  1. When Manny Diaz was Fng up our Defense, that’s when my Dad told Mack to just bring on Gary Joseph. I digress! Dad loved Mack, but he was hard headed on staff decisions. Hook’em!!!
  2. College coaches from throughout the US would come see him and his staff, during the Spring, and get his plans/opinions on defending the Spread Offense. Hook’em!!!
  3. Yes - but implementing plans and on the “chalk board”, he’d run circles around the likes of Todd Orlando - just saying. Hook’em!!!
  4. Why is “Texifornia’s” quotes/pictures blocked on each thread? Just curious, as he’s posted a lot lately, but they’re all blocked. I didn’t block his name or signature, so I’m just curious as to why I’m not seeing his posts? Hook’em!!!
  5. I know Coach Joseph personally and that tweet doesn’t surprise me one bit! My Dad retired from Katy ISD, and even though he’s in his 80’s, loves his Tigers and even “works” the press box on Friday nights. G Joseph is “for real”! My Dad, an over 30+ year TX HS FB Coach, used to always say during the “doledrums” of post-Mack, that UT should just hire Gary Joseph for the D side. Didn’t need to be the DC year one, but he’d be the DC within 2-3 years! That guy is a defensive mastermind and has seen it all, especially in TXHS football. All of our “local colleges” mirror what is seen on Friday nights - just my Dad’s and my opinion. Hook’em!!!
  6. The ‘63 Team will be honored pre-game, just like they did 10 years ago. Their 3-5 minutes on the field wouldn’t/shouldn’t have any affect on HT activities, nor the MOB attending. Hook’em!!!
  7. Try the MaxPreps app. They get in-game score updates better than a lot of sites. Hook’em!!!
  8. Yes - SEC and the decades of the “bag men” are no comparison to today’s NIL. We’re doing it right/legal and adjustments will definitely need to be made, by the older SEC members. This is a new era, so buckle up for the ride! That’s why Saint Nick went to DC a couple weeks ago. Hook’em!!!
  9. Imagine being your school’s claim to fame is JFF? How do you spin that narrative? Hook’em!!!
  10. I don’t even remember what I wore to work yesterday, so I agree with you and on your team. Hook’em!!!
  11. The SEC is in for a rude awakening once we’re a part of the conference. Their hubris will only go so far, as we will be the dominant force within 5-10 years. Hook’em!!!!
  12. I was told that the author had “loosely based” access and was highly opinionated. I digress and never read it. It’s kind of like being a Cowboys fan and not agreeing with the movie “North Dallas 40”. Hook’em!!!
  13. No - from all I’ve heard, the Hawaiian can play! He looks the part too! Hook’em!!!
  14. You ever watch/listen to the Finebaum Show, 2-6 local on the SEC Network? You will be “entertained” to what we are heading into in 2024! Hook’em!!!
  15. My Dad with VY at last year’s Alamo Bowl. This picture reflects a player from UT’s first National Championship and its most recent! Hook’em!!!
  16. It’s getting “dusty” in my house, so I’ll leave this thread alone. Hook’em!!!
  17. ArmyBrat - you were there. It was a different era compared to today. Hook’em!!!
  18. Back then all players had a 2nd position on the other side of the ball. Tommy Nobis was actually an offensive guard his Sophmore year and my Dad said he hated having to go up against him in practice, yes we’re talking practice! Hook’em!!!
  19. We need J Whit and his leadership on the field this year! Get healthy JW! Hook’em!!!
  20. My Dad was there, as they used to cross the creek bed to get to practice. All I can say that it was a hydration issue, as all my Dad was a “scout team” player his first couple of years. He actually had over 50 stitches to his face/body from practice, yes they had face masks and we’re talking about practice! Hook’em!!!
  21. No - he’s always said that his T- Ring will go with him, as he earned it and was given to him by DKR Himself . Coach Royal was actually recruiting in the Houston area and he attended my parents wedding in 1967. Deer Park was his first job coaching, where he met my mother. Hook’em!!!
  22. This is so true, as while I resided in Lake Charles, early to late ‘2000s, the Raising Canes franchise was just getting their feet on the ground. The ”Ownership Group” heavily influenced the LC crew and helped grow the LSU money bags - just saying. Hook’em!!!
  23. He won’t really reflect on his years on the 40 and his time being on the team, as he always referenced the success of the Team. He was truly a “Team Player”, as he didn’t “letter” until his Senior year in 1963. Hookem!!!
  24. I’ve told this story before, probably on the previous site, but my Dad was like “Rudy” a decade before there was a “Rudy”, Part of his “partial” scholarship was to work in the Athletic Dining Hall during the evenings. Can you imagine busting your ass off, then hurrying up to shower so you can “platter serve” dinner with guys you just practiced with. Then help clean up the kitchen afterwards. All in order to do the same the next day. Hook’em!!! That was his Freshman year. Hook’em!!!
