Vince Young, Superman, and Texas Champion

The Texas loss at home to Ohio State today shows how much they miss their quarterback Vince Young, who graduated last year. Sure, Coach Brown has made Texas a consistently good program. But not great. It was Young who willed the Texas win over Michigan 2 years ago and last year's wins in Columbus against OSU and the BCS championship over USC. He should have won the Heisman. He should've been drafted #1 into the NFL. OSU, Michigan, and USC have programs that are well-oiled machines, regularly producing good teams that play well. Texas had a superman and they won against these machines. In 40 years of watching college football, I have never seen one player so important to a team. Tonight just proves it.
