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.

    They always do this.  Tell them 27-17 and they will stop.

    People should be stoked. We got a left tackle we had always wanted. Hope he has a great career for us!

    I do not see the point of a portal addition of a young kid who hasn't played...in order to add "depth." The likelihood he provides depth this year is probably less than the likelihood of him leaving again next year. 

    If you are truly looking to add depth, certainly you can find a guy that has significant experience that maybe isn't as talented.
