A back from Houston, Texas, inducted in 1978, he starred for the Texas Longhorns from 1966 to 1968, earning Consensus All-American honors in 1968 and All–Southwest Conference recognition all three seasons. He was co-captain of the 1968 SWC co-championship team, finished eighth in Heisman Trophy voting, and became the first collegiate runner to surpass 1,000 rushing yards in three straight seasons. A three-time team MVP, he led Texas in rushing each year and in scoring as a junior and senior, finishing with 3,231 rushing yards and 28 touchdowns—becoming the first Longhorn to reach both 2,000 and 3,000 career rushing yards. He was later selected in the 1968 NFL Draft by the New York Jets and named to the Football Writers Association of America’s All-Southwest team for the 1919–1969 era. Gilbert passed away on February 8, 2026.
