  1. Past hour
  2. No worries my man. I had to double check myself.
  3. The judge for the injunction case
  4. Skenes stopped hitting when he got to LSU. Ohtani is a once-in-a-lifetime type of player. There are always exceptions. I was speaking more about guys at Texas and prospects coming from high school to college.
  5. First game to attend was TTU 1963. Texas band day, now long gone. 🙁
  6. 57 catches for 1,093 yards and 14 TDs on 19.2 yards per catch in 12 games as a junior
  7. The best WR prospect to come out of Longview since Jalen Hale in the 2023 class
  8. My first memory of Texas football was the 1964 Cotton Bowl and I hated them. Texas was # 1, Navy (!!) was # 2 with the Heisman Trophy winner Roger Staubach. I was a teenager growing up living at a small South Carolina beach town. The game was played just a few weeks after the assassination of President Kennedy (in Dallas), a former Navy officer and hero in WW II. Fair to say the sentiments of the nation outside the state of Texas leaned heavily to Navy. My dad had served in the navy during WW II in the Pacific, working the engine room on a heavy cruiser, so he was of course a big Navy fan. And Roger was easy to pull for. Didn't know anything about Texas. It was a massacre, 28-0 before Navy scored a late TD. Didn't like Texas for a decade after that but I got over it when I received a graduate scholarship to UT in 1973 lol.
  9. Grew up in North Jersey and now live in Charlotte. My first Texas memory in general was watching TJ Ford around the age of 8 as I was a basketball junkie. Funny enough, my first real memory of Texas Football was @ Ohio State and VY's pass to Limas Sweed. College Sports weren't huge growing up in the northeast (unless you liked PSU) so my friends would always call me crazy for staying in / watching all the games on Saturday's as opposed to NFL on Sunday.
  10. Won a ‘24 Dynasty Ken Griffey Jr patch auto /10 card a few weeks ago. It’s arriving today. Debating on if I should grade it or just keep it as it is. Since I wasn’t lucky(read spend enough on Topps.com) enough to be selected to purchase any of ‘25 dynasty yesterday, it may just end up being a PC Card for me, which is completely fine as he’s my favorite player.
  11. Been with OTF since very early when we got the news that Gerry was coming back. To anybody here new (and old), if you ever need prayer for anything or some sort of assistance or spiritual support and guidance- feel free to reach out.
  12. Texas City, Tx and I was 8 or 9 watch Major sling it
  13. Being born in 02 and growing up in the sad era of Texas football, my first memories are unfortunately hearing my dad scream when Colt McCoy left the game in the Natty vs. Alabama, and when Oklahoma State came to Austin in 2010 or 2011. I don't remember the exact year but vividly remember a hatred for Gundy's OKST developing that day since their was an OKST fan sitting in front of me with a humungous styrofoam orange cowboy hat that blocked my view even when I was standing on the bench lol. So I basically watched the game on the Jumbotron. And it was worse because Texas lost. Another one that sticks out is being in DKR for the Cal game in 2015. I've probably been to 2-3 dozen Texas games in DKR at this point, but that's the only game I can remember where my family's entire walk back to the car was dead silent since Nick Rose missed the PAT to send it to OT. As far as good memories go, the 2013, 2015, and 2018 wins over OU were awesome to watch on TV, and so was the Sugar Bowl win over Georgia in 2018. Another great memory was seeing my first TX-OU game in person in 2022 (49-0).
  14. Been here since the start. Earliest memory was with my grandparents watching Earl in the 70's when I was around 10 or so. Very fortunate to go UT and graduate. One of the best days of my life... Hook'em
  15. Someone asked me about wrong NBA MVPs. I'll restrict myself to this century. 2001, 2002, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2021, 2023, 2025, 2026.
  16. I am always fascinated with the evolution of how Texas is improving their NIL partnerships and how it all works BTS. I have notived we have really stepped up the caliber of brands that are doing these deals with our athletes! Not too long ago it was almost exclusively small local businesses or nonprofits. I love what we are doing. Also Curious to know if the “Longhorn Sports Agency” (link: https://texaslonghorns.com/news/2025/6/30/name-image-and-likeness-texas-and-learfield-launch-longhorns-sports-agency-to-drive-nil-innovation-for-student-athletes-powered-by-learfield-impact-nil-services) that was created in partnership with Learfield is used by our athletes, or how they go about utilizing it?? Is it for non rev sports only? Maybe a “Business 101” style NIL video would be a fun series so we can all better understand how it works 🙂
  17. Today
  18. Let's hope their readers are correct about who wins the SEC. Only 24 voters thus far, I'm guessing Texas fans reached the article via OTF. Bobby and the boys strike first again. Not much bulletin board material in the article, except maybe for Alabama
  19. My first game at DKR was 1970 against UCLA (I was 10). Down 17-13, Texas got the ball back with under a minute and Eddie Phillips threw a td to Cotton Speyrer to win the game 20-17. Extended their win streak to 23 games and went on to win a natty that year. Watched a lot before that game but that’s my first real memory of the Horns
  20. You had me at OL crash outs
  21. Joe Zura is rewatching the Florida game with me on IG live in a few weeks, maybe we can get a celeb guest appearance from @Gerry Hamilton👀 it will be a safe space for OL crashouts 😂
  22. 🥹🤘 I would love that!!
