The No. 19 Texas Longhorns will open the challenging 2020-21 season against the UT-Rio Grande Valley Vaqueros on Wednesday at 7 p.m. Central on Longhorn Network.
The fifth season under Texas head coach Shaka Smart features 12 returning players who produced all the points, assists, rebounds, and minutes last season — the Longhorns are the only team in the country that can boast that level of returning production. In addition, Smart signed Vandegrift product Greg Brown III, a forward who was ranked as the No. 9 product nationally, according to the 247Sports Composite ranking.
Brown is in the mix to start in his Longhorns debut.
