Ready, steady, go. Spring football is here, and the schedule is finally set. The Longhorns will kickoff the spring with a practice on Friday at 3:45 p.m. followed by a workout on Saturday Feb. 23 at 9 a.m. Both practices will be held at Frank Denius Fields (corner of 26th St. and Red River) and are open to the public. The annual Spring Jamboree will be held on Saturday, March 29th at 1:00 p.m. at DKR.
News from The Council. The Texas Intercollegiate Athletics Council for Men met on Tuesday to discuss a host of issues. Notable for fans: Football tickets will be more expensive this year, up three percent to $385 for seven home games.
Chip Brown also reports that the council is going over a proposal to retire Vince Young's #10 jersey, which would break from long standing policy of only retiring Heisman Trophy/Player of the Year winners.
Finally, Texas will honor the memory of Rooster Andrews both by naming the football team's special teams meeting room and the finish line at the track field after him.
Surprisingly accurate. When Orson sent me the link to this YouTube selling propoganda to crazy parents, I was skeptical, but it's surprisingly realistic.
Orson: The Longhorn video shows you how to be a Longhorn fan, and the Oklahoma one shows your baby how to make meth out of ingredients you can buy with an EBT card.
PB: Holy crap. They have the Sooner baby grabbing nitrous balloons
Orson: A baby with a huge catfish wrapped around its arm
PB: Can of Cope tucked in his diaper
PB: And another Sooner baby passed out drunk
Orson: I thought the drunk one was the kid who couldn't stack blocks
Orson: "Mommy is so proud of you, because it makes the check she gets from the government more bigger!"

Let Me Field This One...
Meekrob, the Sooner kids aren't crying because their little metabolisms are still fully dedicated to building strong teeth and bigger brains... Oh, god. I can't keep this lie together! We all know that Sooner kids don't cry because their little bodies are completely dedicated to growing mullets.
Morning Scone
Got to love Baylor...haven't beaten OU since 1977. Don't know if any of you watched the Bears play the Sooners in Norman last night, but somebody find Bearmeat and give him a hug...
After having two players ejected and two more foul out because they couldn't contain Griffin, "the red headed Sooner Step child" in the paint, Baylor still managed to tie it up on a last second lay-up from Jerrells and force OT.
In OT, they took a six point lead with two to go and had a four point lead with a minute left...it should have been "church" for the streak, but good old Baylor, with a 3-point lead, fouls a Sooner shooter behind the arc. Not only did he make the 3 pointer (of course), but he made the FT for the four point play and the lead.
But it gets better...there's still 7 seconds left, an eternity in college football, for Baylor to drive the length of the court and get a good shot.
Jerrells again drives to the hole and misses a lay-up attempt terribly but gets a gift call from the ref with one second left...he shoots two and of course, misses them both.
To top it all off, even on the second miss, a Baylor player gets his hands on the rebound and throws it back up in time, but it misses too.
Feel bad for the guys and I like Baylor's coach, he's done a heck of job with that team, but make no excuses, the last two minutes of regulation and OT were some of the worst examples of clock management I've seen in a while.
They're going to be talking about this one in a Waco for a while as it may mean the difference between them making it to the dance (but then again, dancing, like peeing on the bar, in Waco is prohibited isn't it?)
They burned all their late game magic
Against us. And lost that one too. Oh, the life of a Baylor fan. I do not envy it.
Krikey!
Guess which Baylor Bear was responsible for the foul that enabled OU to convert the 4-point play which ultimately won them the game...that would be Aarron The Bruce....poor guy just can't get a break.
poor brucey
Cant believe that guy put his name in the NBA draft last year before pulling out at the last moment. What a joke. That guy has ZERO chance of playing in the pros.

Rooster
He was one hell of a guy but one heck of a bad driver. He ran his car into mine back in the early 70s and as he had no insurance, he paid me off in sporting goods. I still have the first baseman's mitt.
As to VY, I think a proper tribute would be a statue down by Town Lake, across from Stevie Ray.
VY Statue
That goddess picture is scary looking.

Back To School
Speaking of VY, I read the story about him returning to classes...many are applauding him for finishing his degree (justified to be sure), but who wouldn't want to go back to college with $50 mil already in the bank...you'd have the sweetest pad in West Campus (which apparently VY does as his comes with his own gym and a pool), you'd have courtside seats for all the games, and most importantly, can you imagine the smoking hot piece of ass train you'd be conducting day in and day out...choo-choo-cha-booty.
No doubt they're already in talks to make a movie...call it "V-wYlder" or" "Back To School 2 - No Shorty Left Behind".
Errum...
Yeah. Until they get to this, "The Most Visited Black Website In The World" and his wimmens Candy and Fancy (no shit) are watching Oprah while VY is on diaper detail.
Don't worry, Vince. My man-crush is still intact!
Freakin' hillarious
That comment thread under that story is freakin' hillarious...
"Sideline hoes never win."
Ugh
That's an image I didn't want in my head.

Baby Longhorn DVD
I actually received the Baby Longhorn DVD as a gift when my child was born last October. Sadly, I still haven't had a chance to watch it yet.
Baylor Spring Football
... should be interesting. Kirby Freeman transfered to BU? Did anyone know this?
Quarterback Kirby Freeman, who started three games at Miami last season, transferred to Baylor and is eligible to play for the Bears immediately after being granted an eligibility waiver by the NCAA.
Also of note: Jevan Snead finally gets the starting job at Ole Miss.

Freeman
He was the worst QB Miami has ever had. Check out his line from last year's NC State game:
1-14, 84 yds, 1 td, 3 int.
Mind blowing.
sure, point out the 13 of 14 passes that sucked
but what about that one that was totally fucking awesome?!?!? 84 yds and a TD!
Has any...
program wasted more QB talent than Miami and Florida State?? It is hard to find a component more important to a successful staff. Both programs had enough talent on campus to win at least another MNC, each, had they been successful in developing a quality QB.
Perrilloux
Stewart Mandel addresses what we already know should happen: Why LSU should part ways with its potential '08 starting quarterback.
We dropped a star in Ramonce Taylor; hell, even OU kicked Rhett Bomar to the curb. Come on, Les, pull the trigger already.
perriloux
yeah right...Les won't do this because they had NOBODY behind him...even ou had Paul Thompson, who liked played the one bad TCU game...but if Miles did this, and they finish, let's say, middle of the SEC, the fans would blame Miles for it.
This guy has gotten too many chances and he'll probably get another ultimatum and will be able to join in the fall

Not the .....
.....case. There are lots of programs that would be happy to have Jarrett Lee on their roster. He's a darn good QB who threw for over 3,500 yards, with a 71.4% completion percentage, for Brenham HS.
Colt and Sam Bradford are both examples of 4-star* RS Freshman QBs that have succeeded playing for major programs.
