Latest Practice Notes: Texas’ Most IMPORTANT Defender May NOT Be Colin Simmons | Steve Sarkisian

Jeff Howe, Bobby Burton, Gerry Hamilton and Rod Babers explain why Raheem Biles may be the most indispensable player in Will Muschamp’s defense—even ahead of superstar edge rusher Colin Simmons. Sark has compared Biles’ ability to disrupt practice with Simmons, and Muschamp appears prepared to build a major portion of his aggressive, multiple scheme around the versatile linebacker. The crew also provides the latest on Trevor Goosby’s recovery timeline and how Texas is replacing him without dismantling the offensive line. Plus, the guys discuss a significantly sharper day for Arch Manning and the offense, why explosive plays are essential to Steve Sarkisian’s success and how the Longhorns’ improved depth could prevent one injury from derailing a championship-caliber season.
