  1. Fajitas: The birthplace of the Fajita was the Guajardo Grocery & Market in Austin, built in the 40's. Other parts of the family had farms in Pflugerville & Manor and brought crops and meat to the grocery store in Austin. The "Flank Stake" was a tough, thin piece of meat that was usually ground up into hamburger. The “Fajita King”, Juan Antonio “Sonny” Falcón, is credited with introducing the fajita to the general public in 1969 at a Diez y Seis celebration in Kyle, Texas. https://www.austinmonitor.com/stories/2013/11/landmark-commission-recommends-historic-status-for-east-austin-home/ https://www.austin360.com/obituaries/20191220/1938-2019-austinrsquos-rsquofajita-kingrsquo-juan-rsquosonnyrsquo-falcon-has-died
  2. Per Glen Mason, Offensive Coordinator who brought Nick Saban to Ohio St. in 1980, describing Saban’s recent success; “It's a perfect storm. You put a guy that's on the cutting edge of recruiting and coaching and works tremendously hard and put him at a school that has the ability to do those type of things. But still it's uncanny the success he's had." Sark & Texas in a nutshell. Sark pushing all the right buttons. Scheming your Heisman winning receiver into coverage by a linebacker. 😊😊😊. Gimme that fire hose, I want some more Kool-Aid!!!
  3. If we get Alabama’s OC and offensive line coach, does that mean &$@#% the Brockermeyers? Asking for a friend.
  4. RIP, Fred. A good man, and a good man to represent UT. Allways carried himself well. Many fond memories. 1977, Fred’s first year and my senior year, and Earl’s. 1st win over OU in 7 years; Texas lost 2 quarterbacks in the first half. The sea of people on the Drag that night. When asked about playing OU, “... they better have their headgear strapped on tight.” Heartbreak at the Cotton Bowl after drinking too much Orange Kool-Aid. “Air Fred” w/ Rick McIvor.
  5. Ran across this today while researching the archives. For you connected folks, it would be nice if the Horn's did a little light reading this week.

  7. My contribution on the way to 1,000. Very happy with 2018 and with the class we brought in, especially the way it looked early in the year with OU and A$M jumping out of the gates. Looking forward to melding in the new guys with what's coming back. Hook' em!
