The Longhorns came into 2016 with some big aspirations. And while their season didn't go as planned — Texas stumbled to a 5–7 finish — several Longhorns still exceeded expectations.
Here are the top-5 Texas breakout players from this season.
1 . Junior running back D'Onta Foreman
No Longhorn player enjoyed a breakout season quite like Foreman. A former two-star prospect, the Texas City native rushed for 2,028 yards — first in the nation and second in school history. Foreman was expected to take on a big role after Johnathan Gray graduated last spring.
