August 5, 20187 yr I'm looking forward to potentially 8 Jr/Sr starters on offense and 10 on defense. If the younger guys play it will be because they are too talented.

August 6, 20187 yr A little backstory on Tom, and his philosophies in coaching: Another Title They Considered: Don’t let your kid go to Ohio state Mrs. Wilson.
August 6, 20187 yr may have been posted, didn't see it espn friday What you need to know: Texas' never-ending quest to find an adequate heir to Colt McCoy continues almost a decade later this season. As a true freshman, Ehlinger showed promise last year, going toe-to-toe with the likes of Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield, who both went top three in the NFL draft. Still, Ehlinger was derailed by catastrophic late-game turnovers that cost Texas games to USC, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech. Ehlinger also battled concussions, paving the way for Buechele to start the Texas Bowl. Buechele has the most experience, but given Ehlinger's upside, he enters the preseason with a leg up in the competition. Projected Week 1 starter: Buechele shouldn't be written off. But at the moment, it would be surprising if Ehlinger didn't start Texas' opener at Maryland. At times last year, Ehlinger had to carry Texas offensively without much help. This year, the Longhorns believe they'll be able to protect Ehlinger better up front, while surrounding him with more firepower at running back and receiver. The Tua factor: If he loses the competition, Buechele will be ready to go should Ehlinger get injured or struggle. But keep an eye on Texas' two true freshmen, Casey Thompson and Cam Rising. Thompson, the son of former Oklahoma wishbone quarterback Charles Thompson, has tremendous athleticism, while Rising impressed with his arm during spring ball. Should both Ehlinger and Buechele falter, Rising or Thompson could get a shot -- especially with the new redshirt rule -- as Texas will consider everything to solidify its quarterback of the future. -- Trotter

August 6, 20187 yr I'm torn a bit on Sam. His biggest problem last year was decision making. Not just making bad throws, but how many times did he have all day to look, then aimlessly scramble to the right and finally chunk it out of bounds when there were receivers available? He wasn't seeing things well imo. You would think that is a deficiency that will improve with reps and experience, but I feel like he should've had a better baseline level as a Freshman.
