He ended up tweeting former Texas running back Malcolm Brown. So the goof wasn't as bad as not knowing who his quarterback is, but it's still pretty funny. Brown kind of figured some folks would goof up (just not the coach) and tweeted this out earlier in the day Thursday:
Let's see how many calls, text and tweets I get tonight when my bro @MalcomBrown_90 get drafted 😂😂

Even he couldn't believe the Strong got it wrong.

As expected, he heard all about getting "drafted:"
Phone and Twitter steady blowin up 😂

Strong realized his error, deleted the tweet (but nothing is ever truly gone online), and got it right the second time around:
@MalcomBrown_90 Congrats Big Mal! Proud of you!

Longhorns are stuck with this guy at least 2 more years. Hope it's 3-4!
ReplyDeleteWashington was a majestic 6'2" tall. Adjusting for inflation, that's like nine feet today. Nine feet of stoic elegance demanding respect. Adams was about 5'7" and portly, with a round Charlie Brown oath head.
