AUSTIN, Texas — Taylor Jones had 21 points and five blocks in her debut for Texas after transferring from Oregon State, and the No. 3 Longhorns defeated Louisiana 68-45. The Longhorns opened their season without their best player, point guard Rori Harmon, who wore a protective boot on her right foot. Texas released a statement before the game that gave no details on Harmon's injury and said her status is day to day. Harmon, a sophomore, led Texas to the Big 12 tournament championship last season.
