Hook ‘Em!

From College Station to Austin!

Texas lands former Texas A&M freshman offensive tackle Jonte Newman out of the transfer portal.

Newman, originally out of Bridgeland High in Cypress, Texas, makes the move from the Aggies to the Longhorns after just one year. Newman had committed to the Aggies pretty early in his recruitment after being pursued heavily by Texas and many others.

Now, Kyle Flood and Steve Sarkisian get an additional offensive tackle piece for the depth of the offensive line with a very toolsy option.

    Your aggy friends also worship a bunch of dead dogs and are in a cult led by a guy named Billy. So…

    Did he have a run in with the law like the last guy?

    It actually makes sense. Coaching staff put values on our OL depth and several did not believe in said value or path to field, so they transferred.

    This kid likely has a better handle on his actual value, knows he'll be depth in 2026, and is willing to wait. There also the added possibility he hated living in B/CS which would be no surprise and only add to his desire to transfer.
