Minnesota defensive tackle Trill Carter transfers to Texas football program
Defensive tackle Trill Carter, a transfer from Minnesota, figures to bolster Texas' depth on the front seven.AUSTIN — Texas added some serious brawn to its defensive line Monday afternoon with the commitment of Minnesota defensive lineman Trill Carter. The 6-foot-2, 300-pound interior lineman spent his first four college seasons with the Golden Gophers.
Carter started all 13 games last year and was an All-Big Ten honorable mention after recording 19 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, 1½ sacks and 12 total quarterback pressures. As a redshirt sophomore in 2021, Carter started 11 of 12 games and amassed 21 tackles, 5 tackles for loss and 1 sack. The addition of Carter should bolster Texas’ line, which lost All-Big 12 second-team nose tackle Keondre Coburn and impactful defensive tackle Moro Ojomo, the conference’s highest-graded defender in 2022 per Pro Football Focus.
Coach Steve Sarkisian is high on the team’s interior defensive line starters, senior T'Vondre Sweat and junior Byron Murphy II, and depth options like junior Vernon Broughton and Alfred Collins. Carter helps round out that group and provides more stability in the event of injury. The Longhorns led the nation in total quarterback pressures last season but ranked 77th nationally with 2.08 sacks per game. Sarkisian would like to see more of those pressures end with a sack in 2023.
