The Texas Longhorns practiced on Monday following the team's first scrimmage on Saturday and reporters were on hand to provide some perspective on the team's current state.
Here are some immediate thoughts from media members:
Antwaun Davis and Dorian Leonard had some great battles on the outside. Leonard needs to improve hands #Longhorns

Tyrone Swoopes was on fire!! Look like he has more zip on his throws and he was hitting bombs to the WRs! WRs were making great catches!

First-team OL, L-R: Hutchins, Hodges, Doyle, Perkins, Williams. At corner, A Davis and Echols getting lots of work.

For what it's worth, Daje Johnson took barely any 1st team reps. Warrick, Leonard, M Johnson and Joe got nod over him. #Longhorns

Media saw another spring practice today. Swoopes still getting all first-team reps.

Practice observation: True freshman Connor Williams worked with the first team at offensive right tackle. ... Heard outplayed Swoopes.

Heard made some great throws today, definitely looked better than in the opening practice #Longhorns @texansports

Also Charlie Strong yelled at Hard-Hittin' Jason Hall a couple of times for hittin' too hard.

Texas practice over. Daje Johnson, Warrick with great catches. Echols with an INT. Hall hits everybody. QBs Swoopes, Heard still close.

My biggest standout at today's practice is Jacorey Warrick. Made some great catches and took a number of screens and flat routes for TD's

Saw some good & bad for Swoopes today. Some miscommunications with WR's, some bad throws but a number of dimes as well #HookEm @texansports

Injured guys in the pit at today’s practice: Chris Nelson, Derick Roberson, Tank Jackson, Garrett Gray and Duke Catalon.

Blake Whiteley took most of the first team TE reps. Showed good hands. #Longhorns @texansports
