Texas Longhorns coach Sean Miller has reshaped his frontcourt this offseason, landing power forward David Punch to play alongside center Matas Vokietaitis, according to Yahoo Sports. The addition gives Texas a deep and physical interior rotation heading into the new season.
Analysts cited by Yahoo Sports suggest the new pairing could elevate Vokietaitis into consideration as one of the top centers in the country, as Punch's presence should ease pressure on him and allow him to focus on his strengths closer to the basket.
The frontcourt buildup reflects Miller's broader offseason strategy of adding size and depth to compete at a high level, with Texas fans now watching to see how the new-look lineup performs once the season tips off.
