Max Wittek will not be a Longhorn. Something unpublished happened and he will not be graduating in the Spring semester. Strong has pulled the scholarship offer. A JuCo QB, Allen Thigpen, is being evaluated by the staff.
Ash's Jones fracture has a 25% chance of not healing in the ideal timeframe.

My favorite Chinese proverb roughly states that it is a curse to live in interesting times. The Longhorn football program has gotten even more been interesting.

So frustrating.

Is this article a joke???

Do the Horns really have the fourth-best DL in the Big 12? - Burnt Orange Nation


Malcolm Brown, Desmond Jackson, and Ridgeway leave question marks for the group as a whole? Paired with Cedric Reed, and Davis/Bluiett - gives us the 4th best D-Line? Right behind Baylor?

Meant to creat own thread with that last one. Oh, well.

#16 is Jamile Johnson. He's 6'0", 180# and a safety out of South Oak Cliff.
He was originally committed to OU, changed it to North Carolina and switched to Texas shortly after getting an offer.

#17 is Breckyn Hager, 6'3"210 LB from Westlake. He's the 4th son of Longhorn LB legacy Britt Hager.

Here's the story when I worked at UT I had to rewrite from Cobol into Natural a program that automatically sent letters to former students that owed money to UT. During the process I recognized Britt's name on the list. He owed something like $300 and he was a LB for the Eagles in the NFL. I never followed up and don't know if he ever paid the money back.

Doesn't matter now, because debts are forgiven after 7 years of non-payment. It's the law, unless you're stupid enough to give them money after years of non-payment.

Congrats to Brecklyn for receiving a scholarship offer from Strong. Mack was an idiot for not offering his older brother Bryce.
