AUSTIN -- Texas offensive coordinator Tim Beck spoke with the media for the first time in two weeks following Wednesday's practice. Beck recently missed time due to a bacterial infection in his elbow.

"Just had an infection that ran wild on me a little bit," said Beck, who was still wearing a wrap on his right arm with a sling.

Beck went to the hospital following practice on Sept. 26 -- the Wednesday leading up to Texas' 19-14 win over Kansas State in Manhattan. He said he was running a high temperature. Doctors then discovered a bacterial infection in his elbow.
