I wonder what the quarterback situation will look like in 2020. I’m not sold on Clayton Tune yet.

A post was split to a new topic: OT Justin Murphy from UCLA transfers to Houston

So how many players do we have and how many spots do we have left?

Nobody is really mentioning the Tech guard who coming in, https://twitter.com/GioPancotti/status/1135322748870373376
I expect him to compete for starting guard spot.

Its hard for me to fathom a guy playing football and graduating – cum laude, no less – in 3 years. It only took me 15 years, although only 6 1/2 of actually going to school. I had 4 years in the navy and sever year of working before finishing up at night school at UH.

Red,
Night school at UH helped many of us veterans get our degrees. It was not easy; I think UH does Engineering night school well .
Go Coogs… beat okie !

Thank you for your service! I’m amazed by guys like you. Way to keep going until you had that degree!

Indeed it did; and not only that - the university tried to help veterans in other ways too. Students were allowed to take tests in some of the easier subjects, and if they passed the test, they were given credit for that subject.

I came out of the Air Force in the fall of 1946 (well, it was really the Army Air Force then; the Air Force was created as a separate unit later). Too late to start school until the Spring of 1947. With the help of the university on some of those easier subjects, and a lot of very hard work by me, I was able to get my degree, with a major in Accounting, by June of 1949 - just 2-1/2 years!

Pat, I was born in January '47, so you got out of the Army Air Corp a few months before I was born. You may not look older than dirt – but you are. At a mere 72, you make me feel like a whipper snapper. :grin:
