Longhorns Daily News: Texas’ Steve Sarkisian: As starter, QB Maalik Murphy did a lot of things ‘he should be proud of’

In announcing redshirt sophomore quarterback Quinn Ewers will be back under center this week versus TCU, Texas Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian also elaborated on backup redshirt freshman Maalik Murphy’s taking over signal-caller duties in recent weeks.
