College Career at Texas Tenure: Lettered at UT from 1988 through 1991 . Position: Served as a key contributor on defense, primarily recognized at strong-side linebacker. 1990 Season Highlights: Known for his ability to penetrate the backfield, Powell recorded six tackles for loss, sharing duties with teammates like Shane Dronett, Brian Jones, and Anthony Curl.

Zach Shackelford • Position: Offensive Lineman (Center) • Years at Texas: 2016–2019 • Notable Achievements: Shackelford was a multi-year starter at center, playing in 49 games with 34 starts.

Texas comes in at No. 3, while two opponents make the list as well. 3. Texas Longhorns Key additions: Emmett Mosley V, WR (Stanford); Kaliq Lockett, WR (freshman) Offensive strengths: Heisman frontrunner at quarterback (Arch Manning a +600 bet, according to FanDuel Sportsbook), stellar backfield Arch Manning will drive the offense in 2025, but the combination of Quintrevion Wisnerand C.J. Baxter at running back -- along with former five-star Ryan Wingo emerging as the go-to receiving threat -- will ultimately define Texas' season. Steve Sarkisian's offenses are always productive, and this group will be explosive if a couple of new starters up front can give these playmakers time and space to operate.

I can pull the Big 10 ones for you if you’d like? Not sure if On Oregon Football has posted them yet or not. 🤷‍♂️

We discussed this on Coffee and Football this morning, but I wanted to bring the convo here as well. Phil Steele has released his preseason SEC rankings and the Longhorns are No. 1. However, the chat (along with @Bobby Burton and @Gerry Hamilton) had a lot to say about the rest of the list. What do you think?

Mike Ruether, an offensive lineman for the University of Texas Longhorns from 1980 to 1983, had a notable collegiate career with several accolades. In 1983, he was named a first-team All-American by multiple selectors, recognizing him as one of the top players in the nation. He also earned first-team All-Southwest Conference (SWC) honors that same year, highlighting his dominance in the conference. Ruether was a key contributor to the 1983 Longhorns team, which won the SWC championship and finished the regular season undefeated, earning a No. 2 national ranking before competing in the Cotton Bowl.

We are now at 57 days away from the Longhorns opening their season by squaring off against Ohio State. Who’s your favorite No. 57 to play for Texas? An option today includes…. Mike Ruether
