AUSTIN, Texas — On Monday morning, the Texas Longhorns went through the fourth spring practice at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, the second practice in full pads for head coach Steve Sarkisian’s team.
The standard established last year is already apparent in the stadium — joining the list of conference champions is the 2023 team, the goal that the players worked towards when pushing through fatigue in the sweltering Austin heat last summer, looking up at the years of those previous champions.
On the sidelines were several recruits, including quarterback commit KJ Lacey, who earned on invitation to the Elite 11 finals after a strong performance at the Austin regional on Sunday, and Katy Jordan wide receiver Andrew Marsh, a key target who plans on taking an official visit in June.
