Texas booster McCombs on season: We don't have the horses

If there is anyone who would be looking forward to Texas’ upcoming season, you figure it would be one of their top boosters — a man who has poured over $100 million into the university. But Longhorns booster Red McCombs says he is not optimistic about what the football team will do this season.

“I’m extremely optimistic that this is going to be a great college football season, but the Longhorns won’t be sharing in that,” McCombs said Tuesday via MySanAntonio.com’s Mike Finger. “I don’t believe they have the horses.”

Based on what he has been told by head coach Charlie Strong, this will be a rebuilding year for Texas and its second-year coach.
