AUSTIN, Texas – The Texas Football program will be represented in the Super Bowl for the 15th-straight year, as a quartet of former lettermen will take part in the game on Sunday, Feb. 2. That group includes San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan, special teams coordinator Richard Hightower and wide receiver Marquise Goodwin, as well as Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Alex Okafor.
Shanahan, an Englewood, Colo. native, twice lettered at Texas as a non-scholarship wide receiver (2001-02). After graduating, he immediately began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at UCLA.
