Is this the year the Longhorns finally turn the corner? Former Texas running back Ricky Williams thinks so.
The 1998 Heisman winner said the following about the team elevating its play from average to good.
I think it has to be. For Texas fans, we’ve been waiting, waiting and waiting. Sark has had enough time to get comfortable and find his players. I think this is the year. We keep saying that, but I really like Sark and the way players really respond to him. He’s great with quarterbacks, and he’s got a couple of good ones right now. I think the confidence Texas built in the Bama game is real. I think they can take that and turn it into something special.
The improved development on the Forty Acres perhaps has bought some patience from the fan base. Nevertheless, those who support the program are among the most hungry for success.
Lets break down what Williams had to say in his interview with Chris Hummer of 247Sports.
