Summary

Texas football held its first scrimmage of fall camp, which in the words of head coach Tom Herman was sloppy, though that is expected at this point in preseason training camp. Aside from the sloppy performance, the Longhorns did have a few highlights emerge from scrimmage No. 1, however, also were hit with some negative news on the injury front. On the Wednesday episode of The Flagship Podcast, Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes open the show with the hottest topics surrounding Texas football coming out of the Longhorns' first fall camp scrimmage and break down points of emphasis for Texas as the Longhorns continue through preseason training camp. Chip and Taylor discuss one of the negative headlines to come from the scrimmage after Horns247 reported true freshman wide receiver Troy Omeire suffered a torn ACL and would miss the entire 2020 football season. Texas has since confirmed Horns247's season-ending injury report on Omeire, which adds another question mark at the receiver position as Omeire has been mentioned multiple times as a player who was standing out substantially early in fall camp. The Flagship shifts focus to Texas QB Sam Ehlinger who held a Zoom call with reporters Tuesday afternoon. The hosts give their key takeaways from the quarterback's media interview, including Ehlinger's very direct comments on his stance regarding protecting the eligibility of student-athletes this fall in the event of a mid-season disruption, and who he believes is standing out among the newcomers from the 2020 signing class. After a very short break, Chip and Taylor return with their take on the Longhorns' updated schedule and how the new Big 12 slate impacts Texas as it hopes to turn the corner and make a Big 12 title run in 2020, before getting into this week's Love it or Leave it segment, which addresses the buzz circulating around true freshman QB Hudson Card, how Oklahoma did not get any favors from the Big 12 scheduling folks, what Omeire's injury means for the receiving core and more. Catch all of that and more on the mid-week episode of The Flagship Podcast. The Flagship Podcast — featuring co-hosts Chip Brown and Taylor Estes with Horns247 publisher Bobby Burton as a frequent contributor — hits the airwaves each Monday and Wednesday, and centers around all the latest happenings surrounding the University of Texas and college athletics, with big-name guests joining the show on a weekly basis.
