I'm not trying to argue with anyone. I know what UT did to Harper H.S.

Of course, sir Red, did not take your post as argumentative. Maybe this article explains why UT went after Harper High and not others:

It has everything to do with the logo. If what the Nevada story holds true about the t-shirt w/logo the University of Texas will pursue legal recourse against that organization. I would be willing to bet that WT White's logo is different than UT's logo.

the Nevada story is true, they are called the Legacy Longhorns, and their Logo is a block L with a longhorn in front....and its been quite a while since I lived near WT White but it was on Royal Lane just down the road from the original Dallas Cowboys practice facility, so I have no idea what they are using for their logo nowadays, but former Heisman trophy winner  Tim Brown graduated from there when I lived in Dallas

my mistake I thought he went to WTWhite....my time in the DFW area was so much fun because the powers at the time were Lake Highlands, Plano, and of course the team I hated the most Highland Park...

The Kansas school mentioned in that article is the one I mentioned earlier. Gardner-Edgerton that is southwest of KC. Their colors are Blue and White but their logo was identical to the Horns.

Here's an article on the G-E logo:

IT was able to confirm that WR Brenen Thompson won't be participating in spring ball as he focuses on track season.

does anyone know Bijan's 40 yd dash time....some yahoo on FB tried to tell me he will run 4.5 at the combine, I guessed he will run sub 4.4 maybe even 4.35

Seems like Bijan was fast but not a burner. He would not necessarily pull away from DB's if he was on the sideline and they were even. I don't know his 40 time.

[BruiseLee]

My guess would be in the 4.4 to 4.5 range

[Sunkist]

He looked 4.6ish to me in straight line speed while at Texas.   I think he will run a low 4.5 at the combine given NFL’s obsession with speed and his focusing on building speed just for the combine stats.

No way he's in the 4.3s. That's the fastest of the fast and that isn't Bijan. He will do himself well if he is sub 4.50. Big if there. But that is a great time for a 225lb guy.

Interesting that the fastest guy at the combine will likely be Devon Achane from aggy. Dominant track star that I wish we would've recruited harder.

this was from Alabama Will Anderson on Bijan

247 reporting Coach Choice recently turned down a position with the LA Rams, and he'll be getting a nice pay bump because of it.

Barring a head coach change, I could see Choice sticking around for a long time.

Seems like he isn't too keen on taking a NFL gig if he just turned down LA.

Doesn't seem like a guy looking for a OC gig. 

So, why coach RBs anywhere else at the college level other than Texas?

I hope you’re right.

if he wants to be a HC, OC is typically the next step.
