The Longhorns are still vying for a spot in the conference title game as the Big 12’s best chance to qualify for the four-team College Football Playoff. After missing two games due to a throwing shoulder injury, quarterback Quinn Ewers returned to the team last week. However, 1,000-yard runner Jonathan Brooks suffered an ACL tear in his right knee during the team’s victory over TCU, forcing him to miss the remainder of the season.
Following a 30-point setback against Oklahoma at the end of September, Iowa State has won four of its last five games. With two games remaining, the Cyclones, who finished 1-2 in non-conference play, have a chance to make it to the Big 12 title game for the second time in four years. additionally Texas Longhorns early enrollees from the 2020 class are currently at home with their families, enduring the coronavirus pandemic, rather than getting ready for the Orange-White game and participating in spring practice. However, the school did release the players’ jersey numbers and most recent weights over the weekend when the roster was updated.
Quarterback Hudson Card. The Lake Travis product is currently listed at 183 pounds, which is two pounds lighter than he was listed when he signed back in December. Since Card has the thinnest frame of any Longhorns quarterback since Case McCoy, getting stronger and adding some mass is a big priority for him in the offseason, so hopefully he has a home setup conducive to those goals Safety Xavion Alford. Listed at 182 pounds, Alford is two pounds lighter than his listed weight from December. He’s coming back from a knee injury that cost him most of his senior season, so ensuring that he’s fully healed from that is the biggest immediate priority before he competes for special teams reps this fall.
With the move to a four-man front, senior defensive end Jacoby Jones has dropped 10 pounds down to 265. Redshirt freshman defensive lineman Myron Warren is up 20 pounds to 290, so consider him officially an inside player moving forward. Sophomore nose tackle T’Vondre Sweat continues to gain weight — he’s up to 335 pounds from 320 pounds last season. Sophomore Jack linebacker Byron Vaughns is listed at 225 pounds, 20 pounds lighter than last season. Sophomore linebacker Ayodele Adeoye is down five pounds to 245 pounds, likely in an effort to improve his range from sideline to sideline. After missing the regular season last year, sophomore offensive tackle Reese Moore is listed at 285 pounds, down from 295 pounds in 2019. At the Spur position, the term for the nickel back in Chris Ash’s defense, sophomore Chris Adimora is up from 185 pounds last season to 212 pounds now.
