Malik Jefferson is having his best year as a Longhorn and it hasn’t gone unnoticed, as he has been named a Butkus Award Semifinalist.



Jefferson has been credited with 76 tackles, 8.5 TFLs, and 4 sacks so far this year.

Yep, finally getting some coaching.

First few games pretty much sucked like  the last couple of years. But Jefferson has come around the last few games.

He isn't NFL material based on performance to date but may be after next year with coaching and well coached players around him.

Is there a LB'er in the land playing better than Malik Jefferson right now?

The NFL will go nuts over his speed alone.
