I agree. I don’t think there’s anything I looked more forward to when I was kid than watching the weekly episodes of Inside the NFL. He and Nick Buoniconti made such a good team. That show was mesmerizing for some reason. During the show I would draw pictures of the NFL helmets. Back when the NFL wasn’t pimped out like a WWF/WWE match.
Just want to give a shout out to this guy since we’re 10 days away. Those weren’t the greatest years for UT football but those 4 wins over OU were pretty damn awesome. I was in attendance for 2 of those 4 wins. My years in high school aligned with his years at Texas. I wanted to be just like him so I wore number 10 as well. The pass to Johnny Walker in the last minute of the 89 game is one of my favorite memories of the RRS.
One of them is my son. Glad he learned something in college…lol. One is named after a computer, one sounds similar to a former Baylor QB, one is a savior, one was a Top Gun instructor, and the other we’re still looking for.
I’m late on this but he was my next door neighbor when I was a kid. My mom and grandmother would make dinner for him from time to time. He was an awesome guy. Would throw the football around with me in the front yard. I used to get sad when he’d have to leave for camp. Very much a part of our family for a few years.
