Texas has brought in Mark Orphey as a defensive backs coach and Errin Joe as a scouting department hire. Orphey will help with the defensive secondary, while Joe strengthens Texas’ presence in Georgia’s recruiting scene.
The additions emphasize youth, energy, and recruiting prowess, with Orphey contributing NFL-caliber DB development and Joe bringing deep scouting experience from Georgia Tech.
