Texas Football: The worst day of 2020 so far in NCAA Transfer Portal

What was double-dose of bad news for the Texas football program along the defensive line on Jan. 21, head coach Tom Herman figured out that he would be losing two key experienced seniors to the NCAA Transfer Portal. Both senior defensive tackles Gerald Wilbon and D’Andre Christmas-Giles had their intentions surface to put their names in the transfer portal on the same day.

The reports came about from 247Sports that both Wilbon and Christmas-Giles could be departing from the Texas Longhorns football program on Tuesday. Those are the two most experienced defensive tackles that the Longhorns had left coming back for the 2020 season.
