From Bobby in today's thread letting more info out. If he's got the okay, we're okay. 

"Wingo is back. He was truly dehydrated. That’s not a one day return. Campbell was a mild concussion. Granted that’s the first time I’ve mentioned the concussion with Campbell but there’s a reason for that.

Unsure why you’re not buying it or what there is to buy. You guys have to trust us a little at least by now."

He also said that Jonah Williams was a full participant.

Herman was such a petty douche. Absolutely the dumbest Mensa genius ever.

Good old Mensa Tom.  I'd bet half of surly is smarter than that guy.  Here are Mensa's requirements for membership via the SAT:

Eleven Warriors projects the OSU 3 deep based on practice observations and insider discussions. Image below. Nothing incredibly surprising. There's debate about Atkinson over Curry and some athletic freak named Julani Thurman not being listed at TE. From the thoughts of people who have been to their practices, the Thurman guy has skillets for hands. Bo Jackson is kicking ass in their fall camp and a few of the mods believe he'll pass Donaldson, if not Peoples, at some point this season.

Was it booze related? Bobby said something about these guys “needing to take care of their bodies”.

My guess would be simply dehydration to the point of vomiting. Anyone curious about why they’d be held out the following day should look into the Korey Stringer story.

it is pretty simple. Texas just put on pads yesterday. It's a long season. The staff should be extremely cautious this time of year. There is nothing to be gained rushing a player back in August.

A little surprised it was the receiver, and not OG, that didn't have himself ready for the heat and dehydration of practice 1. Especially the guy expected to be our top dog receiver this year. Get your shit together son.

appreciate the jab at Satya, but that list has 103 RBs on it. it is pretty meaningless

Tuesday - Bobby

  Hide contents

The loss of Andre Cojoe is significant. Back-up offensive linemen, especially ones with experience inside the program, are very valuable.

Cojoe’s unfortunate injury reveals a thin depth chart at tackle. The only back-up with beyond one semester of experience on campus is Jaydon Chatman.

Sure, Nick Brooks is doing great things.

But let’s remember, this is already a “new” offensive line heading into the season. Brooks, while an outstanding talent, would be yet another new face that must be counted on.

It’s a tough loss for Texas.

The Horns surely can not afford to lose another tackle.

 

I was told I was a pessimist and a doomer for worrying about Cojoe's injury and our O-line depth. Surprise surprise, Burton is worried as well.

And LOL at the notion that the Doak Walker Award watch list means anything. Le'Veon Moss and Reuben Owens are on it as well, I guess that means A&M has a stacked RB room? https://ncfaa.org/awards/doak-walker-award

That state of the DL reminds me a lot of how we as Texas fans probably feel about our OL. Quite a few older guys who have been around a while but don't have a lot of on-field production. Adding Atkinson from UNC was a solid pickup, but I remember someone noting a while back that half his sack production last year came in one game against Florida State.

More true freshmen than expected in that defensive two deep.

They had a shit load of turnover on defense. They showed a graphic during the Rose Bowl and I believe Downs was their only non-senior starter. A lot of 5 and 6 year guys.

I mean it’s just another data point that your concern trolling is unwarranted, not the full picture. Moss is a good back yea?

Moss, yeah

Owens, nah

We mentioned this morning that Jonah Williams is practicing more completely with the team. Now we can report fellow blue chip freshman DB Kade Phillips is no longer truly limited either.

Both had been nursing hamstring issues to start training camp.

One more note: Williams has seen brief action as a kick returner.

**

I’m told freshman wide receiver Kaliq Lockett seems to be improving on a regular basis.

While Daylan McCutcheon had been the first freshman receiver to become “reliable”, Lockett appears next in line.

It should be noted, all four freshman receivers have looked good during camp. Lockett, Jamie Ffrench and even Michael Terry have narrowed the gap that was so evident in spring between themselves and McCutcheon.

**

Graceson Littleton drew yet more praise. Xavier Filsaime also seems to be moving in the right direction.

But perhaps the best news in the secondary is the health and progress of Derrick Williams. I’m told Williams looked especially good on Monday morning.

**

I was also told that on Monday morning, CJ Baxter continued to look good. He “has not been hesitant all camp.”

**

Based on what I have heard, I’d say Maraad Watson and Alex January are your most likely day one starters at DT. I am told Watson is surprisingly athletic and January has just been all business during camp, but really extending back to a point in early winter workouts.

**

Obviously, this is all from yesterday. The team starts Tuesday’s practice just about now (3pm CT).

Yeah, I’m going to stop paying attention to starting DT declarative sentences. I believe OTF said Kanu and Shaw last week. 

They took the field in the first practice as the starting duo. Hence them being referenced as much. 

In reality, everyone gets too focused on who starts at too many positions. QB? Okay, sure. WR or OL? Fine. LB? yeah. But at positions where we know they rotate a ton of guys equally, such as RB, Safety and DL, it doesn't really matter.
