Under-the-radar Texas defender poised to breakout in 2026 under Muschamp

Will Muschamp and his defensive scheme has been the talk of the town since he's been hired, and for good reason. He's an extremely fun guy to watch on gamedays due to his animation and passion along the sidelines, in addition to the simple fact that he's just a great defensive coordinator.

He's had some elite defenders flourish under him over the years, and it's incredibly safe to say that he'll have some at Texas in 2026 as well. One of those potential players is actually pretty new to the program.

2025 Arkansas transfer LB/DE Brad Spence looked impressive this season when he transitioned to defensive end/BUCK, making consistent plays on a part-time or rotational basis.
