Tulsa World columnist John Klein pays tribute to Fenimore here, quoting former Chicago Bears coach Neill Armstrong, a Fenimore teammate.

  • Sherman addresses hopeful, realistic A&M group Texas College Blog | Dallas Morning News As offseason football gatherings go, the coach's night sponsored by the Dallas A&M; Club was pretty impressive. More than 1,100 attended the event at Gilley's on Friday night, to hear head coach Mike Sherman discuss where his team stands going into his third season in College Station. A few quick observations with more coming closer to the season. 1. You've got to like Sherman. For all his NFL experience, he was genuine, even self-deprecating.

  • Gill changes culture at Kansas, creates 'positive' environment Texas College Blog | Dallas Morning News Last December, Brad Thorson logged on to his Facebook page and discovered a message in his inbox. A player from the University of Buffalo, Dane Robinson, had written it, explaining that Turner Gill had told the team that he was leaving to become the head coach at Kansas.

"I have never heard anybody talk about their coach like that," said Thorson, a Jayhawks senior offensive lineman. "And it felt right. It felt ...
  • A&M president: Big 12 should honor deal Texas College Blog | Dallas Morning News When it seemed the Big 12 was about to implode this summer, Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State and Colorado made a last-ditch effort to keep Texas, Texas A&M; and Oklahoma by guaranteeing those schools at least $20 million a year in conference revenue, beginning in 2012-13. The idea was to take money out of the equation as a consideration in conference membership. Big 12 Commissioner Dan Beebe said Tuesday that Texas and Oklahoma have indicated they don't anticipate needing any contributions. But Texas A&M; had not made that concession, Beebe said.
