Curtis was not the highest draft pick in UT history. He was fourth round. Highest DP was Dan Williams, first round 11th pick.

It's good to get alums involved with the football programs - especially alums from successful teams and ones that have played in the NFL. It's good for them to show their pride to the current players, and to the fans.

Yup. Got Media Guide? I guess now I understand the half hour delay in releasing the names. They should have taken a little more time.
I kinda like the Old School / New School idea.
