In a testament to the University of Texas’s commitment to excellence in both athletics and academics, a staggering 79 Longhorns football players have been named to the Southeastern Conference (SEC) Academic Honor Roll.

This impressive achievement is a reflection of the hard work and dedication of the Texas football players, who have successfully balanced the demands of competing at the highest level in the SEC with the rigors of academic coursework.

To be eligible for the SEC Academic Honor Roll, student-athletes must have a grade-point average of 3.0 or higher for the preceding academic year, or have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher. The 79 Longhorns who earned this distinction have demonstrated a remarkable ability to excel in both the classroom and on the football field.

“We are incredibly proud of our student-athletes for their outstanding academic achievement,” said University of Texas Athletic Director Chris Del Conte. “This recognition is a testament to their hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence in all aspects of their lives.”

The Longhorns’ academic success is a credit to the university’s strong support system for student-athletes, which includes academic advisors, tutors, and mentors. The university’s commitment to academic excellence is evident in the fact that Texas has consistently ranked among the top schools in the nation in terms of student-athlete graduation rates.

The 79 Longhorns who earned SEC Academic Honor Roll recognition are a diverse group, representing a range of academic majors and hometowns from across the state of Texas and beyond. They are a shining example of the university’s mission to develop well-rounded student-athletes who excel in all aspects of their lives.

As the Longhorns continue to compete at the highest level in the SEC, they do so with the knowledge that they are part of a proud tradition of academic excellence. The 79 players who earned SEC Academic Honor Roll recognition are a testament to the power of hard work, dedication, and a commitment to excellence in all aspects of life.
