Offseason strength and conditioning is a pillar of any successful football program, so the physical development by Texas Longhorns S&C coach Torre Becton that has helped send 25 players to the NFL Combine over the last two seasons has earned Becton some interest from the NFL.
A contract extension will keep Becton on the Forty Acres, according to Monday reports from Orangebloods and Inside Texas.
Team success creates individual accolades at the coaching level with two assistants recently departing — safeties coach Blake Gideon left his alma mater to become the defensive coordinator at Georgia Tech, and despite Sarkisian initially fending off interest from the Dallas Cowboys and several other NFL teams, the Detroit Lions eventually convinced Texas running backs coach Tashard Choice to take over the same role with Lions, reuniting choice with Jahmyr Gibbs, the player he recruited to Georgia Tech.
