About Dino »

I am an avid Texas Longhorn sports fan. I've been following the Longhorns athletics program for some time now and I've enjoyed every minute. I'm currently Community Leader as well as a Featured Columnist for Texas Longhorns Football here on Bleacher Report. When I graduate high school I hope to attend a good university and pursue a career in sports journalism.

Hey dino!
I'm jd and have been looking around at the best defenders in the big 12. who do you like most from texas?

I see a lot of guys here, but I especially like muckelroy, kindle, thomas, houston, both achos, gideon and chykie. Any of those guys or others stand out particularly above and beyond as uber-reliable or team leaders to you?

I'd appreciate your opinion!!
