ARLINGTON, Texas — At Big 12 Media Days, Burnt Orange Nation was able to catch up with Bruce Feldman, college football writer for The Athletic and commentator for FOX Sports.
Our conversation is lightly edited for clarity.
Bruce: The best competitor in college football right now.
W: The best?
B: Of players, yes. This is more than one sentence — I think Texas takes on his personality in a little bit of the way that Florida did with Tim Tebow. I think the difference is the way — he’s not Baker Mayfield personality-wise — but when Baker played and you watched his games, everyone in that stadium knew that he was the best player on the field.
