August 19, 20241 yr I think the players of that era called Street “Slick” as he had the current Elvis vibe going for him too. Might be wrong, but that’s always what I thought over the decades.Hook’em!!!
August 19, 20241 yr 9 hours ago, Doc Daneeka said: Well, once Street was running it rather than Bradley, anyway. While this is undeniable, I give Super Bill a lot of credit for the way he handled it. Changed positions twice in '68 and never complained, a real team player. Of course, it also worked out pretty well for him also. 😉

DKR's criteria should be tweaked for Street. 20-0, beat Arky and Irish for national title. -- Against Arky, completed the 4th down long pass on what Beano Cook of ABC called the "play of the decade" for the 1960s. The greatest pass play in UT history in the second biggest game, exceeded only by 2006 Rose Bowl. -- Won title by engineering clutch drives to Beat Arky and ND (when ND was decided to join 20th century to play bowl games) on national TV with massive audiences. -- Ran the Wishbone like an artist, making it a thing of beauty and scoring machine that revolutionized college football offenses. -- Fielded phone calls from freaking Elvis. 16 will be retired I’m sure.

August 20, 20241 yr What's this shit I'm seeing about no in-and-outs? And yeah, spare me the I didn't--this shit was news to me.
August 22, 20241 yr So sponsor for the game.

August 22, 20241 yr The best sponsor we could get for this game is a group of storm chasers??? Really???
August 22, 20241 yr So the Longhorn showdown is not only sponsored by an aggy company, but also one that does aggy NIL deals? Not sure how excited I should be..

August 22, 20241 yr Cotton was founded by Pete Bell, SHSU alumnusHis right hand woman is full aggy. Oh, and Sammy state is full of students who think of themselves as aggy since they party in the station.

August 22, 20241 yr In a way, it seems better for us if this company is an aggy NIL donor. Some of their sport dollars will be redirected to us.

Street recalled that on the night he was taken backstage to meet Elvis, Elvis was the only person in the room who argued that Texas deserved to win the "Game of the Century" against Arkansas. Everyone else believed Arkansas was the better team and should have won. Years later, I had the honor of meeting George Klein at Graceland. When I mentioned this story, he confirmed it was true and admitted that he was one of those who, at the time, thought Arkansas was the better team.

August 22, 20241 yr 2 hours ago, TrashMaster G said: Yeah, CDC needs to hear about this. How many years is this agreement going to be in place? Trev said it starts as a 3yr deal... that could be extended
August 22, 20241 yr 2 hours ago, LTtxfan said: CDC heard about Weigman's NIL deal with "Cotton" multiple times in the presentation today... such an aggy show I would not put it past CDC to put it in the contract that they can no longer give aggy players NIL contracts. Why else would Texas agree to a company with Cotton in the name in 2024? The reason I said aggy had brought in the sponsor had nothing to do with research and everything to do with the name of the company.
August 22, 20241 yr This whole thing is cringe AF and looks bush-league. 1) Its obvious that aggy whined like a motherfucker when we joined the SEC, thus them getting the first FB, BB, WBB, and Volleyball games/matches 2) Never heard once of this small potatoes sponsor before today. Meanwhile, the RRS is sponsored by AT&T and such 3) Texas will win this hilarious “competiton” every.fucking.year. Aggy wont even come close. We have finished 1, 1, 2, 1 in the Directors Cup the past 4 years. Meanwhile, aggy just finished with their second-best finish (and highest finish in over a decade) ever this year at #6. Might as well just put this made-up crap trophy in Austin, permanently. 4) Yeah, they definitely fucked CDC today. Everyone watch the tape at 27:10 mark
August 22, 20241 yr Why did they settle on this sponsor? I’d like to hear about the decision making behind it? Did they just offer the most money? Was it the dog shit NIL angle as main factor? Why not a more well known brand?
August 23, 20241 yr What in the fuck is that “necklace” she’s wearing? And isn’t she on the list after calling us “UT” repeatedly?
