I don't know if you get into breaks, but some breakers will sell a spot for all of the paper cards when they break Bowman products.

Can someone explain to me why the Big 12 thought it would be a good idea to schedule Texas Tech and TCU on Thanksgiving? Texas tried to start that tradition with both of them. Nobody cared.

I legit think I have over 10,000 Bowman’s coming. Found an auction site that sales boxes of like 400 each and I’ve bought somewhere around 25-30 at around $10 apiece. Some boxes will have football and Topps chrome and sometimes even better stuff but if I can land a solid # of McGonigle and Griffin’s I’ll come out way ahead. And that’s just those two guys from 24 and 25. Some might have 23 or other years. Won’t know until I get them Friday. They look like this:

I liked the basketball Rookie Sensations, too. Also, Fleer Pro Visions were the original Downtown hits!

That was a sweet subset. I remember collecting the frank thomas one

Oh yeah. That conversation with the wife is coming!

DeShon had one of the best seasons by a Texas DB that nobody remembers. Sad that it’s kinda been lost in the shuffle of the Strong-to-Herman transition.

I’ve nearly pulled the trigger on that a few times. Kinda went crazy buying this past week or two so gonna have to sale some of what I’ve had come in before I get more.

Those were monster chases back in the day!

I’m putting together a run of Longhorn 1st Bowman refractor autos. Baseball and Bowman Chrome U. Just picked up Max Belyeu this week:

These are my favorites and the Horns. I’ve got more but didn’t want to overload. And like I said earlier, I’ve got a TON of Bowman 1sts coming later this week and can’t wait to see which ones.

He’ll never amount to anything. I’ll be happy to dispose of that card for you.

I’ve either got the worst Jeff Bagwell rookie card you can have, or one of the best. ‘91 Fleer is like a movie that’s so bad, it’s good!

My dad ran a shop in Georgetown when I was a kid. The junk wax boom was nice because you were never too far from a store. Collected pretty much up until I graduated high school, but did buy a LeBron rookie because I figured it would be worthwhile to have down the road. It's not a huge card, but I like that it has gone everywhere with me since 2003.

Too many season game. Needs be no more than 12 regular season games. Nope on Boise State, Virginia, Indiana, Utah, Texas Tech, TCU, BYU

Texas wins the game if either Bert Auburn comes through or Trey Moore doesn't end Carson Beck's Georgia career on the last play of the first half.

I forgot how bad it was under Herman. And I'm scared to look back at where Charlie's teams ranked. It's been a problem for a while.

He wouldn't be staying in the draft if he didn't have that guarantee. Assuming the Mavericks keep pick No. 30, he won't get by them (and probably won't get by the Nuggets at No. 26, again, if those teams keep those picks).

I'd like Swain and Tre Johnson to pan out better than the last time Texas produced back-to-back lottery picks, which was Mo Bamba (2018) and Jaxson Hayes (2019).

Hope he can get into the 1st round

Very insightful stats Jeff. Imho, if we're going to increase our average penalties per game this season over 2025 levels we won't go very far, not unless we can still average 50-plus points a game. We would need a tremendous offset to overcome the opponents scores attributable to our penalties. I'd say we've got a lot to prove.

Good luck to Mr Swain. He seems like he’s a great representative of the University of Texas.

Best of luck to Dailyn! For Sean Miller's sake, it would be awesome if he hears his name in the lottery.

Good on ya! Go live your dream! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
