Bump cause this is still a real thing that actually happened even if the 12th man foundation has deleted all the linked evidence.

Not true, they frequently talk and read lips.

Although for some reason I thought they were the Deaf, Dumb, and Blind Institute

Texas School for the Deaf is for real!

We played them when I was in the tenth grade - first team could do nothing against them - coach pulled the first team, put in the second stringers who managed to score once for the win .

I have a lot of respect for them and so should you.

Believe one of their stars in high school went to Tech and started. Austin High played them in the 40s.

Because of the obvious mismatch the refs let them use hand signals while the Ags couldn't. That was the first use of hand signals in a game. Also they got to wear Nike gear and the Ags had to wear Adidas.

You're thinking of the pinball team we lost to.

It wasn't pinball. It was basketball. Watkins was the coach.

This year, we get a crack at wiping the 0 out of the win column vs UT.

They also couldn't hear the whistles.

On a football field, maybe not, but in a gym, they can feel the vibrations or get some sensation.
