My beautiful friends, I spent three hours yesterday with Quinn Ewers and surprise guest, Cedric Baxter!
As some of you may recall, I got to hang last summer w/ Mr. Ewers and Colt, and this time it was even more fun, if that's possible!
He looks a little taller than last year, perhaps because he has slimmed down so much. Of course, I've fattened up, so there's that, too, haha. He is just about the nicest, most humble young man you can imagine. Plus, he can handle a vintage pickup truck and can rock a cowboy hat and some sweet Tecovas!
I didn't know Cedric Baxter would be hanging with us. He's trimmer than I thought he would be. He is a very sweet young man. Again, humble, smart and very approachable. I spoke to him at length and learned all about him. He told me about being originally committed to Florida State, which was his dream, but how when Coach Choice came to Texas, it was a done deal. He also wanted to leave the state and see more of the world, but he eventually would like to play for the Dolphins. He is also quite interested in fashion and has even created his own brand! You can follow him at @c4era on Insta. I want to to help him promote it. We talked about how much we both liked Jahmyr Gibbs, who is a product of Choice. I told him I can't wait to watch him on Sundays. I told him I knew we would beat Bama when he got the start, cause we weren't playing scared. He said coming here early gave him the jump on learning the system and he appreciated the trust the coaches have in him. He said his injury is nothing to worry about and he didn't move hurt at all. I also met his family. They were wonderful and are very protective of him. It made me realize how young he really is, as I think he said he came here when he was 17! I told them he is going to do great things in football or otherwise, and they appreciated it. He also expressed to me about how much the win over Bama meant to Quinn in a really powerful way.
I also got to talk shit with Quinn about Westlake. I told him that his Bama performance didn't surprise me, after I saw him carve up the best defense in our Westlake's history. (In my view, the Westlake game was harder than the Bama game, cause he had time against Bama while he was running for his life the entire HS championship game, and he was playing hurt!) He is such a gentle soul at heart and so easy to talk to. We talked about how happy we were that his HS teammates ended up at Air Force and SMU. Lot of talent from Southlake. For our pics, I migrated him to the new Mathew McConaughey "Hook 'em," just to piss you olds off. (Haha, I'm 63) Quinn kept bringing it back that they aren't done yet, and is really looking forward. I believe him!
Here are some pics. Love y'all!
Bro can style
Sweet young man going to do great things
Haha, check out the driver behind him.
I need to lay off the Megastuff Oreos, but have you tried them? Did you know yo can have pictures printed on Oreos now? We did for daughter's college graduation party. They look awesome.
Sweet
Deal with it.
What a great guy.
Cedric having fun.
How awesome is this?
Next to the video of a the dude getting his pickup truck spun around by a tornado, then driving away, this might be the most Texas thing I've ever seen.
