Offseason Discussion: Texas Sports Mount Rushmore


In the off period these next couple of days in the football offseason and between the baseball regionals and super regionals, I figured it wouldn't be the worst thing in the world to get a little non-expansion discussion going in the offseason.

My idea came from a Tim Cowlishaw column i read in yesterday's Dallas Morning News about his coaching "Mount Rushmore", where he picked the greatest coach in each popular sport.

I'm going to take that one step further and ask about your Texas sports Mount Rushmores? Who's faces do you carve on the side of the mountain. Here are mine: (note: I'm leaving coaches off the all-sports Mount Rushmore to make it a little less difficult and football dominated)

Coaches:

Darrell Royal, Mack Brown, Augie Garrido, Eddie Reese

Football:

Vince Young, Earl Campbell, Tommy Nobis, Colt McCoy (by a hair over Ricky, could go back and forth on this one for hours)

Basketball:

TJ Ford, Kevin Durant, Slater Martin, LaMarcus Aldridge

Baseball:

Keith Moreland, Roger Clemens, Huston Street, Brooks Kieschnick

Overall:

Earl Campbell, Kevin Durant, Vince Young, Roger Clemens

What are yours?
