Many members of the Texas Longhorns’ #fUTure19 class made their college debuts on Saturday night as part of a 45-14 win over Louisiana Tech. In fact, nearly half of the freshmen class got some run in this one.
The NCAA redshirt rule, which made its debut last season, allows scholarship players to play up to four games without burning their redshirt. To keep track of how many games each freshman has appeared in throughout the season, I’ll list the number of games next to their names.
The 12 freshman participants from week one included: WR Jake Smith, TE Jared Wiley, CB Chris Adimora, WR Marcus Washington, CB Kenyatta Watson, RB Jordan Whittington, QB/RB Roschon Johnson, LB David Gbenda, S Tyler Owens, DE T’Vondre Sweat, LB Marcus Tillman, OL Javonne Sheperd
