Eric and Joe discuss how Will Muschamp has become a key part of Texas on- and off-field development for the 2026 season. Muschamp, who is set to be paid almost $3 million per season, is the type of “head coach for the defense” that Steve Sarkisian said in December he wanted in his program. Not only is Muschamp affecting the defensive install, but his fingerprints are on how Texas conducts its offseason workouts.
Eric then shares details about those offseason workouts, explaining how Torre Becton and company have altered a few different facets of the strength and conditioning regimen. There is a lot more focus on strength, including more traditional lifts. There are also a few good, old-fashioned football things going on like mat drills that ask players to be tenacious and physical.
