Barron is coming back.

I guess I’m ok with this although he didn’t make a ton of stops last season. So who is the odd man out? Barron, Mukuba, Williams, or Taaffe?

6th year?

I believe so.

What? Barron is the best DB on the team, bud he played hurt.
I think it was KSU? That he came in to stop the pass. Barron is a key part of the defense

Being the best DB on this team isn’t saying a lot. Most people recognize that as the weakness of the team by far. I just remember him getting burned and chasing receivers several times this season, like everyone else. I thought he was better in prior seasons.

No one is " out". Mukuba and Taaffe are both safeties. Most likely there will be a rotation regardless if we get him or not.

As much as we rotate DB’s there really is no odd man out.

Obviously no one will be out. It’s a figure of speech, so excuse the poor phrasing. Whose playing time will be reduced the most? Better?

Looks like we won't have to worry about it.

Washington may not win 8 games in a season for a decade. Hope they enjoyed beating Texas the last 2 years.

That’s too bad. He may have been an upgrade at corner.

Wish he would have stayed. I think I read that PFF had graded him really poorly on pass coverage. He is a tremendous ST player and that may be where he’s most impactful in the NFL

I understand and a lot if people don’t realize that he was injured.
Still he was a 2023 Thorpe Semi Finalist and 2nd team all big 12.
In the star position he killed it.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Are they jumping ship or expected?

Sark will be happy to know this.

Alabama LB Kendrick Blackshire arrived in Austin late yesterday evening, per IT.

Kendrick Blackshire, Alabama, Linebacker

 

[longhornlegend]

Good for him!! Wish him luck and if they play the ags again maybe he can hang an L on them.

Oregon State WR Silas Bolden made it to campus this weekend, per IT.

They do believe he's a take despite the staff adding Golden and things looking really good for Bond because of his special teams ability and allows Sark to open up the playbook a bit more.

Silas Bolden, Oregon State, Wide Receiver

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Academic concerns they’re saying. Hopefully Bond is still a get.
