3 takeaways from Texas coordinators' availability: Tim Beck unconcerned about offense; defense fully installed

On Wednesday, both offensive coordinator Tim Beck and defensive coordinator Todd Orlando oozed confidence as they met with the media to preview Saturday's opener against Maryland.

1. Orlando 'a lot more aggressive' with defensive install

Texas defensive coordinator Todd Orlando walked into his media session on Wednesday evening with Maryland's depth chart still half-tucked into his shorts. Maybe for good reason, too.

After all, Orlando and his defense have to essentially prepare for two quarterbacks since Maryland interim head coach Matt Canada declined to name a starter for Saturday, despite saying he already knows who it will be.
