Austin-when a smile on Michael Taf at a press conference this week, he asked the happiness of the journalists, “Is it every American?” Taaffe knew that the answer was no.
He was referring to his friend and well -known colleague, Arch Manning, who is the most recent about the player in university football.
“I just wanted to make it clear,” said the great defensive back, Taaffe around one of them is A Co-MARICAN.
It is Taaffe. Likewise, two of his teammates in Anthony Hill and Colin Simons.
Taaffe, who wore the 16th position of the Defense in Texas, was an integral part of bringing the other 16 in Longhorns in Manning. The two often talk about the extent of the other as a person and a player.
And if Texas wants to achieve success that they believe is possible this season, they will need both Taaffe and Manning.
TAAFFE won the honor of All-Mamerica last season, while Manning started only two games in his university career. From Taaffe is a person who holds honors in this fall, although he talks about a little less.
“It is great to get some respect,” said Taaffe about the three Longhorns landing in the Preseason menu. “People understand what our work represents from last year now. It is clear that it does not matter until the tape is run.
Another simple drilling with Zero Ill Will on his bracket friend. Taaffe and Longhorns open the season on Saturday, August 30 in Ohio.
