We’re 66 days away from Texas football.

Today’s group is a strong one up front with Harley Sewell, Doug Dawson, Herb Gray and Calvin Anderson.

Sewell is the headliner as a two-time consensus All-American, Cotton Bowl MVP, College Football Hall of Famer and four-time NFL Pro Bowler. Dawson was a consensus All-American and captain of the 1983 team, while Gray was a consensus All-American, All-SWC tackle and SWC Defensive MVP. Anderson gave Texas a big one-year boost in 2018, starting every game at left tackle for a Sugar Bowl-winning team.

Wasn't Calvin the transfer in from Rice?  I remember thinking, oh boy, we're taking guys from Rice?!  And then I happily ate my words.  What a great young man and football player!

I remember watching Dawson when I was young, tough dude.  That said, based on accomplishments, Harley really does set the standard for #66 IMHO.  HookEm!

I thought the same thing about Anderson when we picked him up.

Had it not been for him our OL would have been pretty bad.

Yall aren’t alone. I know my expectations for him were low coming in. 

Pretty sure he surprised everyone with how well he did. 

When my son redshirted at Rice in season 2017, he had to scrimmage against Anderson. My son was middle LB and they had him at DE in scrimmage for lack of bodies.

My son is extremely positive person but he didn't like the way Anderson would hit his throat several times in practice.  

Who's our current 66? Not gonna lie I can't remember any player wearing 66

No one on this years team wears 67, 66, 65 or 64.

That's crazy.  We need some dawgs with bad intentions to don the mid-60s!

Go ahead and throw 60 in there while you're at it.  

Doug Dawson for the win.

Not someone that would ever be mentioned on something like this because he was primarily a backup, but just want to give him a shoutout. Brett Valdez wore #66 on the 2005 national championship team. I grew up with him and thought it was pretty cool that he worked his way onto that team and can forever call himself a champion.
