Lesser, unsuccessful schools will seek valdation from those above them. Its called inferiority complex.
Programs a mess. This has to get in order. Texas is slowly slipping. Feels like being a fan of the U.
now it looks like UT-Austin branch is losing their only 5 star recruit for the 2013 class....rumor is that A'Shawn Robinson will decommit and instead go to Alabama SHAMBLES
I'd like to thank bigtexxx for keeping up with Longhorn news more than me. Without him, I wouldn't know what's going on in the 40 Acres.

Quite frankly, this is a huge loss. I think the 14 guys committed + A'Shawn, Andrew Billings, and one more skill player (Selvin Young's little brother???) would have actually been a very high-quality class that would have done a lot to shore up a lot of needs. Reminded me a lot of the 2005 class... small class and pretty unheralded at the time, but high hit rate and good number of all-conference type players. Without ANY d-linemen and not a ton of speed at skill positions, this class loses even more of its luster. If A'Shawn is motivated (And who better for that task than Nick Saban), he will be a monster at the college level, point blank.
I think we have had top 5 classes the last 5 years maybe more and it hasn't translated to any success on the field.
Congrats on living your "Hood Boy" dreams and fantasy through a kicker. Keep playing chess on your ti-82. anyway, what's the deal, what high school punk kid is getting paid by tinman to come play for Texas?
Running back Kyle Hicks, the nation's No. 18 running back and No. 220 overall prospect, committed to Texas a year ago, but decommitted in December and flipped to TCU. http://espn.go.com/blog/dallas/colleges/post/_/id/4682121/tcu-making-big-12-recruiting-voice-heard
Cancer Surviving 14 Year Old Calls for Mack Brown's Head, lol smart kid right there. http://www.khou.com/news/Doctors-sa...lped-Cypress-teen-beat-cancer--189725901.html Doctors say 'accidental miracle' helped Cypress teen beat cancer CYPRESS, Texas -- He’s the self-proclaimed biggest Texas Longhorn fan in the world who would like to see a miracle turnaround for the struggling football team. But Nolan Conaway, 14, from Cypress, whose bedroom is painted white and burnt orange, will gladly live with the “accidental miracle” he’s been given so far. Conaway had already been complaining to his parents about headaches long before he and a friend got into a friendly shoving match a year ago. "We were just rough-housing, tripping each other. And he tripped me really good and I fell,” said Conaway. He fell on the left side of his head. By the time he got home his mom Candace was immediately worried about the amount of swelling between his left eye and left ear. “Always trust your gut,” Candace Conaway said of the year of medical visits that followed. Nolan’s injury wasn’t just a bump on the head; it was cancer. Doctors discovered a fast-growing tumor on the outside of his skull causing swelling outside his skull and pushing inside to his brain. “You can never overreact in situations like that,” she said. “Always trust your instinct. If you think something's wrong take them in (to the doctor) just in case." Doctors at Texas Children’s Hospital performed surgery the very next day to remove the golf-ball sized tumor and the fist-sized piece of compromised bone around it. He completed 29 chemotherapy sessions over the course of one year. And just last month, when he was declared completely cancer free, doctors installed a custom implant to replace the piece of skull they removed. "It's been rough,” said Candace Conaway. “It's been a long journey.” "It's been a long year for him,” said neurosurgeon Robert Bollo, M.D., with Texas Children’s Hospital and the Baylor College of Medicine. “Having his skull taken apart, having to wear a helmet and go through chemotherapy and he's finally on the other side. So we're really happy for him." Nolan’s one-year journey had a few other unexpected “miracles.” He got to meet Houston Texans defensive end J.J. Watt. At another event, he posed for pictures with country music star Jason Aldean. And as a Longhorn fan celebrating a now cancer-free life. we asked if he had any advice for his team. “Yes sir,” the always polite young man responded. But he also laughed, “Fire Mack Brown!” Nolan hopes to return to middle school next year. Meanwhile, the Conaway family devotes their time to raise awareness about childhood cancer. They are now part of a petition at Change.org asking the NFL and Major League Baseball to consider adopting “gold” as their color of choice during September. Just as “pink” is used to raise awareness for breast cancer research, gold ribbons are used to publicize September as Childhood Cancer Awareness Month.
Zero 5 star recruits for the University of Texas. When is the last time that happened? How low can you go, Texas?
I really don't get it. How long are you going to troll this thread for? Haven't you had enough already? You come off as more annoying than bigtexxx and that's saying a lot.
Trolltown's trolling is straightforward and pure. He has no affiliated motivation, he does it for sport. bigtexxx is a rice fan who likes to rub it in once in awhile. I'm fine with that knowing his reasoning. Trolltown's entire purpose on clutchfans is trolling and he's really good at it.
Future NFL superbowl heroes will come play for Texas! you also forgot to diss me for repping Chykie Brown! Congrats Chykie!
