2025 Texas Longhorns football preview: The running back room looks loaded
SUMMARY: The Texas Longhorns running back room is poised for a stronger 2025 season after injuries sidelined key players like CJ Baxter and Christian Clark in 2024. Baxter, returning healthy, is expected to lead alongside Quintrevion Wisner, who rushed for over 1,000 yards last year, and bruising freshman Jerrick Gibson. Depth is bolstered by promising recruits James Simon and Rickey Stewart Jr. The offense may gain new versatility with quarterback Arch Manning’s mobility. However, Texas must improve ball security after fumbling 26 times in 2024. Additionally, new running backs coach Chad Scott replaces Tashard Choice, bringing experience from West Virginia.
