A former standout tight end at Texas who went on to a highly successful professional football career, Pete Lammons passed away on Thursday. He was 77. Lammons is among an elite group of Longhorns who won both a National Championship at UT and a Super Bowl in the NFL.
Texas' leading receiver in 1964 (13 receptions, 204 yards) and '65 (27-405), Lammons earned consensus first-team All-Southwest Conference honors in 1965. He caught seven passes for 97 yards in 1963 as he helped UT to an 11-0 record and the Longhorns' first National Championship. In 1964, Texas went 10-1 and finished ranked No.
