Longhorn News/Discussion (Non-Recruiting)

NFL Draft Longhorn predictions: Curious to see everyone's guesses.

4th round: Brandon Jones, Devin Duvernay, and Collin Johnson. Really hope one of these guys goes on Day 2 of the draft

5th round: Malcolm Roach

Priority Free Agent: Zach Shackleford and Parker Braun

Other interesting names: Klavon Chaisson 1st round and Jordan Elliot 2nd round

Some updated weights from the official roster:

Jake Majors 313 lbs

Logan Parr 294 lbs

Tyler Johnson 325 lbs

Denzel Okafor 315 lbs

Tope Imade 350 lbs

Willie Tyler 335 lbs

Keondre Coburn 350 lbs

T'Vondre Sweat 335

One you missed (no fault intended) Keaontay Ingram at 6' 235? That fullback weight.

Watching the 2018 RRR game a few times over the past week, it seemed like he was quicker and more explosive before he put on the added weight last year. I would think even more weight would not be a benefit for his skill set.

He increased his straight line speed starting last season so he wasn't slower due to added weight/muscle.

Agreed, but quickness/explosiveness aren't the same as straight line speed. Also thought he played around 220 last year so 235 is a significant increase and a huge increase for a RB from his freshman weight of approx. 200  lbs. Not ideal unless he is going to be more of a thumper style back which wasn't really his forte. Then again, I could be completely off.

IMO, thats a lot on a 6' frame.

Top 50 highest paid coaches in the US. This was for 2019, but they can't be too different now, except for Leach taking the MSU job.

Texas and Herman come in at #7..

Got a question. Have any of you been to Austin recently?  Just wondering how the stadium is coming. I have not seen any pictures recently. It looked really strange when I was there for the LSU game.   If someone is by the stadium. Could you please take some pics and post them

I don't care about pro ball even a little bit, but if I had to bet I would bet that DuVernay will be drafted before Collin.

Honestly, if he isnt staying to earn a degree then why not play and get paid.
