Longhorn players come out with list of demands...including no more "Eyes of Texas"

I know YTB and he’s given his life to make things better for every athlete who steps on a field.
I think that most of us especially those who know the history of UT know that it’s one of the richest schools in the nation. It got that way because it’s former players and students have given hundreds of millions of dollars in money and land to the university to promote higher learning and sportsmanship. If you walk around the campus you see names on every building and athletic venue because those people have hundreds of millions to the school. They did this because they loved the university and what it stands for in every field.
No protest is going to change the fundamental idea for what the university was built on.
I think these young men have the right to protest all they want. I also think it’s UT”s right to show them the door.

Truth. I totally respect this. If people don't like it, they are welcome to leave.

Ah yes, money. To Benjamin (lots and lots of 'em) be the glory!

Dotcom, I'm sure we'd like one another if we ever met. My biggest issue Im having now, is how this legit movement has been hijacked by those committing felony's such as arson, assaults and looting. I fear unless this madness (other than peaceful protest) don't end, it will over shadow the paramount recent reasoning all this started, when Mr. Floyd was murdered.

Innocent folks (store owners) life's matter too. And, they're way of providing for their family should not be destroyed in the process. The ears of the nation are listening. Eye's wide open. Let's hope those not peacefully protesting, don't derail the movement.

I hear you, and I agree 100% with what you just said!

Inspiring video I happened to see retweeted by Tra Fluellen, a former Buckeye who is now a student-athlete at Houston Baptist University.
