    Simply awful! One of the unheralded on that Jets team (and one of 4 Longhorns, btw!) Wish I could've seen him play both in the NFL and on the 40 acres. RIP, good sir.

    (And to the rest of you boaters out there I'd say, and I'm sure pete would agree with me: Be sure to wear your life vests. I know they can be uncomfortable as hell, but maybe one day you and your loved ones will be glad you did.)

    So terribly sad. A warrior on the field, he is a Longhorn Legend. :hookem:

    So many from that era have passed away. Rest in peace Pete.
