Tyrone Swoopes has behaved like a changed man this offseason. The junior has taken on a leadership role for a team looking to rebound from a disastrous ending to the 2014 season.
If Texas Longhorns junior quarterback Tyrone Swoopes can hold off redshirt freshman Jerrod Heard and turn in a breakout season, it will be because of his Superman-like attributes.
The Texas coaching staff has already suggested that just such a transformation is taking place, with assistant head coach for offense/quarterbacks coach Shawn Watson citing his increased determination and defensive coordinator Vance Bedford saying that Swoopes now has an “edge” to him, something that was notably lacking at times last season.
