    It went out of bounds.

    The Eyes of Texas was written as a parody on President Prather in 1903 and people honestly think it is referring to slave owners keeping their eyes on runaway slaves? Really? It is not a proud fact but there were no Black students at UT for over 50 years after the song was written. What sense does it make for the students who were all white singing a racist song referring to Black slaves? If that were the case then it would have been documented as racists can't hide their racism for that many decades. And if the song was written for that purpose then of course we would ditch it.

    I'm a 1973 graduate, there were 4% Black students then and 6% now so I don't consider that very different. The biggest difference is the white percentage of students has decreased due to the increase of Asian-Americans and Hispanics. The campus was extremely liberal as evidenced by the size and number of anti-Vietnam War protests and McGovern won the presidential race in '72 by getting over 90% of the vote against Nixon. In 1971 the Student Senate voted to change the mascot from the Longhorn to the Armadillo because the Armadillo was more peaceful.

    10 years in the desert is too fucking long and for OU-sucks to win 6 straight championships is vomit worthy. MAKE IT STOP!

    You are correct. In 1971 I went to a 50th wedding anniversary in Schulenburg and was shocked that most of the people were speaking German (I grew up in Van Zandt county which was all WASPs.) I spent many Thanksgivings at their house and Clementine Frank made great kolaches which were only fruit filled. She did make sausage klobasneks too.

    Our expectations are too high. As a '73 graduate we have won 4 in my lifetime and should have at least 2 more, the '83 season and the '09 season. I call Bullshit on anyone saying the University of Texas has too high of expectations regarding football. RIP Coach Akers.

    A few years ago we ate at a Mexican restaurant in Waco that served that candy. I don't recall he name but it wasn't Monterrey House.

    The Monterrey House at the corner of Ben White and I35? Great memories from way back. My kids loved the brown sugar candy.

    Yikes! Hopefully the food has improved since 1971.
