No disagreement slide.Â
I just think when an 18 year old kid from Belton, just up the road from Austin, sees the size of the UT stadium, sees the energy on that campus, sees how serious those guys take football and the revenue it gets, sees the sheer quantity of attractive undergrads, etc., I don't think it is all that surprising that someone would make that call, even if it doesn't make academic or football sense.
Hah, I thought me bringing up a legal pad and putting the pluses and minuses of each school that my kids were looking at would be very persuasive to them, but not a chance. These kids go on feel and gut instinct.
This guy played with David Ash, who will quarterback for Texas. That seems like a pretty big draw.
