I seriously doubt this. He is one of our best DBs and we play in the Big 12 and injuries in his position are a fairly common occurrence.

plus with targeting you can't have enought good DB's

GODDAMN

 

hook em horns!!!

Great to have Brandon back. This will work great with the 3 safety look.

That's awesome, but I hope that doesn't put Overshown in a bad spot. 

Quoted from a recruiting thread.

If he transfers he sits out a year and can start in 20

If he stays, he sees the field in packages, substitutions, injuries, and possibly starts depending on what Orlando cooks up in 19, and he starts in 20

If Overshown leaves, it is because he was leaving anyway or because he is an idoit. I am hoping the answer to both of those is NO.

Hell yeah great news

Gonna be a young group back there in the secondary.  Brandon is not just a good player.  He'll be the veteran leader and adult supervision for those talented kids.  I'm REALLY glad he's coming back.

With Texas losing so many starters on Defense for 2019...... having Brandon Jones experience returning is huge. 

Brandon does a great job making sure that everyone is lined up correctly...... can't overstate how much having his experience and talent returning really helps the 2019 Horns Defense.....

Overshown not transferring (i haven't read anything to lead me to believe he is) is how we return to the top 5.  We have to have upperclassmen.  DO sits behind Jones next year then pushes for starter reps as a junior and is a freaking stud as a Sr.  Having depth, quality depth along with upperclassmen and stud young blue chippers providing depth is something we have been missing since '09.

But did anyone on here... or even jones himself for that matter... actually think he was leaving!?

He comes from a tough family situation.

He was putting up good tape at the beginning of the year.

He was "pleased" with the feedback he received from the draft advisory committee.

It wasn't a likely scenario, but it was definitely on the table.

So he's a coach on the field? Didn't we have one of those a few years ago--uh, uh, what was that kid's name? Faint, wispy images come and go . . . IHOP, . . . Jones Stadium . . . 

Lest I send a mixed message: I'm damn glad Jones is coming back. The other couch-on-the-field, not so much.

Whenever I think to myself "where the hell did that guy come from" I know it was Jones flying in at warp speed to bring the pain.

Who needs linebackers? Fuck it. Time to invent the 4-7. 

I think the Chargers have us beat. Check out their game vs Ravens last week

Awesome news. 

 

 They better vote him captain or he’ll be butt hurt all year, possibly creating a cancer.

Yeah, I can’t imagine a transfer. You hear guys like Huff tell stories about showing up with Babers, Griffin, Ross, Geiger, et al on the roster and reloading every year wondering if there’s a spot for him. Work hard and be a part of DBU. Seems to pay off.
This is a good day.

Real talk tho. How do we get Overshown on the field now?

He’s got the Jason Hall starter kit on our Dime package.

I guess this means the F250 is still running.

[HoustonHorn 1061]

Good decision. Look forward to seeing BJ have a great year and improve his draft stock. Talent is there.

Speaking of Overshown, he posted this an hour ago, presumably a response to Brandon returning. Looks like he's not going anywhere.

Awww yeah  Aligned!!  Gonna be a lot of teeth rattlers in that secondary. 

[honolulu horn 6157]

Yes! Next season is too far away...

Now Herman find someone else for Punt Safe. Two of his injuries this year was on punt return. He was too valuable on defense to be on Punt Return.

Be nice if Jake Smith could take over punt returning duties

Too much Dropsie's for Burt to receive punts.

Maybe on punt safe ask Brandon to fair catch the ball??
