Texas QBs accomplishing offseason goals

When the Texas Longhorns take the field at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium for the Orange-White game in nine days, fans will have a chance to see new and improved versions of Shane Buechele and Sam Ehlinger, the two quarterbacks seriously competing for the starting job.

“Both of those guys have really accepted and ran with the challenges we gave them in the offseason,” head coach Tom Herman said on Tuesday.

Ehlinger, now a sophomore, took the first big step in addressing the issues from his debut campaign with the Longhorns by avoiding turnovers against the Tigers in the Texas Bowl.
