Moderators Blake Munroe Posted May 27 Moderators Posted May 27 We are exactly 95 days away from Texas taking on Ohio State. Who was your favorite Horn to wear No. 95? Here are a few choices… Poona Ford Marcus Tubbs Oscar Giles Quote

Bobby Burton Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Oscar Giles was 95 when I was in school. Yes, the one in the black and white photo. Interestingly, no current player on the roster is wearing 95. 2 Quote
Burnt Orange Horn Posted May 27 Posted May 27 All are good choices. But since all the DT drafted lately were Oscar Giles' recruits, he gets my vote. Bo Davis talked good and coached well enough, but Baker is a definite upgrade. Quote
Hookem1012 Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Marcus Tubbs never gets any recognition. He was more than solid. 1 Quote
Moderators Gerry Hamilton Posted May 27 Moderators Posted May 27 Any DL that gets called for holding has a special place on my list 2 1 Quote
ArizonaLonghorn Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Poona grew up on the South Carolina coast, like I did, and he has the coolest name by far so gotta go with Mr. Ford. 1 Quote
Bevo92 Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Gotta go with Oscar Giles, he was from my era when Pete Gardere owned the Sooners. Hook em!! 🤘🏼🐂🧡 2 Quote
HDub1995 Posted May 27 Posted May 27 Poona was a bright spot during some very dark days as a Texas fan… plus I always love rooting for someone to prove everyone wrong. He’s done that and then some! Quote

Moderators Jeff Howe Posted May 27 Moderators Posted May 27 I love Poona Ford's story. And to hear Jason Kelce say on the record that Poona was one of the players he faced in his career who gave him the most problems is maybe the highest level of respect a defensive lineman can get in this era of football. 2 Quote

He was a stout little Manx (the cat, that is). I think Tubbs' game-winning blocked FG in Manhattan, KS in 2002 (which we watched with the NYC Texas Exes) earned the cat his name.
