  07/20/20 - Sam Ehlinger, Sr/2021, Texas, 6-1, 220 (DS#9 QB) + More +

  The University of Texas says it anticipates hosting football games this season at 50% capacity in the stands. Athletic Director Chris Del Conte emailed season ticket holders Monday telling them the school is working closely with Gov. Greg Abbott's office and is following state guidelines on social distancing amid the coronavirus pandemic. Texas said it's still preparing for the season to start Sept. 5 at home against South Florida. The Big 12 has not yet said if it will duplicate moves by the Big Ten and Pac-12 to play only conference games. South Florida plays in the American Athletic Conference. - AP College Football

  07/19/20 - Kobe Boyce, rJr/2022, Texas, 6-0, 175 (DS#999 CB) + More +

  Texas junior Kobe Boyce announced on Saturday that he has decided to focus on his mental health instead of football. A fourth-year cornerback on the UT football team, Boyce revealed in a lengthy message on Twitter that he has been battling depression for the past few years. He went onto write that "Everyone is struggling with something in life especially in these times. Take care of yourself and your mental health because you won't be able to operate in anything you do if your head is not in the right place. That's where I felt I was at and I am going to be taking a step away from football and work on myself." In his post, Boyce thanked his teammates, coaches and family as well as the Texas fans. He also encouraged the Longhorns to win the Big 12's championship. A Youth and Community Studies major, Boyce added that he will still be a student at Texas. - Austin American Statesman

  07/18/20 - DeMarvion Overshown, rSr/2023, Texas, 6-3, 229 (DS#10 OLB) + More +

  Texas football player DeMarvion Overshown has ended his personal boycott and resumed his football career. Overshown tweeted on Thursday that it "Feels good to be back in my element." A UT spokesperson confirmed that Overshown is participating in the team's strength and conditioning program. This is the first week this summer that attendance at the football program's workouts has been required instead of voluntary. On July 2, Overshown announced that he would not take part in any team activities. While explaining his decision, Overshown said he was not pleased with the administration's pace in addressing concerns that a number of student-athletes had made about racial issues on the Texas campus. Overshown said that "I can not continue to perform for a program that doesn't show me the same love and support I do for them." This Monday, Texas did deliver its response to those concerns. The school pledged a series of changes that included the renaming of Robert Lee Moore Hall and an investment into the recruitment of Black students. - Austin American Statesman

  07/15/20 - Sam Ehlinger, Sr/2021, Texas, 6-1, 220 (DS#9 QB) + More +

  Texas senior quarterback Sam Ehlinger was placed on the preseason watch list for the Davey O'Brien Award on Tuesday. The Davey O'Brien Award is presented annually to college football's best quarterback. Previous recipients of this award include Vince Young (2005) and Colt McCoy (2009). Last season, Ehlinger threw for 3,663 yards and 32 touchdowns. Only five quarterbacks who are returning to a FBS-level football team this fall threw for more yards last year. Ehlinger's touchdown passes were bested by six returnees. Ehlinger also ran for 663 yards and seven touchdowns during his junior year. - Austin American Statesman

  On Monday, two members of UT's football team made the cut for the Bednarik Award's preseason watch list. Texas juniors Joseph Ossai and Caden Sterns were two of the 90 names on the annual watch list. The Bednarik Award is given each season to the best defensive player in college football. Ossai led UT last year with his 90 tackles. He ended his sophomore season with a nine-tackle, three-sack performance in the Alamo Bowl. According to Texas, Ossai is the only FBS-level player in the last 20 years to record three sacks and six stops behind the line of scrimmage in a bowl game. Primarily used as a linebacker in 2019, Ossai will soon play off the defensive line more in new coordinator Chris Ash's defense. - Austin American Statesman

  07/09/20 - Brenden Schooler, rSr/2022, Texas, 6-2, 203 (DS#20 FS) + More +

  In early March, about a week before the shutdown, Colin Schooler could dream big. His big brother, Brenden, recently had joined the Arizona Wildcats football team, and Colin envisioned playing alongside his best friend for the first time since high school. "It's going to be a lot easier with him out here," Colin Schooler said. "Whether we're sitting at home or doing whatever, it's just gonna feel like I have some family with me - because I do." In an earlier interview, Brenden Schooler imagined what it would be like to end his college career playing in a bowl game with his younger brother. "It'd definitely be one of the highlights of my life," said Brenden, a graduate transfer from Oregon.

