately, this will be a wakeup call for Brooks and the Texas staff. He had a tremendous spring on the field. The best thing for him this summer would be to stick around guys close to the program and come head down ready to work for summer conditioning. 

Thanks and I agree it's a bit too soon.

But it's a reminder that the coaching staff and the team leadership cannot ever relax when it comes to team discipline and off-the-field matters.

All the hard work can go up in smoke (pardon the pun) in a moment when discipline and self-control are allowed to lapse. And in the NIL era the players have more at risk than ever before.

Hopefully this incident can serve as a reminder for all involved without serious long term damage being done.

Hook 'Em!

Can you give a summary of Kobe Black’s spring?
