Texas football is very deep at quarterback entering 2018, but that will create an intense position battle in fall camp. The two highlighted candidates here include sophomore Sam Ehlinger and junior Shane Buechele. With the favorite to win the job likely Ehlinger, or even a freshman when it’s all said and done this year, Buechele’s path with the program in his remaining two years of eligibility is unclear.
The two incoming freshmen in the former Oklahoma Sooners commit Cameron Rising and the ever elusive Casey Thompson both could have a shot at winning the starting job at some point.
