📡 Longhorns great and former NFL player Cedric Benson was killed in a motorcycle crash in West Austin on Saturday night

He was a lot of fun to watch at Texas. Good running back, bordering on great.

I can't name another Power 5 RB that rushed for 1000 yards every year, not to mention each year had more yards than the previous.

He was a stud at Texas...Heisman worthy in my opinion.

Just as a comparison here.

Barry Sanders only had one in college. LaDainian had two. Melvin Gordon had two. Kevin Smith down at UCF almost had three (missed it by 60 or so yards his second season.)

Rarified air with Benson.

He was a stud as well. Hate that he's dealing with the issues he's dealing with now.
