The Texas Longhorns 2024 Spring Roster is out (Friday 12 p.m. CST)

[Gerry Hamilton]

Zac Swanson at 282 is very good to see. Texas likes his motor a lot, if he can have the mass needed. He's now +30'ish pounds since arriving. 

[Gerry Hamilton]

Longhorn Livestream at 1pm central ... CJ Vogel and myself will talk Texas roster, football and recruiting 

 

[Gerry Hamilton]

Jerrick Gibson's first UT height and weight ... 5-10 and 211

[Gerry Hamilton]

Amari Niblack at 231 pounds is ++

[THookem]

This is a very good looking roster.

For sure! The look of a roster with three straight top 5 classes and blue blood portal work!

A thorough analysis of Savion Red's weight:

Juan Davis is 10 lbs lighter and 6 inches taller than Savion Red. 

Savion Red is 35 lbs closer to Jason Kelce's combine weight (280) than Xavier Worthy's (165).

12 Savion Reds weigh as much as the whole starting 11 on Offense in '23 (2880 v. 2852)

Conclusion: Yikes.

He will end up 6-2.5, and 250-255 in time. 

 

Von Miller!

Made a google sheet with all the weight changes from 2023 to 2024. Does not include freshman recruits but does include transfers.

WOW ! 

[Derek Handler]

Really hoping Tre prefers Quintrevion this year.   

[Red Five]

I scanned the roster before reading this thread, and literally laughed out loud when I got to Savion Red.

Best roster top to bottom since 2005. And maybe even... no I'm not going to say it.

Swanson and Bledsoe at 20 and 19 is promising.

[closetojumping]

4 guys at 360lbs or more simply doesn't look good. Sydir Mitchell needs to start mixing in some salads.

[goattalk100]

Credit to Becton for getting these guys ready body wise for the SEC. & credit to the vast majority of the roster for putting in the work early!

[goattalk100]

Also, saw Payton Kirkland listed as bigger than Cam Williams 😳

[Longhornfocus]

Mo Blackwell up 11lbs from last year to 219lbs is a good development

Yep. Hasn't been able to work out much coming off the serious knee injury and surgery.

It more about being decisive. Lot of times RBs were too patient or looked to cut it outside/backside. Sometimes you just have to go.. Why Rojo was better in short yardage situations, than Bijan.
