Texas 2025/26 offensive preview: With the departure of star Qb W.Gonzales to the pros, this is first time Coach Dorsey has to name a new starting Qb at Texas. Gonzales isn't easy to replace either, he led the nation in passing yards and was near the top in td's thrown the last 2 years. We've heard from Coach Dorsey today that he's named highly recruited true freshman Jermaine Yates as the starter. Yates is out of Turlock, California and enrolled early at Texas for a chance to play early. Sophomore Rb R. Smith is still the starting Rb. Smith was a true freshman last yr and started 9 or 10 games. In the Texas offense after Qb, the WR position is probably the most important position. Outside of J.Cummings the JR WR who has basically been a starter since he was a true freshman, the #2, #3, #4 Wr's all have question marks around them. Kane the #2 Wr is a former JUCO recruit who has problems catching the ball. #3 and #4 Wr's are both former highly recruited recruits with Mckinley being the #1 WR recruit and Moore being the #5 WR in the same class. Both are RS freshmans and have never played a down of college football. Texas does have a very good TE in SR Tate but like Kane, he drops the ball too much. Oline lost 3 starter's so we'll see how the new guys play. Especially the true freshman at LT. Texas is thin at OL, thanks to the former coaching staff, so any injury will be huge. Defense preview will be out shortly.
