Texas running back CJ Baxter is out for the entire 2024 season due to a torn PCL and LCL, forcing the Longhorns to adapt once again. Coach Steve Sarkisian expressed strong faith in Tre Wisner, highlighting his versatility and past performance. Wisner may not have had numerous carries in the past, but his skills on special teams and during limited gameplay have caught attention. The team relies on junior Jaydon Blue to lead in ball carries, but Wisner is poised to make an impact alongside him.
