If I close my eyes and concentrate on Lubbock, I can almost smell the feedlots.

How would you feel if you learned that some Texas starting player had bet on that NC game against Alabama? Not good at all. This cannot be allowed to stand.

Sorry I missed Ted. Billy entered the 1970 Cotton Bowl game against ND after Ted got knocked out. Then Billy scored the winning touchdown.

Interview with some older champions, Ted Koy, Billy Dale, David McWilliams, etc.

As much money as I have sent to Dell over the years, I am feeling a tiny bit philanthropic today.

My daughter worked for Mack Brown her senior year at Texas. She said that Mack had the gift of remembering the names of thousands of people. I really wish I could do that.

We were there at the same time. I had never witnessed anything comparable to Earl and I still haven't. He was an absolute beast and so quiet and humble. It was such a shame that Roosevelt Leaks hurt his knee before his senior year when Earl was a freshman.

Leaks could have likely been our first Heisman winner if not for the spring training injury his senior year. He was that good.

By the end of the 1968 season Texas was head and shoulders the best team in the nation. The backfield of Chris Gilbert, Ted Koy, Steve Worster and James Street were smoking with gas.

Need a category for Team Leader that includes James Street, Major Applewhite, Marty Akins, etc. Anyone that doesn't have Earl Campbell listed at #1 never saw him play in person. You have to remember that DKR played him as a fullback for three seasons and he was injured his junior year. He was not played at tailback until his senior year under Fred Akers.

And their carcass has not since Hitler invaded Poland.

I always wanted to see this happen to Jackie Sherrill.

More experiences.

He is counting 2" of hair in that photo. Kylar Murray is short. Baker Mayfield is short by NFL standards. I dislike short quarterbacks except for Donnie Wigginton.

And now the NCAA is going to allow corporate advertising on the players uniforms. Yuke. Please don't do it Texas.

I went outside to put out birdseed and nearly froze my hands in just a few minutes.

Wind chill below zero in Waxahachie this morning.

Thundersleet in Waxahachie.

Five years ago we went 5 days and nights without power with a temperature of 0 degrees and minus 2 degrees at night. (all electric house) I managed to save all the plumbing but that was a challenge. Thanks Mark.

Let the aggys laugh. I laugh at their trophy case.

Adopted from a rescue place in Mason, Texas.

Brian Millard, OT and I may be one of the few that remember him.
