Buried in the Connor Wood transfer press release was this:
***LONGHORN INJURY UPDATE: Sophomore LB Demarco Cobbs sustained a right forearm fracture during practice on Tuesday and will be out indefinitely, Head Athletic Trainer for Football Kenny Boyd announced.
Cobbs has had a meteoric preseason run and was slated to see a ton of action. That particular type of injury is a tough one to recover from, especially the position he plays. Maybe we'll see him in a protective cast before long but long odds are against.
What was looking like a short-breath of exhale escaping preseason workouts without injury, the fix was in and Longhorns continue their decades long string of unfortunate preseason losses due to injury.
