Re: Burger wars, re-visited

I agree with smudad. Kinkaid's in Fort Worth has been the best burger in the Metroplex for 50 years.

Re: Life insurance for Richard Bartel

Someone asked last week who Chad Meachum was and I replied in an earlier post, including a statement that the coaches expected him to report in the fall at 285 lbs. He was in Houston this weekend and is already up to 292. It may be that by the season opener Chad will make it to that magical 300 ...

Re: Life insurance for Richard Bartel

Chad Meachum is a redshirt freshman who has the height and weight (6-4, 275+ lbs), quick feet and sound technique to see some playing time next fall. As a high school senior, he was first team All-District in District 21-5A (which includes Eisenhower, Nimintz and Aldine) and won the Landrum Award as ...

Re: Joe Sturdivant

As a sweetener to get this kid in a Mustangs uniform, I'll throw in a gift wrapped baseball card of his grandfather in Yankee pinstripes bought when I was about 8 or 9. I'll keep the Whitey Ford, though.

Re: Starting RB Next Season

In response to the question about Matt Young's speed, he is not a burner (4.43) but is very quick in pads and seems to see the field well. As to being overlooked, to some extent he was, but he had scholoarship offers to BYU, Air Force and (I think) La. Tech, plus invited walk-on spots at Oklahoma, A ...

Scholarships for non-scholarship players?

Any word on whether Bennett will reward any returning non-scholarship players (including red-shirt freshmen) with available scholarships?

Other than watching a practice in September and one televised game, everything I know about the kicking game comes from the media and this site. What I do know is that sitting the bench as frosh redshirt running back is a kid (Matt Young) who kicked a 53 yard field goal as freshman at Memorial High ...

Re: Walk-ons
