top 5 longhorns ever

[slorch]

Earl Campbell- made me want to go UT( when I was 7, I later grew out of it)
Roger Clemens- best pitcher in 20 years and don't give that weasly Maddox crap either, bet he could have been a TE or LB
Tommy Nobis- just because the old guys all say he was a bad-$$
Jerry Gray- because he's from Lubbock
Vince Young-Put the umph behind all of that Burnt Orange swagger

if this was in the baseball thread I would debate the whole Maddux/Clemens ordeal. However Greg Maddux is not far behind Roger Clemens and as far as post season pitchers go, I would take Maddux over Clemens any day of the week.

As far as pro carrers go he doesnt measure up well, however while in college, Brooks Keischnek(sp) was as good a college baseball player that I have see.

I know the great majority of you will beat me up for this but, I have to put it. Cat Osterman has to be somewhere on this list. I know softball doesn't have the power of the other sports out in the big world but she is unbelievable. My other four would be:

Vince - he's at the TOP now!!
Earl
Roger
Ricky - his drug problems take the shine off but, from what I remember in the late 70's, Jester Center was always in a haze of green smoke so who am I to judge:)

and James Street - had to add him as an honorable mention because he was FUN to watch.
