Bishop Jr. Compared to DeVonta Smith | Texas Longhorns Football News
Description
Texas Longhorns football is firing on all cylinders heading into 2026, with head coach Steve Sarkisian hyping what he calls the most talented roster yet — and spotlighting freshman wideout Jermaine Bishop Jr. Sarkisian, who coached Heisman winner DeVonta Smith at Alabama, is comparing Bishop Jr. to Smith — even suggesting he’ll play both offense and defense like Smith once did. Smith’s legendary 2020 season included 117 catches, 1,856 yards, and 23 touchdowns — making him the first non-quarterback to win the Heisman since Derrick Henry. Expectations are sky-high, and Bishop Jr. could be the next big thing.
