On the morning of National Signing Day, head coach Tom Herman and his Texas Longhorns staff were evaluating skill position players as the Horns fully turned the program’s collective attention to the 2020 and 2021 classes.
After asking for the height and weight of prospects, Herman asked for their track times.
“And if the answer is, coach, he doesn’t run track, then I’m going to ask, why not,” Herman said. “You know, there’s a lot of reasons that are perfectly acceptable to us, but it is more difficult because you do get all these, you know, combine and camp times.
