I will start it off I will put a name down then you will write something about this person maybe a game or a big play or something they defines their career. It can be past or present Mean Green players. After you write something down then put another player's name down. Here we go :

I guess I will start it off, Johnny Quinn :

Hardest worker i have ever seen, has earned everything he has gotten. Made spectacular catch after catch, great blocker who would have probably set more records if he played in a more pass friendly offense. Without a doubt the hardest working player I have ever seen though.

One of my all time favorites Don McGee is next :

Great trash talker and big timer personality for the Mean Green.

Two memorable plays:

1) Interception in NO Bowl -- pump faked a pass while returning the ball.

2) Intercepted a ball in the endzone that secured our win against NMSU at Fouts -- leading to a NO Bowl bid.

Next: Michael Pruitt.

he made an incredible leaping catch on 4th down and long at Stephen F. Austin.....we later kicked a field goal to tie the game 33-33 and won the Southland and a 1-AA playoff berth....this was in 1994....that was a great game

Hut Allred (great football name)

Hard nosed runner that was not afraid to get tough yards. Could push the defense a yard if he needed to.

      SB at Charlotte (5/3-5/24)

      The bats have definitely been the biggest disappointment the past two years. The run support simply hasn't been there enough. Now, I'm still optimistic for the tournament. Last year we won three straight to make it to the title game. But that double bye would have been nice especially if we only have two reliable pitchers right now.

      Why the NCAA model is dying and will be replaced

      You can rebuild a college basketball rotation to contend at a high level in one year. That is just 8-9 players. And if you get lucky with 2-3 absolute monsters, you can make a run in any given season. Of course, then those 2-3 monsters will get poached by deeper pockets and you will have to start all over again. But still, it is possible. But we can’t rebuild a college football two-deep in one year. That’s almost 50 players that we need to compete at a high level. And as has been demonstrated, any time we get football players who have any kind of success in the NIL era, they are gone quicker than you can say “Chandler Rogers”. Another reason it is easier for us to compete in the NIL era in basketball is because that sport is dominated by guards. There are LOTS of talented guards available in college basketball and some of the very best can fall through the cracks and land with us for atleast a season. And while many people would say that college football is dominated by quarterbacks (and that position is VERY important)… what really separates the elite college football programs from everyone else are the defensive linemen. The supply of 18-24 year-old humans who weigh 300 pounds with the strength to take on multiple blockers while also having the speed to run down a quarterback is no where near the demand. And these defensive linemen usually take a while to develop. But anytime a defensive linemen shows a hint of promise, he gets funneled to the highest bidder and that won’t be us. Which means we will never be able to compete with the SEC or Big 10 in football.