"You always just would look back at that moment and say, 'Oh, we got to share this moment together,' and that'd be pretty special." You know what comes next in this narrative. A pandemic the likes of which hasn't been seen in 100 years. The abrupt and indefinite cancellation of NCAA sports. Lingering uncertainty about the 2020 college football season. The Schooler brothers are both seniors in terms of their football eligibility. They both aspire to play in the NFL. - Arizona Star News

  06/24/20 - *Vince Young, Jr/2006, Texas, 6-5, 229 (DS#3 QB) + More +

  During an appearance on the Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday, former USC star Reggie Bush said that UT legend Vince Young once declined to accept his Heisman Trophy. Bush told McAfee that after the 2005 Heisman Trophy was stripped from him, it was offered to Young. The Longhorn quarterback, however, would not accept the award. On Wednesday, Young took to Twitter to seemingly confirm Bush's story.

Bush was the clear-cut winner of the 2005 Heisman Trophy. He earned 2,541 points to Young's 1,608. USC quarterback Matt Leinart finished in third place with 797 points. Bush eventually forfeited the award after USC was hit with heavy sanctions due to the improper benefits received by its star running back. Bush said he had not talked about Young's call until recently. He added that former Texas coach Mack Brown had been supportive of his quarterback's choice. Texas would have had its third winner of the Heisman Trophy had Young made a different decision. - Austin American Statesman

  06/23/20 - Anthony Cook, rSr/2023, Texas, 6-0, 188 (DS#27 FS) + More +

  Less than two weeks after he tweeted that he will "not be playing another snap for the University of Texas," Anthony Cook has reportedly entered the NCAA's transfer portal. Multiple media outlets reported on Tuesday that Cook's name now appears in the transfer portal. A 6-1, 185-pound cornerback, Cook has two years of eligibility remaining. A Texas spokesperson was unable to immediately confirm those reports. On June 11, Cook abruptly announced that he had played in his last game at Texas. Cook's tweet about his departure was later deleted. Less than two weeks later, however, it appears that Cook is gone for good. Cook was considered a four-star talent when he signed with Texas in December of 2017. As a freshman, he was inserted into the starting line-up at Oklahoma State following the suspensions of Kris Boyd and Davante Davis. The following year, he started six times. - Austin American Statesman

  06/12/20 - Anthony Cook, rSr/2023, Texas, 6-0, 188 (DS#27 FS) + More +

  Texas defensive back Anthony Cook abruptly announced late Thursday that he was leaving the Longhorns for undisclosed reasons. The tweet was later deleted. "Due to unfortunate situations I will not be playing another snap for the University of Texas," Cook tweeted. "Has nothing to do with anyone or anything. Please respect my decision." Cook was a sophomore last season and started in seven out of 25 career games. He was part of coach Tom Herman's breakout recruiting class in 2018 and considered to be in the mix for a starting job this fall. Cook was the fifth-rated prospect on the American-Statesman's Fab 55 list and a five-star recruit after finishing his high school career at Houston Lamar. - Austin American Statesman

  06/05/20 - *Caden Sterns, Jr/2021, Texas, 6-0, 202 (DS#5 FS) + More +

  Dozens of University of Texas football players marched with Austin police officers from campus to the state Capitol to honor the memory of George Floyd on Thursday. Many of the players locked arms on the two-mile walk that stopped on the north side of the Capitol, the opposite side of the building from where protesters have gathered for several days. Once there, the group and police officers took a knee for nine minutes to symbolize the amount of time Floyd was detained on the ground by Minneapolis police before he died. "This protest won't just stop here," junior safety Caden Sterns said. "To the white community...if you want change like you say you do, you must change. What I mean is, you must realize, and the oppressor must realize, you are oppressing." The players were joined by coach Tom Herman. "I'm so proud," Herman told the players, urging them to "be agents of change." - AP College Football
