BACKPANINI AMERICA HOOKS THE INAUGURAL UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS TRADING CARD BOX SET
Collection Includes Current + Legendary Longhorns
Irving, TX – December 17, 2025 – Panini America, the world’s largest sports and entertainment collectibles company, is introducing their first-ever trading card box set showcasing athletes from the University of Texas.
The Texas set features more than 200 trading cards and includes athletes from the Longhorns’ football, men’s and women’s basketball, women’s volleyball and softball teams, and will be available for sale at retailers and hobby stores nationwide, as well as on Panini’s website.
Included in the set are Arch Manning, Ryan Wingo, DeAndre Moore Jr., Madison Booker, Tramon Mark, Torrey Stafford, Emma Halter, Reese Atwood and Teagan Kavan. Former Longhorn greats are also featured, such as Earl Campbell, Vince Young, Mack Brown, Mia Scott and Madisen Skinner.
The collection contains Panini Prizm and Prizm inserts such as Prizm Fearless, Prizm Fireworks and Prizm Trophy Hunting. Additional inserts available in the box set include Color Blast, On Campus and the new Thunder insert.
Cards will be available at retail in four card packs, six packs per box and 20 boxes per case and will also have randomly inserted autographed cards and parallels. For Hobby, which have six cards per pack, there will be two guaranteed autographed cards per box, as well as two Panini parallels, one Prizm Camo and one Diamond Plate.
“This new Texas box set celebrates so many current and legendary Longhorns, and we believe that fans will really be excited to experience what the set has to offer,” said Jason Howarth, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Athlete Relations for Panini America. “As one of the nation’s outstanding athletic programs, the University of Texas has been a tremendous partner for us, and we are proud of this latest evolution in our work together.”
The trading card set is an extension of the partnership between Panini and the University of Texas. The Longhorns were an inaugural partner school in Panini College, a dedicated NIL platform that allows collegiate athletes to have their own Panini trading card. Panini also has an exclusive, multi-year autographed trading card and memorabilia partnerships with Arch Manning and is a partner of former Longhorns Tre Johnson and Quinn Ewers.
Panini has unveiled school-specific box sets for both the University of Connecticut and Ohio State University, with additional NIL box sets planned for the coming months.
