At this point, what number of brushes with the law would be considerd a "good" finish to their impressive season thus far?

Maybe Mack Brown should put the Austin Police Department on retainer so when they are devising the weekly gameplan they can check with them and ask, "Will we have him this week?"

This is very frustrating. Stupid kids doing stupid things.

But don't forget, they were not cheating in the 80s. Before this latest bad news they've been a clean program for decades.

Are the UT jersey numbers the same as their booking number?

It must be very confusing for Mack Brown to keep the team jersey numbers separate from their convict numbers.

Not signalling a turn. Hmmmm. It seems those 'Horns a few years ago were pulled over on I-45 near Magnolia for the same thing.

Cop smelled pot, found some, I believe.

Lawyers got 'em off because, lo and behold, apparently, you're not required to signal when exiting an interstate. :lol: Who knew?

At least the cops vs inmates game will be competitive this year.

Le sigh.

Yep, the movie sequel for The Longest Yard can be filmed at the UT extension campus in Huntsville.

Are UT alumni and faculty storming Memorial Stadium yet to demand that UT drop college football. Better yet does ANYBODY really care? Not a single empty seat in the stadium for years. Yawn. UT is not taking any players that couldn't get into any football program in Texas except for Rice. Everybody and their brother offered all of these kids. Obviously, going to school in Austin is a "Trip".

He was academic All State and was on the Honor Roll both years at UT. SMU would have taken him I'm sure. My point is that SMU is taking the same players that UT is. Yes they should be punished but don't sit here an act that UT is recruiting a bunch of bad apples from a different pool of players. We've got enough drug problems at SMU even among the general student population to credibly argue differently.

I'm sure Coach Royal gave Coach Brown his rolodex with the Sheriff's home phone number. As long as the Sheriff get them there for practice, Coach doesn't care.
