Greatest Longorn Football Player Ever?

[Jonathan Fest]

Vince Young, Cedric Benson, Roy Williams, Ricky Williams, Earl Campbell, Tommy Nobis???

Is there any debate about the best coach, is Mack coming up on Darrell, hmmm, not yet.

This should be an intersting discussion....

Earl Campbell - The Pearl

[Jonathan Fest]

I tend to agree Barry. Although, I think Ricky's career has become a little tainted with his trouble in the NFL. Who can forget the Houston "Earl"ers! Boy Earl sure shows the results of a long career on his body. I doubt Ricky will pick up the same injuries on a yoga mat..
Thanks for your input, the forum is only a week and a half old, so expect content(discussions, event, chats..) to grow. Good to have you here!

Could not do too bad with Ricky or Vince either...though I'll warrant some real old timers would argue for Tommy Nobis or Ernie Koy...

Earl Campbell - Watching him play as a :Longhorn was one of the great privileges I have had

Best player: Vince Young. Hands down. As great as Earl and Ricky and Nobis and Layne and many others were, none strapped a team and a program on his back the way VY did.

No doubt that Vince put Texas back on the map!!

Vince, Earl and Tommy, yes. But no way Cedric Benson or Roy Williams belong in this list or even in top 25 best Longhorn players. And Ricky, well, he might be one of the best to play at Texas but his post-college antics make it hard to include him. And yes, Mack is making a pretty good run at DKR but doesn't he need at least a couple more National Championships to pass DKR?! GO HORNS!
