UT sports stars and coaches featured in new ads for Longhorn Network

Longhorn Network, ESPN's 24-hour network devoted to The University of Texas, is launching a series of commercials starring some of the school's coaches and most famed Longhorn Legends, including:

  • Former Texas Baseball and MLB All-star Roger Clemens;
  • Former Texas Football and current Washington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy;
  • Former Texas Football and NFL wide receiver Jordan Shipley;

The spots, filmed in the scenic Hill Country outside of Austin, build upon the network's "All The Live Long Day" campaign, which launched last year. Each commercial captures the spirit of Longhorn Network and showcases its metaphorical home and transmitter tower -- dubbed The 41st Acre -- as the beacon for Texas sports, bringing together passionate Longhorn fans, UT spirit groups and legends.
