Texas WR Joshua Moore faces a crucial spring amid heightened competition

The next few weeks will mark the most crucial stretch of Joshua Moore’s young tenure with the Texas Longhorns. Perhaps even his entire football career thus far.

On Saturday, the Longhorns will begin spring practice and Moore is among the trio of former highly-touted talents set to contend for the Texas vacancy in the slot following Lil’Jordan Humphrey’s early departure to the NFL. Moore, however, maybe more than any other former high school All-American currently — or soon to be — calling the Texas wide receiver room home, is faced with pressure to make the most of the newly-opened opportunity as the slot receiver.
