With three national championships, more than 80 All-American and nearly 800 victories, the University of Texas has a football history and tradition among the richest in the nation. This book offers a look at a small slice of that history and tradition, with updates on the lives of those who made it possible. Among these are: Johnny Treadwell, whose Now we've got 'em where we want 'em challenge became the emblem of the Darrell Royal teams of the early 1960s; former head coach David McWilliams, whose departure from the coaching ranks may have eventually helped to save his life; Duke Carlisle, the star of three crucial showdowns in a national championship season, now enjoying life in the oil business in Mississippi; Julius Whittier, UT's first black football letterman, who finished with two degrees and has been a successful Dallas attorney for 20 years: Ben Tompkins, who played baseball with Satchel Paige, spent 20 years as an NFL game official, and is still practicing law at 75; T Jones enshrined in the Hall of Honor at both UT and Texas Tech; Ben Procter, who held a UT receiving record for 40 years still lives in house he bought from Lyndon Johnson's sister, and is finishing up the second volume of a biography of William Randolph Hearst; Alan Lowry, who answers the gnawing question about whether he stepped out of bounds on the run that beat Alabama in the Cotton Bowl; James Saxton, the swift All-American who survived a near-fatal illness; Roosevelt Leaks, who after a lengthy NFL career still spends time on the family farm where he grew up; the Campbell twins, who as the sons of defensive coordinator Iron Mike Campbell, willed themselves into becoming starters on a nationalchampionship team; Randy Peschel, the man who caught Right 53 Veer Pass; James Street, the man who threw it; and former Outland winner Scott Appleton, who destroyed his life with alcohol and then rebuilt it, becoming a minister who touched countless lives before his death.

The game may be the same in other states, but football seems to mean more in Texas. Beyond any doubt, one school in the Lone Star State has the richest football history and the most glorious tradition - the University of Texas. More than 800 victories, four national championships (1963, 1969, 1970, and 2005), and two Heisman Trophy winners (Earl Campbell and Ricky Williams) indicate just what a pigskin powerhouse the Longhorns are. Richard Pennington conducted exhaustive research in writing Texas Longhorns Football History A to Z. This book, which is sure to delight orangebloods in Texas and beyond, traces the development of the school's football program from 1893 through 2006. With a deft hand, Pennington recounts the highs and lows the Horns have experienced in those years. He writes about the major figures in UT football history - Clyde Littlefield, Dana X. Bible, Bobby Layne, Darrell Royal, DeLoss Dodds, Vince Young, and others - but he also shines a light on obscure but interesting people. A prime example is Marion Ford, one of UT's first black undergraduate students. Ford volunteered to join a woeful (1-9) team in 1956 but was politely turned down. Fourteen years would pass before Texas integrated its football program. As the title indicates, Texas Longhorns Football History A to Z is full of facts and figures, anecdotes and trivia, all-decade teams and archival information. Respectful of all but beholden to none, Pennington has written a book that engages hard-core fans as well as those wondering where football legitimately fits in any institution of higher learning. That issue certainly pertains at the University of Texas, which has 450,000 living alumni, an athletic budget topping $100 million, and a newly expanded stadium that seats 90,000-plus.
