Jeff Howe, CJ Vogel and Hank South evaluate Texas’ 2026 freshman class at the halfway point of the season. Jermaine Bishop Jr., Richard Wesley and Derrek Cooper have separated themselves as the Longhorns’ “Big Three,” and the offense consistently looks more dangerous when Bishop and Cooper are involved. With Texas entering must-win territory, both freshmen need significantly larger roles during the second half of the season.

Wesley is also positioned for a major opportunity following Colin Simmons’ injury, bringing explosive pass-rush ability and infectious energy despite being young enough to still be in high school. The crew also identifies Kosi Okpala as the freshman most likely to join the leading trio, especially as Texas searches for additional pressure, linebacker depth and defensive playmakers ahead of Ole Miss.

Jeff Howe, Bobby Burton and Rod Babers identify realistic in-season fixes for a Texas offense producing three-and-outs at a historically poor rate. The Longhorns must simplify the attack, turn perimeter throws to Ryan Wingo and Jermaine Bishop into an extension of the running game and repeatedly use the bunch, stack and unbalanced formations that have already generated explosive plays. The message for Steve Sarkisian is clear: stop abandoning what works and play the hits.

The crew also examines potential personnel changes involving Derrek Cooper, the offensive line and heavier use of 10 personnel. With Texas unlikely to become an offensive juggernaut overnight, smarter fourth-down decisions and better field position must help the Longhorns lean on their defense. Plus, the guys explain why improved tackling, a larger role for Raheem Biles and replacing Colin Simmons’ production will be critical against Ole Miss.

Jeff Howe and CJ Vogel examine how Texas can survive the potential loss of Colin Simmons, the nation’s leading pass rusher and the Longhorns’ most irreplaceable defender. Simmons leads Texas with 10.5 sacks, 16 tackles for loss and 26 pressures, leaving Will Muschamp without a simple one-for-one replacement. Five-star freshman Richard Wesley could receive the biggest opportunity after flashing elite physical tools, violent finishing ability and the swagger needed to energize the defense.

The guys also explain why Lance Jackson must turn his near-misses into sacks and how Raheem Biles, Brad Spence, Maraad Watson and Hero Kanu could help replace Simmons’ production collectively. With Ole Miss quarterback Trinidad Chambliss thriving against the blitz, Texas must generate pressure without losing containment—and every opportunity to bring him down has to count.

Jeff Howe, Bobby Burton, Bob Shipley and Brian Erwin explain why Texas can no longer win a championship without making major offensive changes. The coaches break down how the Longhorns moved the ball effectively on their opening script before abandoning the perimeter throws, screens, jet action and running concepts that worked. They also examine the alarming number of unblocked defenders and why Steve Sarkisian must adapt his offense to the players he has.

The panel debates whether Arch Manning has become “shell-shocked,” pointing to his problems recognizing pressure, anticipating open receivers and trusting his instincts. Coach Irwin also argues that Sark’s dual role as head coach and offensive coordinator is beginning to damage his game management, including two failed fourth-down attempts that helped Florida score 21 points. Is it time for Texas to hire an offensive coordinator and let Sark focus on leading the entire program?
