Gets me riled up on a Tuesday evening in July, sitting here thinking about fall camp starting and the North Carolina game coming up? It is this ESPN list they spent months putting together, the best players ever by jersey number. I saw they had to include our link, our TCU page, and I guarantee you they skimmed right past us like we were some afterthought. They probably put a Texas or Oklahoma guy at half the slots and called it a day. It reminds me of the old Southwest Conference days when we would line up against the big boys and nobody gave us the time of day until we proved it on the field. I remember watching the 1984 team in the Bluebonnet Bowl, nobody knew who we were and we went out there and earned it. Now they want to rank the best by jersey number and I would bet my bottom dollar they forgot about Sammy Baugh wearing number 33 and taking us to the 1938 national championship, the first one we ever won. You think any of those ESPN writers know about the 1998 team that went to the Sun Bowl and beat USC with our quarterback running the option all over the field? They do not. They look at the big names and the big brands and throw us a bone with a team page link and think that is enough. But I will tell you what, I would rather have the history we built the old way, with players who stayed four years and bled purple, than any fancy list ESPN cooks up to sell clicks. This program has forgotten more football than half those blue blood programs ever knew.
