Charlie Strong Must Take Action After Texas Players Publicly Rip Each Other

Texas Longhorns football has had a Twitter problem these last few days.

At halftime of Saturday's 50-7 loss to the TCU Horned Frogs, Texas freshman cornerback Kris Boyd apparently retweeted someone who talked about Boyd and freshman linebacker Malik Jefferson transferring to the rival Texas A&M Aggies.

Boyd later apologized for the incident in a statement released by Texas.

Then, on Monday afternoon, junior safety Dylan Haines voiced his frustrations with the Longhorns' 1-4 start, going so far as to call out some of the younger players on the roster during media availability.
