Texas football
On Saturday, the Texas Longhorns held the team’s second scrimmage of spring practice head of next Saturday’s Orange-White game at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. Following the scrimmage, Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian met with the media via Zoom to share his perspective on the 12th practice and where the Longhorns football program stands currently with only three practices remaining.
“I thought pretty much in all areas, all facets, we improved individually by player wise and then by unit wise. I think ultimately we improved as a team; we’re not where we need to be yet,” Sarkisian said. “There’s a lot of areas for us to get better at, but the encouraging part is we knew this was gonna be a big week from a developmental standpoint and I think the guys really responded.”
