I watched Hayden Fry quarterback the Odessa High School Bronchos to the state championship in 1946 (that was one of the best high school teams ever assembled - and it was assembled; rumor is that various oil companies transferred workers who had good football playing sons to Odessa in order to "manufacture" such a team; fourteen seniors on the team became starters on various college teams the next year).
Our son is currently in Naval nuclear school - hope he gets to serve on the Texas! He is a chemical engineering graduate of Texas A&M. I'm sure he and others would like to see an all Texas crew on that sub! (Probably they'd really prefer an All-Aggie crew - I can hear the Aggie jokes already starting if such were the case.)
