  1. I've been a Horns fan since the 80's but some of the things I'm reading here are downright befuddling and suddenly explains so much about why the program has struggled since VY and Colt and that weird pre-Mack Brown wilderness. Some Alums and idiots on this forum think alum $$ can buy a winning program overnight. Let's get Saban! Let's get Urban! Let's get Andy Reid! Bump it, let's buy Belichick! Really? No, they don't see you the way you see you. If it were that simple and only about $$, UT would already be Alabama before BAMA was BAMA. If it were that simple Jimbo and his $75 mil would be righting the ship at A&M. The recipe for success is certainly NOT alienating Black athletes over a song - not matter how beloved.
  2. LOL! Seems like the players have more leverage than ya thought, right? Listen, better to be a 2-2 ballclub with real upside in the next 12-24 months, than one that damages itself so badly with Black athletes that it can't attract flies (or elite and conscious players) to a picnic. Progressive change is good. Better to be on the right side of it (with the players) vs. struggling through complete irrelevance, despite every possible resource at your disposal.
  3. The whole Eyes of Texas debate is tired and should be settled. Try no blue chip Black athletes ever wanting to play for UT if you roll back what you settled on - they should not have to sing a song they find offensive. Then the Alums can spend their $$ and time figuring how keep from becoming SMU circa 1980s, 1990's, 2000's. The BLM movement is bigger than a song and these kids didn't demand as much as they could have. Come to think of why did they even have to? Be better.
