Run Ricky Run
Hoss. Ricky just crossed 10,000 yards as an NFL running back becoming just the 26th player to do it. I just added him to the National Football League 10,000 yard rushers page on Wikipedia. Let this thread be our compendium of well wishes and memories. I'll start with his tackle of a Nebraska...
Vince Ricky: The Fall of the Sure Thing
The recent signings of a pair of all-time Longhorns to backup roles with NFL teams came with a strong sense of what might have been for two guys firmly etched on the Mt. Rushmore of Texas football. Less than two weeks after Vince Young closed a deal to be Mike Vick's backup in Philadelphia, Ricky...
Longhorn Network Programming Notes
We've got Ricky Williams and Rick Barnes up in Chicago at the repetitive National Cable and Telecommunications Association Cable Show helping get distribution for the network which is set to launch on Friday, August 26. While the complete schedule of programs will show up later this summer, the...

Five Years In The Desert: Texas Longhorn Running Back Recruiting
For some of our backs, that title could be Five Years In The Dessert. Some running backs will play on Sundays. Some play on sundaes. The AAS has a capable rundown of our RB recruiting over the past half decade and it provides some useful context for how we got to a ball-toting roster of 6s when...
Run Ricky Run
There are three Longhorns I hold above all others in the Sailor Ripley Texas Longhorns pantheon. TJ Ford, Vince Young and Ricky Williams. These are guys who I loved enough at UT to actively care about their trials and tribulations "at the next level". I cared enough about these guys that I would...
Big 12 Legacy
Football: Vasherized was there to record the developments from the open practice, Geoff Ketchum is opposing the new development on the grounds that it gives up too much of what worked the last 2 years. I'm feeling better from hearing both opinions. Sure the 3-step passing game of Colt's prime was...
Open thread: Vince vs Ricky
The cool kids in the Austin area get to see this game instead of, oh I don't know, the Texans vs Rams. But don't fear. Our Texans correspondent CloseToJumping will be providing us with live updates. In the meantime you can enjoy watching the two best players to come out of Texas since Earl...
Texas Longhorns Heisman Notes
If Alabama's Mark Ingram wins the Heisman this Saturday, he will be the first from that tradition-rich program to take home the hardware. Texas of course has two Heismans in the vault, and Colt McCoy will be on stage Saturday as one of the finalists. Here is a look at some Longhorn notables who...
Run, Ricky, Run
In case you missed the NFL Network game last night, Ricky Williams had a terrific performance in leading the Miami Dolphins over the Carolina Panthers with three TD's including this game clinching 46 yarder. All and all, not a bad night for little Earl. 15 carries for 121 yards. Two rushing TD's...
