Asked if QB Colt McCoy is his backup quarterback now, 49ers HC Jim Harbaugh said, “Yeah, yes he is. He played very well."

DT Ashton Dorsey is not listed on the depth chart because he has a strained calf and is questionable for Saturday.
Interesting to see that Daje Johnson is listed as a receiver. But damn I love the talent there is at cornerback and nickel, it's ridiculous!
FYI that this Saturday each Texas player will have their number on their helmet (like Alabama does) above the Longhorn logo to honor the '63 national championship team. Like the picture below:

I don't know if y'all remember the guy, but QB Jake Waters has been named the starter for K-State. Harsin was looking at him for a few weeks as a JUCO transfer, but Texas got in the game too late:

2013 TEAM MOTTO: For the man on my right and left.
To honor Nate Boyer and his service overseas.
ESPN's pre-season bowl projections. Texas is too high for me, but what the ...

I think it's just about right, anything less is a disappointment and I feel pretty safe in saying Mack won't be back.
I like Texas vs Georgia, I don't think we can beat Stanford.
Thought this was interesting .

Recruiting is a huge focus in the book, ranging from the rise of 7-on-7 teams, the task of NCAA investigators trying to control things and even a chapter on the pursuit of Sealy (Texas) High School star Ricky Seals-Jones.
Seals-Jones, once a Texas commit who wound up signing with Texas A&M last February, and his family open themselves up to the entire process. The juiciest part is an alleged offer to the Jones family from a "top-20 program" – not A&M – for the following: $300,000 in cash, use of a luxury suite during football season, eight season tickets and $1,000 per month for Ricky and $500 for the family.
"Oh, it was higher than that," Chester Jones, Ricky's dad said. "It was a lot higher than that." Chester Jones said the offers grew as high as $600,000 for his son's signature on a national letter of intent – one SEC school and one ACC school said they'd double any offer – but he declined them all out of principle and the fear of inevitably getting caught.
top 20 program - not a&m
lol
so how much did a&m pay?
What he was saying is A&M did not offer money.
Lol what. Did you even read the article?
Ricky's dad would obviously not come out and talk about how much money he was offered if he did indeed take cash lol. He refused multiple offers for money and his son ended up at A&M.
DJ Monroe coaching high school backs at St Joseph High School in Victoria, TX. Interesting that he chose a private school to coach at.

D.J. Monroe Now Coaching the Flyers
A year ago, D.J. Monroe was getting ready for his senior year as a Texas Longhorns running back. This year, Monroe is helping St. Joe running backs get ready in his first coaching job with the Flyers.
The pundits hinted at this over a year ago. Of course it never made sense when RSJ said Texas still was clear leader in his recruitment even after de-committing, and then said the Horns told him they were no longer interested.
OK State has lost their starting left tackle for the season due to an ACL tear.

OrangeBloods reporting DT Ashton Dorsey has "elected to transfer."
Sounds like he was kicked off of the team based on the timing.
I thought Dorsey leaving was due to his place on the depth chart, any word as to what he might have done to get kicked off the team?
It's odd mainly because he's a senior, but to make this decision four days before the first game is even more unusual. Plus, Dorsey would've had a nice idea of where he was at on the depth chart after spring training. It just doesn't seem like this was solely Dorsey's decision. I'll let you know if I see any rumors on the situation.
that's some pretty sad .
DJ Monroe was a very talented athlete, but I'm pretty sure the reason he is in the place he is now has more to do with lack of desire to continuing his career. You don't run a 4.27 40 and not have a job somewhere. I'm pretty sure he could have been in the CFL if nothing else.
