wow...

i just read that on Bevo Beat..I didn’t think Marshall’s injury was that bad. I didn’t mind losing Wilcoxon, but I had SOME hope for Marshall. Wish the best of luck to those guys, hook ’em!

Both hung up their cleats because of medical issues. They will remain on scholarship at Texas, however they will not count against the team’s 85 scholarships.

Nice to see that they can continue to get their education even though they can no longer play.

And in a more selfish note

I believe that them staying and graduating will help the team’s graduation rate.

Sucks

Best of luck to them….

Whoever is the shortest on the O-line methinks is going to be playing the other side soon.

"Mullet Man" Luke Poehlman

seems like he fits the bill. He’s still under 260 lbs.

Get off your knees Greg, you're blowin' the game.
