We're getting closer. Football season officially begins in nine days.

Of course, much like Christmas, spring break, and the last day of school, the days seem to also grow longer as kickoff creeps nearer. We can't do much about that, but we can ensure that the next few minutes are awesome, thanks to this Texas hype video.

What to expect from the Longhorns in 2017 is anyone's guess. The arrival of head coach Tom Herman has resulted in a renewed sense of hope and optimism in Austin, but Texas has just as many question marks as it has elite-level prospects -- which is to say the program has a lot of both.

Offensively, the loss of running back D'Onta Foreman hurts, but the return of a more mature version of Shane Buechele at quarterback figures to be equally beneficial. In addition to Buechele, the Longhorns welcome back experience at virtually every key position, including running back (Chris Warren III), wide receiver (Collin Johnson, Devin Duvernay, D'Onta's brother Armanti Foreman, and former quarterback Jerrod Heard) and offensive line, where All-American Connor Williams headlines a unit that returns four of five starters.

The defense got lit up on multiple occasions in 2016, but Texas returns experience and pedigree at virtually every position on that side of the ball, as well. In fact, Herman will benefit from inheriting a two-deep depth chart that returns 36 of 44 players from a season ago. The hype is always there for this program, but it sure seems like the Horns have a very real chance of realizing the potential for considerable success in 2017.
