Texas City, Tx and I was 8 or 9 watch Major sling it

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. 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).

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

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.

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 🙂

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

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

You had me at OL crash outs

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 😂

🥹🤘 I would love that!!

It started off as competitive and I kept expecting Earl to break it open, and then Notre Dame started scoring and scoring and scoring. Nothing went right I don't even think Earl did not even score 😞

What year did you graduate?

Ugh. Ruined my New Year's Day.

Florida 1978 Cotton Bowl Classic — Notre Dame vs. Texas Thanks for making me remember that horror show . . .

Added just the Texas stuff to Gerry's post.

A good one to have!

😂😂😂

I've been a member since Gerry and Bobby and Blake got started with OTF, I currently live in San Antonio but grew up in Killeen. Gonna give away my age a little bit but my first Texas memory was the jordan Shipley kickoff return against OU

My first memory is sitting in my dad’s Volvo and listening to the radio while he ran into Kmart. I was young enough that if it was today someone would call the police. Texas was playing Rice and won 35-0. Pretty sure Earl Campbell went off that day.

My mom said when I was 3 years old, they put a Texas game on TV and I asked what was wrong with the Texans helmets since It was the Texans inaugural season and I got introduced to them. They explained to me that its college and how its all different. They said from that moment on I basically only wanted Texas stuff and that I cried once when I was 3 cause Chris Simms did a Hook Em to the TV and I thought it was to me....

I’ve been a member since Bobby & Gerry started OTF. First memory of Texas football was “Roll Left w/ James Brown”.

Nagy is going to get this writer on the phone and make sure he knows Venables had no input in structuring the team.

Thanks - caffeine hasn’t hit yet

Whoever said that about John (CJ) Midteer does not know ball
