LL, went to UH just as you were leaving. 1976 to 1980. I was there when we won the SWC 3 out of 4 years. I was at the game in Austin when we beat the Longhorns 30-0. I also remember the game you were referring to where Joe Montana led Notre Dame against us in the Ice Bowl/Cotton Bowl. What a bitter defeat. I really miss the SWC. Phi Slamma Jamma came along 82-84 and will always be remembered by not just you and I but by sports fans everywhere.

Glad to hear Tony Levine is doing well. At the time I did not like him as a head coach but the more I look back he really was not as bad as I thought he was. Art Briles, Kevin Sumlin, and Tom Herman built such high expectations especially on offense that when Levine arrived and stumbled he was quickly dismissed. A coach I have my eye on and I hope he becomes our next coach is the HC at Sam Houston State. Congrats to them for winning their first championship since 1964.

In regards to casino gambling in Texas it does not appear likely we will have any luck bringing it to Texas any time some. I believe it was Dan Patrick or one of the other state level political underlings that went on record the other day and said we would never have casino gambling in Texas. It would be convenient for Texas gamblers and bring in revenue for the state to help take the pressure off higher sales taxes and property taxes and forestall the possibility of a state income tax any time in the near future.
We shared some campus time together. I completed my mid-management and superintendent's certifications in 1979. That Texas was an awesome game. We sat in the upper deck but was drenched in beer by the not so gracious Texas fans behind us. Then when we left, my wife's new car with UH decals was keyed with UT on the side. Loyal fans, lousy losers. An example of a program with the best resources in the nation with the least to show for its money.

I would love to have the Sam Houston head coach. Would be great for the program..

Uncle Dan has mentioned basically hell will freeze over before he allows Texas to get gambling. Not only is sinful, but he believes most people don't have the sense to not spend their in such endeavors so, He and his friends much make a decision for us since we're not capable of making individual decisions.
