Texas A&M Football
Aggie Flashback with former offensive lineman Michael Mahan
Key quotes from Michael Mahan interview
"I was born and raised to play at A&M. I was going to games since I was old enough to walk. It was a no-brainer for me."
"I was 19 at the time of Bonfire, so I don't know if I really grasped it. I remember where I was and going to help recovery."
"I think winning the Bonfire game was important for the families involved, the school, and the team. Everybody played out of their minds."
"We were doing summer workouts. My heart rate was extremely high, and 15 minutes after the workout it was still very high."
"I was born with an extra chamber in my heart that would get my heart rate over 300 beats a minute."
"I had surgery and was able to go back to two a days 36 hours later."
"A year later, I had my second surgery and missed the Texas game. That was tough."
"My full retirement was after my junior season. Four surgeries in 16 months was more than I could take."
"Coach Sumlin is a laid back guy. A couple years ago, when he got hired I said he was the right guy."
"It's awesome. It's about time. Everyone said to bring the Wrecking Crew back, but watching this offense is just as fun."
