Texas Football: Dissipating linebacker depth more concerning than the secondary

Within the past week, Texas football lost even more depth on the defensive side of the ball at a pretty unfortunate time during fall camp. Starting in the month of July, the Longhorns started to lose some depth in the linebacking corps when senior Edwin Freeman announced his decision to transfer out of the program and become immediately eligible elsewhere. To add fuel to the flame for the departures at linebacker, Demarco Boyd was suspended for some off the field assault issues that are still ongoing.

Now, the Horns are doing without two of the more experienced defensive backs that also transferred out.
