Wes Welker was a Red Raider? Huh, sure enough he was. And I thought I knew it all. ;) I’m keeping an eye on the Alamo Bowl for all those interested though. That and I’m not in a Bryant Gumbel mood right now. Haven’t been since about 1989.
Oh boy, Mike Goodson’s 2nd TD in less than 30 seconds. 14-0 Texas Aggies.
Oh, yeah...he was a Red Raider! He originally tried to walk on with OU and/or OSU (he is from Oklahoma), and then some other schools, and no one would even let him walk on due to his size. What I’ve heard is that Tech had a scholarship freed up by a player who backed out at the last minute, so Leach invited Welker to walk on, and the rest is history!
