What everyone’s talking about:
Roadrunner fans will miss quarterback Frank Harris on the field this season. No worries, you’ll still see some familiar — and new — faces on the Roadrunners. Coach Jeff Traylor is starting his sixth season with the team, and the program is welcoming transfers like offensive lineman Jaylen Garth (Houston), cornerback Denver Harris (LSU), and linebacker Ian Jackson (Alabama). See the full list of new players.
Fun fact: UTSA was recently ranked third in the American Athletic Conference.
