Bio
Harley Sewell was a star wherever he played. At one time, he was an offensive guard for Texas. Then he played both ways and was middle guard on defense. The 1952 Texas team beat Tennessee 16-0 in the Cotton Bowl. Sewell was named Defensive Most Valuable Player. He led a defense that held Tennessee to six first downs and to minus14 yards rushing. Texas was the Southwest Conference champion in 1950 and 1952 with Sewell in the lineup. He was a two-time all-SWC player and a first-team All-America selection in 1952.
