The 2022 second-team All-Big 12 Selection and Freshman All-American offensive enters sophomore season as preseason first-team All-Big 12 pick.

Like a gladiator in a Colosseum twice as large, Kelvin Banks Jr. trots out to the roar of 100,000 fans. Each onlooker is decked out in burnt orange, their pinkies and index fingers extended with passion and pride — many have been Longhorn fans since birth.
