Ex-Texas Longhorns Power Back with Proven Burst, Now Thriving at Texas A&M-Commerce
Joe Bergeron, a 6-1, 232-pound downhill bruiser from Texas Longhorns (2011-14), tallied 1,392 career rushing yards and 25 TDs—including 16 in 2012 (2nd in Big 12)—with highlights like 191 yards as a freshman vs. Texas Tech and 136 vs. Kansas; dismissed from UT in 2014 for team rules violation but rebounded at Texas A&M-Commerce, showcasing physicality, vision, and five 100-yard games. His size-strength combo differentiates him as an NFL-projectable power runner (per RSP analysis)—ideal for teams needing a tough, chain-moving RB with high-motor intensity.
