Consistency and removing doubt are key to Texas WR Troy Omeire’s return to the field

Nose tackle Keondre Coburn likes to call Texas Longhorns redshirt freshman receiver Troy Omeire, “Little Julio,” as in little Julio Jones.

The “little” aspect of that isn’t to be taken too literally, because, well, there’s nothing little about the 6’3, 220-pound Omeire, who’s already listed as the same size as Jones and is already noticeably larger than another elite in Arizona Cardinals receiver DeAndre Hopkins.

If there’s an eye test, Omeire passes it. But as for actually turning that eye test into on-field productivity and validating Coburn’s nickname for him, Omeire has a couple more unique tests to pass.
