The former Alabama Crimson Tide rising junior wideout Tyrell Shavers just found a home with Mississippi State, picking the Bulldogs over Texas football.

It appears that head coach Tom Herman along with recently hired offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich and recently promoted wide receivers coach Andre Coleman are still in the market of finding more wide receiver help outside of what’s on the current roster. The Texas football program already looked for help in the NCAA Transfer Portal once this offseason at the wide receiver position when they landed former Michigan Wolverines graduate transfer and rising senior Tarik Black.
