ESPN GAME DAY

[Neonmoon 38,129]

I would suggest Jon Hamm but don’t think he wants anyone bringing up hazing incident 

Owen Wilson? Kevin Durant?

[Hozz 1,017]

Durant would be a better choice than an astronomy nerd.

[4th&Five 41,506]

Nets play in LA on Saturday. VY? He was part of the Fox show in September. 

[millhouse 2,603]

Obviously should be Jay Mohr just to troll the fuck out of Brando and Fox

not exactly a good relationship there...

[billfromlaketravis 11,445]

Nets are at the Clippers at 3pm on Saturday. Durant isn't happening. 

They might have to go with famous person living in Austin.

Can't say I blame him.  Would be cool to get Wes Anderson to draw up a play using stop motion/animatronics puppets.  But he has virtually nothing to do with UT, much to their chagrin.  

How about F. Murray Abraham?  Or Bruce McGill?  I see him on South Congress every now and again.  

I'm guessing they'll play it safe and go with Clemens.  

[mdleast 8,289]

What's your problem with Murray Abraham?

[Modessit 5,598]

Nolan Ryan still around? Or anyone with an Astros and Austin connection?

I'd love to see Clemens up there. He'd be perfect for gameday especially with the Astros winning the WS this weekend.

[4th&Five 41,506]

Kody Clemens, maybe. 

[Dbeasy 15,040]

Bruce McGill would be awesome.

I'd also love to see Joe King Carrasco for the lulz. He was performing 40! years ago when I was in college, and saw he was still performing last weekend.

[GreenspointTexas 9,598]

Hoping for Robert Rodriguez but itll prolly be Greg Abbott

[Surly Bevo 24,908]

Is there anything big going on in the world of golf next weekend?  We got a lot of those guys...

[4th&Five 41,506]

Houston Open. Not sure about Jordan but I think Scottie is in the field.

I think he was on DKR's team for a season but never played. He's still a huge Horns fan.

I can attest.

[CSB]Wife and I were driving back home from Houston and had a uhaul in tow with a new refrigerator.  Wife reminds me we needed a couple of twin mattresses for our son's room and since we had the uhaul, could we stop at Gallery furniture.  Long story short, we stopped, we got some pretty mattresses for cheap, I went to take a piss and there was all of this 2005 National Championship memorabilia in the shitter, including a signed VY jersey.[/CSB].

 

The dude loves the Horns.

[Wally Pryor 5,261]

There is no better ambassador for the school right now.

Stops and ends here.

I think they'll most likely have him on the show for a segment but don't expect him to be the guest.

They better. We play Gonzaga that next week. Good time to promote, although I believe it’s sold out.

Beard is our best shot to be elite in the two sports that really matter. 

If he isn't being showcased to the hilt on Saturday then we're stupid, and beyond.

[Loop 1604 227]

Jeff Hildebrand would be a good guest picker.

Grant Pinkerton. Longhorn. Astros fan. BBQ. Gameday guys would love him.

[mdmost 42,997]

Scottie Scheffler but he's probably playing in the Houston PGA tournament.

T’was being sarcastic. And UT BoR and alumnus. And namesake for Petroleum Engineering dept.

[YGIFS 19,449]

Yeah, I think a Clemens tie-in with Astros World Series win is starting to make more sense.

They could also just go for who's "hot" right now and pick Brenne Brown.  She's nice and all, but if somebody could explain to me why exactly she's famous?  I have no idea what she does.  She does research and writes on education?  Seems very generous with her time and treasure anyways.  

Most young people watching wouldn't recognize Bruce McGill even though he still works a ton in Hollywood.  And he doesn't mind being bugged about "Animal House" but you telling me you couldn't sell 10,000 burnt orange shirts with "Delta Tau Chi" on them on Gameday?  And they come back from commercial break and he's just gone from the set, "whereabouts unknown."  

Gary Clark, Jr. is hotter than hot right now as well.  I think he's known well enough by enough age brackets.  Not a UT guy, but certainly one of the more famous Austinites.  

Duplass Brothers are funny and likable.  But I'm guessing they're on location somewhere, since they make a movie about every 60 days.  

And the QB dude from "Varsity Blues" lives in the Hill Country.  He'd obviously be very up on high school recruiting as it pertains to college football.  

should be a blast.

[Player 4,575]

Either one (or both) of these gentlemen will do. 

[Surly Bevo 24,908]

If we are being intellectually honest GD isn’t in Austin this week because of Texas. They wouldn’t be there at this point in the season if TCU had a loss. So to that end I can see them going with a currently relevant yet not tied to either school Texan.

Or hell they could even go this route

[CashMcCoy 3,199]

Post Malone imo

[hornian 5,210]

I’ll do it. I’ll be the guest picker. 

[chemHORN 1,239]

Lead singer of Third Eye Blind just because

[Juicy 725]

its going to be Diplo, He is trying to go country, this is his chance to endear himself to Austin.

Thanks for that. I have such fond memories of the 80's. I'd kill somebody for an old school Pat Magee's pocket t-shirt.

[Bobby Layne 268]

What Minister of Culture? Alright ….

[Bobby Layne 268]

Oops. What about MoC?  Last time he was on GameDay was before he became Professor wasn’t it?

[Kennythetiger 9,374]

Derka would be entertaining as hell if he could stay on track. 

[TexEx15 17,509]

Ravens on bye. Give me

[LTtxfan 49,141]

Pat is a national treasure. He’s no Leach but he is on his heels. Excellent add to CGD.

[ATexanAbroad 627]

Gary Patterson, just to fuck with TCU

[Stunns38 3,460]

[Hmbre97 6,304]

You run the risk of someone disagreeing with him and then he goes off on a 15 minute diatribe about why he's right
