Before the Texas Longhorns take the field against the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs to kick off the season, the school will host the grand opening of the Frank Denius University of Texas Athletics Hall of Fame at 1 p.m. Central on Aug. 30. The event is free and open to the public with an RSVP.
Housed in the north end zone of Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium, the Hall of Fame is the first of its kind at Texas. Construction started in January on the $17.1 million project, which covers nearly 25,000 square feet.
