Texas has fans all over the country, but a small fraction of them are actual alum. There are too many ex-students for me to care about to waste my time with unaffiliated fans.

2000-2004 Business managment degree
I stick with my Team Win or Lose.
Yes there are a lot of Fan base out there who only pick the winning team however I'm not one of them. I sat through the David Mc'williams Era not to mention the John Mackovic Era. I never even got to say out of my 4 years attending school there not one year did we Beat OU since there was a 5 year drought. I Ran Track down there so don't put me in the same catagory as Band wagon or tshirt Fans. I look down at my Finger and Wear my "T" Ring proudly everyday why ? I graduated from one of the finest divison 1 schools in the country not to mention one of the top if not the TOP ( aTm is another ) with in our state. I am proud to say im an Alumni of The University and look more at it from the education it gave me rather than the Wins a Football Team gives.


" I am alumni, I am a Longhorn, and I can accept anyone with a true love for the Longhorns and our traditions a fan......
(I guess thats why when someone thinks of THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS, I really don't need to explain who I am talking about. I AM TEXAS) "

Couldnt have said it any better.
