All he did was post a t-shirt with a direct quote from Strong, but a lot of fans and players took serious offense to it and let Mack know.

Many fans took offense to it and replied to Mack with some very NSFW comments. Lots of players replied as well and tried to downplay Mack's talent. Mack had the perfect reply for them:
Clearly I had the option to be a longhorn I just chose different. Your only at Texas because we never offered you #NuffSaid @charless_94

Come one guys! Don't y''all remember hanging out with him when he visited Austin? Don't you remember all the tweets you sent his way trying to get him to come to Austin? One guy clearly didn't

Most of the players took offense to Mack's tweet even though all he did was repeat what their own head coach had said about the team. Some of the responses were funny:
Lol Daylon should've never posted that one...time 4 retaliation 😌

Let him talk all he want to and tell his sorry lame coach to play us and get beat by the best team in Texas and let them know we run things

The only defense they could present to Mack's tweet of Strong's own comment was how A&M hasn't won anything (specifically a national title) and how great Texas was because they won one over a decade ago. Many also tweeted the record between the two teams in the rivalry. So basically because the Longhorns were a great team back in 2005 they are still awesome now even though they had a losing record last season.
What's really funny about the whole mess is that most of the guys tweeting about how great Texas was have yet to play for the Longhorns yet or are not even on campus. The only one that tweeted anything sensible was Malik Jefferson.
Why can't we be friends ... (Sigh)
