Bobby Burton Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Sadly, I am told this is true. His magazine cover is one that hangs on my wall during every show. My dad’s original favorite Longhorn. 5 1 Quote
Moderators Jeff Howe Posted 1 hour ago Moderators Posted 1 hour ago I wasn't alive when Chris Gilbert was on the Forty, but those who played with him, coached him and watched him speak of his football career with a great deal of reverence. 4 Quote
Midhorn75 Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago One of my earlier Longhorn Heroes. I was able to see him play multiple games during his career. Got to meet him at an East Texas Longhorn event at the Petroleum Club in Tyler. 🤘🏻 Quote
