I do not know if any of this is true as I did not follow Texas sports until '93. Just stating what I have heard.
The amount of crap you get out of a longhorn is incredible.

While we're on the subject, I can't remember seeing a longhorn with only one horn, yet you don't call them longhorns unless you are talking in the plural. As in, "there is a longhorn", yet both horns are long. I never hear, "there is a longhorns". Any idea on that ATXCoach?
