In 2017, the Texas Longhorns receiving corps was a point of confusion to both coaches and fans. In spite of being one of — if not the most — talented groups on the team, the Longhorns struggled to find consistent production from anyone at the receiver position.
That inconsistency was the most present at the inside receiver position.
In 10 of 13 games, the listed starter at inside receiver finished the game with three catches or fewer, and on one occasion the listed starter at that spot was held without a catch. Texas started three different receivers at that spot, in addition to starting Reggie Hemphill-Mapps as a second inside receiver on two difference occasions.
