    My oldest son is a TX State Trooper working in Travis County. We were talking on the phone while he was on his way home from work this morning when he put me on hold. He stopped to give a homeless man a blanket in 30 degree weather. That’s who Texas is and that’s who MY son is!

    At 3:12 today, @landrygilpin and I took this picture in front of his retired #12 jersey. At 3:17, he got in his car and left for college football and higher education...As my youngest son, I would love for him to never have left home, but it’s time...Be great, son. I love you.

    Update on our QB Ricky Reyna: I just left the hospital and Ricky will spend the night there and have surgery early tomorrow morning. He broke both the bones in his lower left leg tonight midway through the 1st quarter. My heart is sad for him...He is SUCH a good boy.
