Watch: Arizona WR coach breaks down newest Texas player Brenden Schooler

Check out these two videos from the newest Texas Longhorns wide receiver Brenden Schooler. He should be a weapon on offense.

The Texas Longhorns seem to be stocking up at the wide receiver position. They brought in Tarik Black from Michigan earlier in the offseason to help out a group that lost the production of Devin Duvernay and Collin Johnson. Brennan Eagles, Jake Smith, Jordan Whittington and Joshua Moore all return and are expected to have large roles within the offense. However, it wasn’t enough bodies at the position and Texas felt the need to bring in another transfer wideout.

Brenden Schooler is the latest player to join the Texas Longhorns roster this week, making him the second after Gabriel Watson. Recently in the Longhorns latest scrimmage, Tom Herman mentioned that the team ran out 12 personnel all practice long due to the lack of bodies at the position. The team obviously being cautious this close to the start of the college football season.

Arizona wide receivers coach Taylor Mazzone broke down Schooler  back in December.

The first thing that pops out is his precise route running. He is able to avoid being jammed at the line and creates some separation from the defender. This comes in handy creating a throwing window for the quarterback. He has soft hands which did well for him as a safety. Schooler can provide depth and experience at the wide receiver position as well as special teams. He should be able to carve out quite the role for himself in Mike Yurcich’s offense.
