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.

    You guys think we could recruit Elko to o-line as well? He's got tremendous size.

    Brooks wanted to play only OT not guard where Texas needed him to play.

    That is so short sighted.  Knowing the guard position in addition to Tackle when moved back out there would help him a ton in the draft.  By the time he would be ready for the NFL he would have been in the system a while and would have been polished.  As a result he would have been in a much better position in the draft and setting up his NFL career.  Life isn't linear.  Taking less now, or being more well rounded can often end up making you a lot more money in the end.  Who is advising these kids?
