I'm not following how that addresses the issue at hand? And what happens when another Texas player wins the Heisman, will they just keep adding names to the field? James Brown 50 yard line? Fizzy Whittaker left hashmark?

This is my thinking as well. If you watch LHN postgame show immediately after the game they have cameras panning the players as the Eyes are being played, a lot lift their Horns, some just stand there and talk about something that happened in the game, but very few sing the Eyes. Itโll be more of that.ย The interesting thing will be to watch how the white players react to the Eyes. Will white or black players sing and if they do will there be discontent because of it.ย Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red90fly Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Quinn Ewers looks like he'll be the highest rated QB since Trevor Lawrence and #1 overall recruit in the 22' class.ย Supposedly he and his dad are big Texas fans.ย I could see Texas landing him with a big year.ย If not, he'll head to OU, tOSU, or somewhere like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
