UT takes steps to bring freshmen into fold

AUSTIN, Texas -- As per NCAA rules, the Texas football coaches are not allowed on the field or in the film room with the incoming freshmen. But that hasn’t stopped Mack Brown & Co. from making sure there is still some teaching going on. From sitting in the backyard of Brown’s house and listening to Fozzy Whittaker talk about what it means to be a part of the program to being enrolled in three hours of classes to get an understanding of expectations, the freshmen are still learning even without the coaches.
