For the second straight off-season, the Texas football program could be set to pursue a former Rice Owls graduate transfer. Last off-season, Texas football was able to nab the former Rice offensive tackle Calvin Anderson off the grad transfer market to fill a hole in the offensive line. This off-season, it could be Texas football getting some help in the trenches on the other side of the ball.
According to an interview with the Texas Longhorns SB Nation fan site Burnt Orange Nation, Texas football could be on the right path to land a key graduate transfer defensive tackle from Rice Zach Abercrumbia.
