Texas signed 20 players in the portal and more than half seem to have a good chance at starting next season:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Rasheem Biles, LB: The Pitt transfer seems set at one of the linebacker spots based on past achievements as well as an impressive spring. He seems like a preseason All-SEC candidate.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Laurence Seymour, G: He hasn\u2019t officially joined the program yet, but has been cleared by the NCAA for a sixth season. His starting experience at Miami and Western Kentucky makes him a favorite to win the left guard spot.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Melvin Siani, OT: The Wake Forest transfer started all 13 games at right tackle last season and will likely do the same at Texas after a strong spring.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Cam Coleman, WR: One of the highest-paid transfers this season has met all of Texas’ expectations this spring and looks poised for a monster season.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Raleek Brown, RB: He had an All-Big 12 season at Arizona State and is expected to share the backfield load with fellow transfer Hollywood Smothers.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Hollywood Smothers, RB: The former North Carolina State star joins Brown in the revamped backfield.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Bo Mascoe, CB: The former Rutgers starter has drawn praise from teammates and coaches and seems locked in as one of the starting cornerbacks entering the summer.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Michael Masunas, TE: Masunas started this last season for Michigan State and helps fill a void left by the early draft entree of Jack Endries. He has one remaining year of eligibility.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Gianni Spetic, K: After three years as a starter at Ohio and Memphis, he replaces the graduated Mason Shipley and has one remaining year of eligibility.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Mac Chiumento, P: Chiumento arrives for one season at Texas after starring last year at Florida State; he’s the only punter on the spring roster.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Trey Dubuc, LS: Dubuc played at New Mexico the past two seasons and replaces four-year starter Lance St. Louis. Dubuc has two remaining years of eligibility.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Texas signed 20 players in the portal and more than half seem to have a good chance at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":254269,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[50005,261,46466,3231,27,29,537,536,28,3774],"class_list":{"0":"post-254268","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-texas","8":"tag-cam-coleman","9":"tag-college-football","10":"tag-ncaa-transfer-portal","11":"tag-steve-sarkisian","12":"tag-texas","13":"tag-texas-headlines","14":"tag-texas-longhorns","15":"tag-texas-longhorns-football","16":"tag-texas-news","17":"tag-transfer-portal"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254268","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=254268"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/254268\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/254269"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=254268"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=254268"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=254268"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
