UT Rowing is looking to become a blockbuster hit

1 week ago | texas.rivals.com | Travis Galey

The University of Texas rowing team is easily the most dominant sport at UT that most Longhorn fans don’t know anything about. “We’ve won NCAA championships three out of the last four years, we’re currently ranked number one,” said head coach Dave O’Neill. The Horns could have possibly made it four in a row if not for a flock of geese landing in UT’s lane during the 2023 NCAA championship regatta.

4 weeks ago | bvmsports.com | Travis Galey

The hype surrounding Arch Manning hasn't even come close to reaching its zenith, but it is about to ratchet up quite a bit with spring football now underway. It's Manning's team now and he is doing everything he can to be the unquestioned leader. "I just continue to see a guy who has taken it and is trying to really go for it," Texas football head coach Steve Sarkisian said. "He just doesn't want to leave any stone unturned. He's working at his craft.
Ranking the SEC Quarterbacks

1 month ago | bvmsports.com | Travis Galey

Spring practice is underway, or about to be underway across, the South east (which I'm obviously talking about the conference and not the region because ... you know ...). Spring is the time when teams first start to take shape. Freshmen and transfers get on the field for the first time. Players who have been down on the depth chart, get their chance to make a case for playing time. Fans get their first glimpse of what is to come in the spring game.

Was Cam Newton right about the UT Football program?

1 month ago | bvmsports.com | Travis Galey

Cam Newton knows a thing or two about football. You don't spend 11 seasons in the NFL, be named the league's Most Valuable Player, become an All Pro and a three time Pro Bowler without learning what it takes to be a winner. Which is what makes his interview this week with Texas football head coach Steve Sarkisian so befuddling. In a podcast interview with Sarkisian, Newton chalked Sark's success up to nothing more than dollars. "Look, Coach Sarkisian, all that stuff is cool.
The pre-NFL Draft Test Quinn Ewers Already Aced

1 month ago | bvmsports.com | Travis Galey

Even before he steps onto the field to throw in front of NFL General Managers and scouts at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis Saturday, Quinn Ewers will undergo a battery of interviews, tests and medicals which could have as much, or more, of an impact on where he will be drafted than what he does on the field. But there is one test, which Ewers aced even before he arrived in Indianapolis, that could help sway a GM to take the Texas quarterback higher than many draft pundits are now projecting.
What Sark does right and wrong on 4th down

2 months ago | bvmsports.com | Travis Galey

In the third quarter of Texas' 35-13 win over Mississippi State this season, the Longhorns faced a fourth-and-8 at the Bulldogs 31 yard line. Sarkisian thought about it and decided to kick the 49-yard field goal. Bert Auburn's kick hit the upright and doinked through for the three points. But Mississippi State's Mario Craver was offsides on the play. Sarkisian made the unconventional decision take the points off the board and go for it instead on fourth and three.
