Texas football is wrapping up the first week of their annual preseason fall camp. From early reports, it appears the camp is going as well as Steve Sarkisian and company envisioned.
Earlier this week we mentioned that Kelvin Banks is off to a strong start. Rave reviews keep pouring in for the mammoth-sized freshman offensive linemen.
Bobby Burton, Eric Nahlin and Justin Wells of Inside Texas published a great recap of what they have seen through the first couple practices.
Burton tempered expectations with a thought I am sure is common among the Longhorns’ fanbase. While the Texas roster has a number of great players, particularly at running back and wide receiver, Burton feels that they do not have overwhelming depth.
On a more positive note, the trio discussed the talent advantage Texas could have over Big 12 teams. Justin Wells commended Isaiah Neyor, calling him, “a true NFL prospect.” Burton echoed Wells’ praise of Neyor.
Here are a few takeaways from the camp’s first week.
