Depth Chart Snapshot: Where things stand as Texas prepares to open camp

With the Longhorns set to hit the field for the start of preseason practice next week, it’s time for On Texas Football to provide a pre-camp snapshot of the Texas depth chart.

This is what we expect the depth chart to look like when the Longhorns open camp, not a projection of what it will look like when the first official depth chart is released for the Sept. 5 season opener against Texas State. The high school signees (including John Meredith III) and additional players picked up from the transfer portal who weren’t with the team for spring practice have been added to the depth chart, as they weren't included in our post-spring practice snapshot.

According to Steve Sarkisian, Texas will enter camp with a healthy team. Except for offensive lineman Kaden Scherer, who suffered a serious knee injury early in spring practice, the players who missed all or parts of spring practice while recovering from surgery or injuries are on the depth chart.

Where will Cole Huston fit into depth?

Second or third left guard and backup center.

Is Myron Charles really the 2nd team DT, or would a NT play before him in a 4-3 or 4-2-5 defense?  Curious how Charles compares to Sharma or Watson in the pecking order at DT

He’d be the fifth or sixth tackle to go into a game. He’s on par with Sharma but behind Watson. Texas has listed two tackle spots and a nose tackle on the depth chart under Sark. We'll see if it stays that way.

Why is Jonah so low in depth chart can he not win that starting job? Or at least play a good portion of the game

He missed all of spring practice and wasn't cleared from his shoulder surgery until a few weeks ago.

I didn’t realize how many monsters we have at DT. Dominating the line of scrimmage really trickles down to the rest of the defense. Not only can they stop the run, but it will free up pass rushers and prevent WRs from having enough time to get open. 

Davis ahead of Hicks is eye opening. Is Davis that good or is Hicks slower than expected??

Why would he be high on it? What’s he done? Nothing. Stupid question.

I know the reports from the spring seemed good on Rocky Cummings, but I haven’t heard much more about him. Saw he was a backup to Biles. Any update on his development?
