As coaches go, sure. But not when it comes to being a decent person.

Tommay was pure shit.  I hate that motherfucker and hated that he ever had anything to do with Tech-  and that was before he really showed us who he was.

Good point. Forgot about him. Different cheeks from the same ass.

I was at that game.  You could see the PA open up and Sammy running free with no aggie anywhere near him.  The whole stadium saw it, except for the 11 aggies on the field at that moment.  Zebbie just had to get it close to him and it was an automatic TD.

It was glorious.

My only time I ever got to travel to an away game with the team.  Probably saved Rick Dykes job as well (he was OC at the time and his offense was completely anemic).  Getting on the plane, he looked like he had just lost his dog...had zero emotion after that win.

Iceman’s pics have made me change my position. I think Tech will win the NC.

I'm just cruising through the offseason, looking up old dudes, and not so old.  Robert Hall, for instance.  I wish he could have played for Leach.  Holy furk Hall was before his time.  and this is the only fucking picture I can find???

and LOL at the hits Texas fans like to bring up.  They killed a punter, a 5'nothin WR, and 2 QB's who weren't looking.

Hell at least Earl almost killed a man who was 1000% in position to defend hisself.

You pick the weirdest things to try to tweak us about

Not tweaking.  Those just are always on auto-come back.  I know they are cominq.  Oh well...  Want to stick your chest out about nailing a punter?

Fuck yeah.  Great hit brother.

It's in the game.

Mahomes was looking. He was a runner at the time.  And looking right at Diggs, who knocked him the fuck out with a clean hit.  Unless he had his eyes closed while running, he was looking and not defenseless.

Mahomes learned on that play, to never do that again.

In my recollection, he hasn't.

Gotdam I hate those helmets too.

I remember when Shane Dronett drilled the shit out of whatever QB was playing for Tech back then.  I made a cursory search of the google machine but couldn't find a picture or video.  It was great.  Pretty sure the QB saw that one coming too.

Aaron Humphrey just about killed Kingsbury multiple times in early 00s.  I had a lot of respect for Kingsbury.  This was early Leach before they adopted OU’s let’s just hold every play because the refs won’t call it much any way.  The bullshit holds they allowed on Orakpo and Kindle in 2008 still pisses me off.

Everybody just about killed Kingsbury.  a few games in particular, the defense would be like, "stay down, bitch!!!"

one of toughest SOBs ever.  and a pretty boy.  Great Red Raider.  Not a HC, but one hellova QB whisperer.

Everyone responded to him pretty much besides the Ewok. The Ewok ran off Kingsbury AND DHop.

This jersey may or may not be in my possession.  That and an EJ Holub signed helmet are my 2 favorite sportsy things.

"The Brand" is really gay when you have not won jack shit ever.  Is that like some Yellowstone ripoff?

Gay? Really? In 2025? C’mon now. That was really well done. When expectations are low, it’s easier to impress when recruits discover that are actual roads in Lubbock.

Do you actually believe that this is something other schools are dumb enough to tell recruits? You cite 2025 as a reminder of the times and then you appear to be willfully injecting typical McGuire bullshit directly into your system. You post like a fucking dunce. 

Evil Tech Fearing Opposing Coach: “Oh there are no roads in Lubbock. It’s all caves and mud and shit. “

Dumber Than a Sack of Hammers Recruit: “Yikes!!”

<hangs up, dials Joey Fucking A McGuire>

Dumber Than a Sack of Hammers Recruit: ”Oh noes, I can’t come to Lubbock, coach, you guys lack first world infrastructure!”

Joey McDUI: ”Don’t you go believin’ them lying sips and bears, boy. Lubbock not only has roads and plumbing, we also got a damned Jason’s Deli and a Chili’s. You tell them other sonsabitches you were born to watch titles being won on tv while you sit in your dorm during a dust storm in By Gawd Lubbock, Texas!!!”

Oh yeah, that tracks for sure.

There's even a previous, vacant Best Buy...and a bunch of old Town & Country Convenience stores( Now Stripes.)

As has been said multiple times, y'all keep playing this idiotic "Lubbock is in the stone age" card.  You never lived it.  It's a great fucking place to go to school.

Yep, it's the facilities and the Red Raider culture.

Didn't Campbell admit to offering $650k when other schools offered players $500k? I'm sure the +30% Tech bonus money had nothing to do with it.

The money has everything to do with it.  Same as it does in Austin, Athens, or Columbus.  Let's stop playing like the actual campus experience has a fucking thing to do with the other, because it doesn't.

Wanna know why UT fan is disliked?  Because some ( a shit ton) operate from the notion that they don't have to pay anyone.  Players just come there because it's so fucking perfect.  Only place in the world...even in the 70's...and it's a gotdam lie.

Ok, I recognized Spike Dykes. Is it bad that I don’t know who any of those other guys are in Iceman’s pictures?

I’ll have to take your word for it on Lubbock. Confession- I had my SATs sent to TT. I was going to be the first in my family to go to college and I wanted to study engineering. We had been living in Fort Benning, Georgia when Dad retired from the army and moved to Texas. I knew that in Georgia, if you wanted to study engineering, you went to Georgia Tech, so in Texas…

 I figured it out when TT sent me an informational booklet that, I kid you not, had the pages and cover actually cut in the shape of a cowboy boot!

There is a lot of truth to the saying, “Get your grades up or get your guns up!”

You didn't apply to aggy? They's got the bestest engineering school in TX (according to them).

As a realist, I'm sure UT was involved in the bag game at some level over the years. We just didn't have to pay out nearly as much as other, less desirable places. Based on photos and what I've heard, I'm sure Tech's campus is no longer a deal-breaker for y'all.

Just win, baby!
