All-time NCAA Tournament lineup for the Texas Longhorns
NCAA staff writer Sam Fariss sets her starting lineup for the Texas Longhorns all-time NCAA Tournament team.

Despite never appearing in an NCAA title, the Texas Longhorns have had some of the most elite college basketball players to ever grace the court.
Taking the greatest players throughout the years, here is my dream team for the Horns:
T.J. Ford helped lead the Longhorns to their third-ever Final Four appearance in 2003. In his two seasons with Texas, Ford was a show-stopping offensive star.
From 2001-03, Ford scored an average of 12.9 points per game for a total of 1,706 career points. He also averaged 8 assists and 3.8 rebounds.
After two seasons and the Horns’ Final Four run, Ford had passed the 1,000 career assists mark. This means he accounted for at least 3,706 of Texas’ points while he was on the team.
