AUSTIN - The Texas Longhorns got some very good news on Friday night when interior defensive lineman T'Vondre Sweat announced his intention to return for the 2023 season. 

Sweat announced his decision to return for his final season on his Twitter account, having some suspenseful fun with the Longhorns faithful.

Hey Longhorn Family,

It has been an amazing journey these last four years here on the beautiful 40 acres.

The things I learned over these years have motivated and molded me into the man I am today in 2022.

Now I would like to thank everyone that has supported me from my family, coaches, professors & UT fans. I have had so much fun here with all of my teammates, but my year here is now up. New beginnings are upon me & again I love my Longhorn family.

So with that being said, I will be declaring for the 2023 Stay at the University of Texas one more year.

Hook'Em
