quote:how did you get this from what I said? what I said was, while other universities grew and became larger public universities, ours didn't. other schools had much more resources than we did and could use those to their advantage when there were no limits on scholarships offered or limits to how many people you could have on a team. back when Darryl royal was coaching, texas would have over 100 people on their team and we would have like 50
is due to the war?

Lulz. Another 20-something aggie who believes everything his aggie grandpappy tells him.
The group-think in College Station is laughable.

the myth back then was that Darrell Royal recruited who he wanted and then added more just so they couldn't play for somebody else. And it was a myth. The SWC had a limit of 115 football players on scholarship at any time. Texas wasn't loading up on monster numbers compared to everybody else.
After the 1967 season, Texas signed 40 recruits. A&M had 49, SMU 47, Texas Tech 44, TCU 43, Rice 38 and Baylor 37.
