Coaches don’t see that and give him the next carry. Fortunately it was a short TD run

The "Post a Picture You Took" thread
I am just discovering this thread. I travel a lot and take tons of pics with my iPhone. Certainly no pro like some I see on here but if you take enough some of them are bound to turn out! Jenny Lake, Grand Tetons National Park Kauai Island Sunrise

UTSA Roadrunners
If you can coach you can coach. Traylor has the “It” factor when it comes to coaching. That, and recruiting.....he has been doing that for a very long time too! It would not surprise me to see him in Burnt Orange again.

Who Are The Best High School Football Players You Have Seen Personally?
Why is that? Didn't he have an ankle bracelet on during the playoffs? Your deadpan delivery about it made me chuckle. Otherwise I have no idea about who he even is!

Who Are The Best High School Football Players You Have Seen Personally?
This reminds me of a high school story. There was a thief on our team stealing items, mostly money, from the locker room. No one knew who it was. One day I was called into the coaches office. He gave me a $100 bill to place in my locker as bait. It worked. Caught the guy that afternoon trying to take it. I was scared!!

Rodderick Muckleroy (Hallsville). Excelled at UT. Kendrick Muckleroy (Rodderick's older brother. IMO was a better athlete than Rodderick but did not have the grades. He was always as fast as he needed to be and could change direction in mid-air.) Josh Cochran (Hallsville). Crushed people all of the time. Unfortunately he had a bum shoulder that never allowed him to develop proper upper body strength. Great footwork though. Started as a true freshman at Texas but retired before finishing his eligibility due to injuries. Now on Mack Brown's staff at UNC. LaMichael James (Liberty Eylau) Quick and fast. Had a great career at Oregon. Adrian Petersen (Palestine). We all know about him. Patrick Mahomes (Whitehouse) My son played against him for 6 years. Saw the progression. KD Cannon (Mt. Pleasant). He made some freaky catches. Had a good career at Baylor. Thought he would do more.

Texas athletes petitioning University to replace "The Eyes of Texas" and to no longer require athletes to sing it
Does anyone happen to have the playlists from past minstrel shows performed at UT? May as well clean the whole docket while we are at it. SMDH....

As I suggested in the TX/OU game thread: If the team wins they can leave for the lockers. They lose, they stay for the Eyes.

If you do not think that the song is not racist then by what logic can you support a group of people that think that it is racist? I am talking about facts, logic, and not the "feels".

Your screen name says it all. You should just quit the team. You are not worth even cutting.

As a paying fan/parent/alumni attending games, do I assume that the music played is only for the players? As an attendee can I not say it (other songs, not The Eyes) is offensive?

Not talking about the players specifically. Read in context. And, you know the answer.

It is OK and prudent to ask these questions but the first time that you disagree on something, well....

Surly Official 2020 TX vs OU Sucks: 11AM on FOX [FUCK OU]
Make a deal with the team; You win, you do not have to sing the "Eyes". You lose, you stand out there and sing it with gusto. I bet they would not lose again.

This right here and some other recent posts are spot on. Herd mentality takes over and people protest for the sake of protesting and do not do their own research or they only live in the moment and do not even know what their end game is. Logic is being defied. I don’t understand how the knowledge of this song was only known to, or at least promoted, to a certain group of people? I was on campus in the mid-80’s and never heard as such. What is next in the pipeline?

Might as well do away with the Pom Squad as well as I am sure that many see that as sexual exploitation. Ol' Smoky the Cannon should go away too so that those that are opposed to "guns" are appeased. Let's also do away with Bevo on the sideline too so that PETA will be happy. Probably should ousts the cheerleaders too although they are a diverse group; we certainly do not want a small group of kids telling the masses to stand up and cheer against their will.

Just watched the end of the 1969 Texas/OU game on ESPN. Chris Schenkle, the ABC broadcaster, said the following statement on TV after witnessing the singing of the "Eyes of Texas": "Well, I think you have to admit, that if that doesn't grab you, well, you don't, don't only have an ear for music, you do not have much emotion."

IMO the band and other school related "traditions" are key elements that separates the college football gameday experience from the pros.
