Austin, Texas – A number of students who were caught on camera throwing water bottles onto the field during the Georgia game have been invited to try out for the scout team as preferred walk-ons.
“We thought we were all set at the quarterback position with Quinn and Arch, but after reviewing the tape, it’s clear we have some students in the stands who belong on the field,” said Texas head football coach Steve Sarkisian.
“I got pelted pretty good with a Dasani bottle,” Sarkisian continued. “But it was a high-level throw, good spiral, good velocity. We’re not in a position to let that kind of arm talent go to waste.”
In a surprising turn of events, the same footage that was used to identify bottle-throwers to revoke their season tickets was also submitted to the football program for talent evaluation purposes.
“My heart goes out to those students who lost their privilege to attend football games,” Sark added, “but for those who make the team, the view is better from the sidelines, anyway.”
