I was at the $MU game at the Cotton Bowl Stadium when Roosevelt Leaks rushed for 342 yards from the Fullback position in the Wishbone. He and I graduated in the same class and I told him I enjoyed that performance against $MU. He said it was the only time he'd felt totally exhausted after a game. He was a great player and representative for the University of Texas. Hook 'Em! 4 Quote
Hornmatic Posted May 28 Posted May 28 My dad went to Reagan and enjoyed the interview too. Evidently he met Brad a time or two and had some friends in common. Got this text after the interview. I remember him riding up to a party on a motorcycle and Tommy Walker saying, “ what’s that big guy picking on that motorcycle “. It was a Kawasaki 350, not a small bike. Brad was a real friendly guy. 4 Quote
