The state of Texas may be known for high-flying offenses, but in 2021, it’s defense that will rule the day — and the cover of Dave Campbell’s Texas Football.
Dave Campbell’s Texas Football revealed the cover of its 2021 summer edition on Friday — the 62nd annual “bible of Texas football” — featuring a quartet of stars from Texas A&M’s ferocious defense: linebacker Micheal Clemons, defensive end DeMarvin Leal, cornerback Myles Jones and safety Demani Richardson. The headline lays out the stars, and the stakes: “THE NEW CREW: A&M’s defense leads the Aggies’ national title charge.” The four Aggies are the first defensive players to grace the cover of the magazine since TCU’s Tommy Blake in 2007, and the first defense-only cover since Aggie legend Dat Nguyen in 1998.
