Football walk-on KenWineburg was promised a scholarship in 1954 by coach Dutch Meyer if he made the team the following year. He didn't have to wait long, as six weeks later Meyer gave him a scholarship. Wineburg lettered four years in both football and baseball and earned an additional two letters in track. He was named to the All-SWC team in 1956 and started at halfback in the 1957 Cotton Bowl Game against Syracuse. Due to injury, Wineburg did not see action in three games in 1956 and missed being the leading rusher in the SWC by just 85 yards. He managed to lead the 1956 TCU team and Cotton Bowl Champions in scoring. In baseball, Wineburg was a pitcher on the first TCU Southwest Conference Championship team and placed third in the 1955 SWC track meet in the high jump.
Wineburg was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 1957. He was the President of the TCU Block T Association in 1989 and received a special service award from the Association as well.
