I looked to see if you were new and was going to recommend you not use your email as your username because there are some wild people online and noticed the 2 posts since 2012 and thought it was wild.

I originally thought it was an F but it's pretty clearly 3 lines making it an E

Sound advice, thanks. I look at this forum daily and enjoy it a lot. Used that email long time ago when I didn't know better. It's pretty much defunct now. But, I'll register something new. Gig Em and BTHO Auburn. Whoop

You can change your username on here you do not need to register a new qccount. Don't want to get rid of one almost a decade old.

I was just thinking about doing that. Now I have to dig deep for technological skills. Hah

Read the bottom portion of the report card.
It explains what each letter represents.
E equals failing.
Appears he was not very good at math.

I was a walk on. Only scholarship players got to go to the movie.

Brutal. Way to build ream camaraderie.

A 1994 Wilson football signed by the entire Aggie team and coaching staff.
Some names for example Leeland McElroy had excellent handwriting as did RC Slocum.
Others I can hardly make out the name.

I have a Fran-signed football out back that the dog plays with

That is so weak! Come on Jackie.

A Texas Aggie switchblade made with 2 ice cream sticks,a rubber band and a clothes pina

An autographed football of Dat Nguyen for my 50th birthday. Also many of Dave Smith's
Texas Football when the Aggies were dominating the SWC.

A 1929 bond used to fund a new section of Kyle field. Has all the accompanying papers that were granted at the time of transaction. Has some cool clauses in it like the bond will default if we don't play tu every thanksgiving over the life of the bond. Was issued a few months before the stock market collapse.

The coaches treated the walk-ons very well.
Coach Sherrill set up a JV schedule in 1983 for
walk-ons and scout team scholarship players.
We would play on Thursdays. After practice the trainers would
bring out boxes of oranges and game jerseys.
We played JUCO schools like Blinn and Wharton.
It was a lot of fun.

Most of the bowl tickets for Texas a&m

Missing
44 orange bowl
57 gator
77 sun
81 independence
89 John Hancock
2021 orange bowl

Never seen 22 Dixie classic

Would love to complete the collection one day if anyone can help it would be appreciated
