With three weeks remaining before season opener, starting job is still open
Hudson Card was a heralded recruit out of Austin Lake Travis and impressed in his first game as a starter in 2021, but he lost his starting job shortly thereafter as the Longhorns finished 5-7.AUSTIN — So much has changed at Texas since Aug. 28, 2021, the day coach Steve Sarkisian declared then-redshirt freshman Hudson Card the winner of the Longhorns’ quarterback contest.
Then, one-time Texas commit Quinn Ewers decided to transfer into the Longhorns’ program in December after a few months at Ohio State. Sarkisian also signed four-star recruit Maalik Murphy that month, fresh off a state title with Junipero Serra . And Thompson orchestrated his own exit via transfer portal to Nebraska a few weeks later.
“I'm really enjoying it,” Sarkisian said of the competition. “I'm enjoying it because both these guys are working their tails off. Both of them are really coachable and trying to do what we're asking them to do. Both of them are making some really nice plays. Whether it's quick game, whether it's audibles, whether it's intermediate throws, whether it's down-the-field throws. And I think they're both playing with a lot of confidence. So that part's fun.
Throughout this offseason, Card has worked to address the shortcomings that cost him the starting job. Texas also brought in additional playmakers at receiver and added some potential game-changers to solidify the offensive line.
