2010 Texas Longhorns team thread

I agree. But for true football fans, we can appreciate a dominant running game and what it does to a defense.

I am going to be really pissed off if we don't have an elite back emerge this year. Jeremy Hills also looked really good after doing nothing since his arrival.

he never really has gotten a chance, hopefully they will use him more, he's another fast ****er

hopefully not, that would be awful, fozzy's our most explosive/elite back we have if we can keep him healthy, it will probably be fozzy/tre and whaley on third/fourth and short, i'm still skeptical about him after seeing him getting arm tackled by db's, anybody can run over a 175 lb db lol

I saw Whaley completely truck DBs a couple of times. It's a spring game, I'll wait until a game that counts to make judgements on toughness.

InsideTexas
DE Russell Carter and S Ben Wells have elected to transfer.


yay, now we have scholarship room for the 2011 class!

[legendkiller5]

Not Ben Wells. :/ Not surprised with Blake, Nolan, Christian, etc., but still.

He cant compete with the coach's kids.

Kenny-V is coming up too. There is no real PT opportunity for him.

Sad to see the big-hitter go, but this shouldnt really affect the Horn's D at all.

And as previously stated, this opens the door for some more Elite recruits to come to DB U.
