In Rod we trust!

Proud to keep the legacy of Longhorn Blitz alive alongside the only member of the full-time OTF staff with a licensed NFL rookie card!

Gird yourself for the insanity.

I cannot imagine how much faster Rod B. would've been in today's gear.  Those shoulder pads and thigh pads had to account for at least .2 seconds 

Rod is a longhorn legend. He also made a pass at my sister at a whataburger when he was doing a remote with Jon Madani back in the day, that sly devil.

New OTF merch suggestion:

Hat or shirt with Rod B’s  1999 NCAA Football video game likeness 😂

Or a shirt - “Nobody catches the ball on my side of the field.  Not even me.”

This is so clutch. Hope your AI image generation skills are ready Rod, you're gonna need em

What’s Up OTF fam!

Happy New Year and what a start to it. When I heard about everything that was happening on the site I had to jump on and join the conversation. 

First, I just wanted to offer a warm welcome to the newest members of OTF and show my sincere appreciation for all the OTF OGs who have have helped build this community, for which I'm very grateful. 

Second, I played on some really good teams at Texas, so I know how it feels to be on a good team and OTF has assembled a great one. Also, as of today none of our guys have any plans to enter the portal. 

Third, one of my New Year's resolutions is to participate and post more on the site so this is just the first of many. I know alot of you all from the chats on youtube but I can't wait to further the discourse on OTF.com. Sorry, no hot takes, stats or breaking news on this first post, just wanted to say thanks to you all. Stay tuned...

Hook Em Horns!

Rod B.

First time subscriber to OTF and long time listener on other sites and YouTube. This site is second to none when it comes to content, updates and mods. Thoroughly enjoying my subscription and looking forward to this upcoming season. Ya’ll do amazing work🤘🏻🤘🏻🔥🔥

Love you Rod B! Still remember listening to you on the radio during my years on the 40 acres and have thoroughly enjoyed your breakdowns and analysis on OTF the last few years. Hook ‘em!

The enthusiasm you always show on YouTube broadcasts lets me know I am not the only one who acts like kid in a candy store when it comes Texas Football. Hook’em and welcome to the forum world!

I wish people knew and/or could see how much Rod works on his craft to give the masses the best possible information. He’s the real deal as a friend/teammate/colleague.

You need to do the Longhorn Blitz's Rod Babers introduction on the podcast.

I did it on the livestream the night before the bowl game.

If I told my wife that my New Year’s resolution is to spend more time on message boards she’d definitely punch me in the D. 

I looked up some Rod stats.  Did he really have 5 interceptions?

We’ve seen the notebooks 😂

Rod B!!! Your hard work and knowledge are greatly appreciated! 🤘

Rod B!!

I’ve learned so much about the game itself from listening to your insight on the livestreams. That’s what I love about OTF…you have the insiders with the team news and guys like yourself, Coach Shipley and more with game analysis. Best in the biz all around. Won’t find that anywhere else!

Rod B loved watching you play college ball! Listened to you on the radio for a long time. I remember Longhorn Blitz with you & Jeff too! Was so happy to find OTF to continue listening to the great shows, interact with this great community! 🤘
