The Longhorns once again came ready to play in post-season action as Texas posted a monster upset over then No. 11 ranked Utah in the Valero Alamo Bowl. The bowl game performance was solid at all three phases of the game and marked one of the most complete performances from Texas this season. But as the dust settles from the 8-5 2019 season, all focus is turning to what Tom Herman and Co. will do with the remaining assistant coaches at Texas.
With newly hired defensive coordinator Chris Ash and offensive coordinator Mike Yurcich on campus, the interviews for the vacant coaching positions have officially begun. Horns247 reported over the weekend that running backs coach Stan Drayton and co-offensive coordinator and offensive line coach Herb Hand will be retained by Yurcich, which leaves the offense seeking a tight ends and wide receivers coach. On defense, Ash is interviewing the remaining assistants on staff — defensive line coach Oscar Giles, safeties coach Craig Naivar and cornerbacks coach Jason Washington — this week, but as Horns247 reported Tuesday, none of the defensive assistants have been guaranteed a spot on the coaching staff in the future.
In this week's edition of The Flagship Podcast, Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes open the show with the latest names they are hearing as potential replacements on the Longhorns' staff and bring in Horns247 publisher Bobby Burton for his take on where things stand at Texas and a breakdown of the Longhorns' Alamo Bowl game upset over Utah. We are then joined by former Texas defensive lineman Tim Crowder for his breakdown of what Texas has on defense and where Ash can improve the defensive efforts moving forward.
Chip and Taylor close the show with a preview of what lies ahead for Texas.
Catch all of that and more in Episode 14 of The Flagship Podcast.
