Team Notes
Fatigue: Texas RB
D’Onta Foreman was asked over the weekend when he spoke to the media if the team didn’t really have ‘their legs’ after the rigorous fall camp schedule, and he said that was true. He wasn’t lying. The team has practiced everyday except Sunday for most weeks during fall camp and practiced everyday last week.
While it seems
Charlie Strong may be pushing his guys rather hard with their season opener fast approaching, I wouldn’t be worried. That’s how he’s been with his team since his days at Louisville.
I do expect things to be less physical this week as Texas gets ready for their season opener in 6 days.
Wide Receivers: Spoke with a source regarding where things stand with the wide reciever rotation going into game week and which of the young wide receivers would redshirt.
I’m told
Reggie Hemphill-Mapps will redshirt. I’m also told that
Davion Curtis might redshirt but it doesn’t appear that’s been fully decided.
Starters on the outside, not surprisingly, will be
Collin Johnson and
Burt.
I’m told to expect
Foreman and
Heard to start inside (assuming they’re in 10 personnel). Foreman is also set to run outside behind Johnson.
Dorian will rotate behind Burt. And
Warrick and
Duvernay will rotate behind Foreman and Heard respectively (inside). If they rotate further then look for guys like
Locksley and
Oliver inside and
Joe and
Humphrey outside.
