Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers had his deep ball dialed in today. In the media’s viewing of practice, he threw and completed six downfield passes, with the most impressive being over the shoulder drops into the breadbaskets of AD Mitchell and Casey Cain.

Anthony Hill Jr. is one of, if not the best all around football players I’ve ever seen live.
His athleticism is off the charts. This play I called from his junior season goes to show just how much he can do. Jeff Choate is gonna have a lot of fun with this guy.

Something to think about regarding Anthony Hill's decommitment:
Two of his former high school teammates at Denton Ryan, Austin Jordan and JT Sanders, play for the Longhorns.
I'm sure they'll help out the Texas staff's recruiting efforts for a reunion in Austin.
