I think an established portal running back would be VERY smart if one can be had. Tre can’t do it all by himself, CJ can’t even stay healthy one full season and nobody else seems ready to be consistent game in and out. 

QW will be playing in the NFL next year.

What’s this about Stewart now?

did terry play a lot of RB in high school? thought he was more of a jumbo WR/TE wildcat QB.

Did play RB, but mostly wildcat QB

I wonder how Terry feels about being shifted to RB when we recruited him at WR because he didnt want to be an RB.  I  believe we won over Oregon because they wanted him to be a RB.  

He didn’t want to be recruited as TE.

The silence on Stewart isn’t reassuring

Stewart is all but gone, would be completely shocking to see him on spring roster 

This thread is the first I've heard on Stewart since the last time we heard about him, which was when it was reported that he hasn't dressed out on the sidelines for home games.

The RB room is going to look much different this time next season.  I have a feeling Texas will hit the portal hard and spend big $$$ to get that room to national championship level for 2026 and beyond.

 Terry was most prominent in the RB role.  But he played everywhere on offense.

I know people like to praise Coach Choice but his RB recruits  have not been great. Hope that changes moving forward but man that sucks. Are we expecting Terry to contribute or is this just a depth move? 

I dont think RB recruiting has been a problem, but rather an inordinate amount of injuries.  You may say "well recruit more RBs", but there is a cap on all of these positions.  JMO

Wisner

Baxter (when healthy)

Clark 

Simon

Niblet

 

why do we need Terry to move?  He’s still learning WR

Niblett is a gagdet player, Simon is a true freshman, and the other 3 are all injured are coming off injuries. We need bodies for practice.

Because we need a bigger back? Can’t rely on Baxter yet

I would assume this changes RB recruiting for HS school this year beside only taking Cooper, along with looking in the portal. Still shocked on the Ricky Stewart deal I don’t see that playing out well for his time at Texas 

what happened with Stewart?  I missed that one?

How the mighty have fallen.  We had an RB room with 5 NFL RBs (Bijan, Roschon, J Brooks, Jayden Blue, Keilan Robinson) not too long ago.

Terry is 4lbs heavier than Clark. And about 3 inches taller

I don't think it's just injuries to the room, but we'll just agree to disagree.

Wisner is banged up, Baxter can't stay healthy, Clark is still coming off his knee injury and hasn't impressed with his limited play, Simon is a Fr and as someone else said Nibllet is a gadget player, not a true RB. That's not a great situation to be in.
