I think 2021 was going to be a rough year due to the 2019 class falling apart, new Qb, lack of talent & depth on the OL, holes at linebacker, and a deep but not elite WR room.
Worthy, who was a late addition by Sark had 981 yards and 12 TDs. The second leading WR was J-Witt with 377 yards and 3 TD. Bijan was the third leading receiver. Without Worthy, its likely Texas would have had an even worse season under Herman.
Herman would have been fired after a losing season with the program trending negatively and Texas would have been looking for a coach durring arguably the craziest coaching carousel ever. No shot for Riley, Venables, Kelly and Sark. Leaving Cristobal, Napier, or who knows.
Glad we have Sark
