Countdown to 2024 Texas Longhorn Football - SEC now with more cowbell!


Recommended Posts

Had Calvin Anderson had Flood to coach him, who knows hiow much bigger noise he would have made. He was already damn good, but Flood's teaching would have made him a draft pick  

He's doing well for himself so far with the Patriots making $7m over 2 seasons, so about $3m per year with $4m guaranteed and $7m signed on his contract last season. Very proud tb have him, proud to represent  our university. He's earned e very penny.

Well this is certainly interesting. I met Mike outside the Rose Bowl before the USC game. We sat in the parking lot and drank beer talking about the Horns. It was a great time. What I didn’t realize at the time and until just now, is that we went to the same high school in Austin. He was obviously older than me, but what a weird coincidence.

Offensive guard Justin Blalock was a member of one of the greatest teams in Texas Longhorns history. The 2005-06 BCS National Championship team, where he was tasked with blocking for Vince Young. The North Texas native started all four years for the Longhorns. During his collegiate career, Blalock set the school record for consecutive starts with 51. The team had a 44-7 record when he played.

He helped pave the way to allow VY to set the schools all-time leading rushing record for a quarterback. Not to mention the offense in that 2005 season broke a single-season record for most points scored. The old record of 624 points was set by the 1983 Nebraska Cornhuskers, the Longhorns set the new standard with 652 points.

Blalock received the inaugural Big 12 Offensive Lineman of the Year award in 2006. He was also a four-time All-Big 12 First-Team member, and a two-time All-American for the Longhorns. Blalock was selected 39th overall in the second round by the Atlanta Falcons during the 2007 NFL Draft. He played for the team until 2014. He was released in February following the season and retired from football a few months later.

Accomplishments:

  • 2001 USA Today High School All-American
  • Two-time All-American
  • Four-time first-team All-Big 12
  • 2006 Big 12 Offensive Lineman of the Year
  • Finalist for the Lombardi Award and Outland Trophy
  • Second-round selection in the 2007 NFL Draft
  • Eight-year NFL veteran
  • Plano ISD Hall of Fame Inductee
  • 2018 Texas Hall of Honor Inductee
