It appears foul play was not involved.

His biggest supporter in Miami (Saban) is gone but he wants to go back.

Titans draft 19th, Texas 8th, and Cowboys 23rd.

The moron’s personal vendetta against Young continues.

Just a reminder that the US Army All-American Bowl will be on NBC today at noon. The game takes place in San Antonio at the Alamodome and features some of the best high school football players in the country.

This will be most Longhorn fans first opportunity to watch any of the 2007 football commits in action. Bevo Sports will have some thoughts on the game and possibly some video later this weekend. There will be 13 Texans on the West squad and the Longhorns have six commits and a few targets playing in the game. Here’s the guys to keep an eye on during the game:

The Associated Press announced today that Vince Young has received the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year award in a land-slide victory. [tag]Vince Young[/tag] received 23 out of 50 possible votes, with the next closest being 9 for Marques Colston and Maurice Drew. And guess who rounded out the vote at the bottom? That’s right, Reggie Bush.

Overall I think you have to be impressed with the quick transition VY is making in the pros. Many people doubted him, but Texas fans have known what everyone else is starting to learn about him. He is just a winner, plain and simple. It doesn’t matter what level is playing on, he will get the job done.

So a big congrats to VY from Bevo Sports and we look forward to more good things to come.

Texas knocked off UT – Arlington tonight in Austin by 32 points in a game that was still close at halftime. It was an eight point game at the half, but the Horns offense kicked in and they were able to pull away and win by a final score of Texas 84, UTA 52.

[tag]Kevin Durant[/tag] had another great night as he chipped in his usual 21 points and 15 rebounds. The kid is just amazingly solid and consistent, he’s averaging a double-double so far in his freshman season. If he continue this kind of production through Big 12 conference play he’ll be getting freshman POY honors and some All-American mentions as well. [tag]AJ Abrams[/tag] knocked down three more 3-pointers and [tag]DJ Augustin[/tag] continued his great work at the point. Those three players can lead this team a long way with just a little help on defense and the boards from the interior guys.

Great to see big [tag]Dexter Pittman[/tag]’s line for the night: 10 minutes, 4 rebounds, and 9 points. The kid is only going to get better this season and could be a force next year.

The Longhorns begin conference play Saturday at 3pm against Colorado.
