Three Days Until Kickoff: Who Was The Best No. 3?

[Blake Munroe]

Three days until kickoff and No. 3 has been worn by some absolute dudes at Texas.

Nathan Vasher finished with 155 tackles, 64 pass breakups and a school-record 17 interceptions. He was also an elite punt returner and earned All-America honors twice.

Quinn Ewers threw for 9,128 yards and 68 touchdowns. He went 27-9 as a starter, won the 2023 Big 12 championship and led Texas to back-to-back College Football Playoff semifinals.

Mossy Cade recorded 11 interceptions and earned first-team All-America honors in 1983. He helped Texas win the Southwest Conference and was later selected sixth overall in the NFL Draft.

Hodges Mitchell rushed for 2,664 yards and had back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons. He also earned first-team All-Big 12 honors twice.

Jordan Hicks finished with 248 tackles and 22.5 tackles for loss. He recorded 147 tackles in 2014 and earned second-team All-America honors.

Rasheem Biles and Emmett Mosley V will wear No. 3 for Texas this season.

As a 16 year old, my coach took me to a Texas game for the first time.  I had become a fan when Earl played, but this my first in person visit.  It was 1983 and Texas had the most dominating defense I had ever seen.  Mossy Cade was an absolute stud on a defense full of them.  He gets my vote.  That dude was unreal.
