No. 24 has been worn by some outstanding Longhorns over the years.

Tommy Ford was an All-American and co-captain of Texas’ 1963 national championship team.

Raymond Clayborn earned All-America honors, was a two-time All-SWC selection and Texas’ team MVP in 1976.

A.J. “Jam” Jones piled up 2,874 rushing yards and 27 touchdowns while leading Texas in rushing four straight seasons.

And more recently, Jonathon Brooks rushed for 1,139 yards and 10 touchdowns in his breakout 2023 season.

Also worth mentioning: 1969 national champion and co-captain Ted Koy, along with Joe Bergeron, who scored 25 career rushing touchdowns.

And the current No. 24 for Texas: defensive back Warren Roberson.

Who was the best to wear it?

Great graphic producer Matthew 

Great work Blake!🤘🤘🤘

This is awesome - too many to choose....

Jam, Ham Lam!

Clayborn or Ham.

Don’t forget the infamous Ron “McKelvey” Weaver.

It appears that legend Tom Landry wore 24 one year, but don't know if that was before or after his service in WWII.

He looks old.

Has to be Raymond Clayborn. 15 year NFL star, All American track and field, all-conference, and a true Longhorn Legend!

I’m partial to the players from my first impressionable years as a kid when it comes to this number: Clayborn, Koy, and Jam! But, this number is well represented by some good players!

Muted 🤣🤣🤣. Gotta go with Jam then Brooks and Clayborn. If he doesn’t get hurt I think Brooks takes it.

This guy was a baller honestly if he was out there in his late 20s keeping up with those young bucks. I remember when this all went down thinking as a 13 year old that this dude had to be a badass to play at Texas being that “old” haha

My dad says Ted Koy!

And I’ll say, I never saw him play but there’s never been a finer gentlemen.

Gotta be Clayborn. An all-time great who I bet a majority of our fanbase now has probably never heard of.
