The Longhorns will look to put the last four-game stretch of losses in the past this weekend when Texas hosts Kansas Saturday in Darrell K Royal - Texas Memorial Stadium. But Steve Sarkisian's squad will be without at least one key starter on offense, while other player's status remain up in the air.
The Flagship Podcast gets the week started off with a loaded show as Horns247 columnist Chip Brown and managing editor Taylor Estes deliver the latest news coming out of Texas starting with the breaking news story of the day after junior wide receiver Joshua Moore officially entered the transfer portal. The Flagship weighs in on how big of a loss this will be for the Longhorns as they continue to hunt for bowl eligibility and need to win at least two of the final three games of the year to reach the bowl season. 
The Flagship also delivers the latest injury status on some banged up players who left last week's game at Iowa State, including RB Bijan Robinson, LB DeMarvion Overshown, RB Roschon Johnson and DL Alfred Collins, and where some of the positives are for the football program as they look to rebound after losing four-straight games over the last month.
After the loaded football segment to open the show, The Flagship shifts focus to the preseason No. 5 ranked Texas basketball program with the Longhorns first game of the season going down Tuesday against Houston Baptist. Chip and Taylor talk about some of the team-building tactics head coach Chris Beard brought to the Longhorns during the offseason and what to make of the excitement and hype surrounding the program in Year 1 of the Beard era.
After a quick break, The Flagship returns with our 'Love it or leave it' segment, with this week's topics focused on how detrimental the loss of Moore is to this year's football team, if TE Cade Brewer was right in saying Texas needs to get back to having fun and what to make of this Kansas team that nearly upset Oklahoma last month.
Catch all of that and much more on this loaded episode of The Flagship Podcast.
