Nick Townsend & Texas Weapons Ready to EXPLODE This Season

Bobby Burton and Gerry Hamilton identify four Longhorns who appear ready to make major jumps after the opening practices of fall camp. Nick Townsend has added approximately 15 pounds without sacrificing his athleticism, creating potential matchup problems at tight end. Brandon Baker’s move from tackle to guard could also unlock his full potential and transform him into an All-SEC performer and early-round NFL Draft prospect.

 

Defensively, Brad Spence appears perfectly suited for Will Muschamp’s aggressive system after earning a place on every assistant coach’s list of Texas’ best 11 defenders. Zina Umeozulu has also added significant size while retaining the explosiveness that could make him one of the Longhorns’ most dangerous pass rushers. Plus, Bobby and Gerry discuss additional breakout candidates and why Kade Phillips may be the most important player Texas needs to emerge.
