Burton confesses today, more than three decades later, he wanted to become one of those players recruited. As a 5-1 high school freshman at Pasadena Dobie, he instead focused on tennis, eventually earning a scholarship to Schreiner University in Kerrville.
But he never lost his fascination with college football recruiting.
After transferring to Texas, he volunteered for a job, any job, with Longhorns coach David McWilliams, who sent him to the video department.
One of Burton's duties was to break down films of potential recruits.
"I remember in particular Zach Thomas from Pampa," Burton said. "Everyone said he was too small and too slow. All I saw was that he was in on every tackle."

As the five star rankings were released yesterday and the Top247 will be released later today, I thought I might as well chime in on them.
While some feel like I have a heavy hand in the rankings, I actually don't. To quote from the play Hamilton, I'm not "in the room where it happens" and that's by my choice. I stepped down from that role in recruiting long ago. However, I still have opinions on recruits.

So, this movie was about tu recruit rank inflation?
Quote:
"When I was at Texas, we had guys who weren't even being recruited and when they committed to us, suddenly they were five stars. That happened 100 percent," he said. "What I'm saying is, it's not about the ranking, it's about who's recruiting you. That, in my opinion, is a huge indictment on the ranking system."
