Another RPM pick has been placed for Texas to land 5-star WR Jaime Ffrench
Jaime Ffrench set to announce his commitment on…..
The Texas Longhorns are one of the most storied programs in college football history. With four national titles and a Texas-sized personality, the Longhorns are a truly blue-blooded program.
Legends like Vince Young, Colt McCoy, Cedric Benson, Jordan Shipley, Derrick Johnson, and others have played at Austin. The school is living through a sort of resurgence at the moment, with the brand being at the highest it has been in decades. Especially now that they’re joining the SEC.
The Texas Longhorns were ranked No. 4 in the first Associated Press Poll which came out Monday morning. This marks the first occasion since 2009 that the Longhorns were ranked in the preseason top five.
This is the first season that the Longhorns will play in the Southeastern Conference. The SEC was well represented in the poll. The Longhorns will face No. 1 Georgia, No. 9 Michigan, No. 16 Oklahoma, and No. 20 Texas A&M during the season. Texas will escape playing No. 5 Alabama, No. 6 Ole Miss, No. 11 Missouri, No. 13 LSU or No. 15 Tennessee in SEC play this season.
Today we are taking a look at the career of another Longhorn legend we didn’t previously mention. Ricky Williams, the all-time lead rusher for Texas. Williams is the all-time (6279 yards), single-season (2124 yards), and single-game (350 yards) rushing yards leader at Texas.
When did Ricky Williams play at Texas?
Williams played at Texas between 1995 and 1998. His last season was the most important of his college career with him earning the Heisman Trophy, the Maxwell Award, and the Walter Camp Award. He was also named the AP’s College Football Player of the Year and the Sporting News Football Player of the Year in 1998.
