Going Places
A Texas A&M football recruiting site has a glowing article about Brian Thomas, an Aggie commitment from Pearland High. Rivals.com (subscription req'd) argues that Thomas may be the best Aggie OL recruit out of a stellar class of OL recruits.
As much as I like Aggie football, longtime readers of this blog know where my true allegiance lies. My favorite football team is the team Thomas will open holes for in 2007. Consequently, this is my favorite line in the article:
Yes, Pearland High won its Region in 2006 and played in the state semi-finals game. In order to go farther this year, Thomas and the rest of the Oilers will have to make it to the state championship game. Here's to hoping that Thomas gets his wish. I'll take it a step farther. Let's hope that the hard work Pearland's kids are putting in over the summer results in a "W" over Southlake Carroll in the championship game!

"Last year we won our Region but we want to go farther this year," he said of Pearland High. "We have a lot of talent coming back and we are all working hard this summer."
