Texas Longhorns revive old-school goal line formation to fix red zone issues

I spent the early part of today enjoying some college football and had two clear observations hit like a truck.  First, everything we speak about in

No more TROs, no more hypotheticals: It's time to spot the dang ball

It’s been a minute since my weekly 3-2-1 Friday's during the Texas football season.  I opted not to make one for Texas State last week because,

3-2-1: Three Things We Know, Two We Don’t and One Question We Want Answered Ahead of Ohio State

After a 59-7 thrashing of Texas State in Week 1, Texas faces its first true test of the 2026 season, and it's arguably the Longhorns' biggest one.

COLUMBUS — Ohio State defensive end Kenyatta Jackson Jr. even talked to the kicker.   Two or three years ago, Jackson may not have made his way over

We view Kenyatta Jackson Jr. as having similar physical traits and position-specific skills to Smith. Both are around 6-foot-5 with considerable length and a frame to add weight. Smith had a 35+ inch arm at the NFL Combine. Jackson measured with an 82-inch wing-span prior to his senior season. Both register as solid, not elite athletes for the position and win with their length, jump off the ball and bend around the edge. Jackson showed his pass rush skill set as a senior at Hollywood (Fla.) Chaminade-Madonna while racking up 18 sacks and leading his team to a state title.

Not enough on film yet to project a level. Add more game film and verified measurables to unlock a full projection.

Elite / Top 100

Kenyatta Jackson Jr. entered the week at Under Armour coming off of a strong senior season that saw him named Florida’s Gatorade Player of the Year and help his team to a state title. The Ohio State signee looks to have leaned out a bit since last off-season. He’s a tall, lean pass rusher with very good length. We like Jackson’s bend around the edge, as well. He should continue improving as he continues to elevate his play strength.
