A few of those will make up Texas' wide receiver room after the departures of Matthew Golden, Isaiah Bond, and Silas Bolden to the 2025 NFL Draft this offseason. Two true freshmen and one transfer could now be in line to fill those roles. Advertisement Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian joined the Always College Football podcast this week with Greg McElroy and he sounds extremely confident in the unit heading into the 2025 season. "I feel great about that room. I don't feel good about it. I feel great about that room. Probably better than most people do on the outside," Sarkisian said. Sarkisian specifically noted his confidence in wide receivers Ryan Wingo, DeAndre Moore, and transfer Emmett Mosley. Outside of those crucial players, the Longhorns have solid depth with true freshmen Kaliq Lockett and Jaime Ffrench, and redshirt freshmen Parker Livingstone and Aaron Butler. Advertisement "Ryan Wingo's a budding star," Sarkisian said. "He's big, he's physical, he's fast." Wingo is in line to take over as the No. 1 wide receiver for first-year starting quarterback Arch Manning. However, Sarkisian is known to spread the ball around and several of these players will have to make clutch plays in big-time moments. Texas will kick off the season with a monster matchup against Ohio State in Columbus on Aug. 30.
