Source confirms Jason Witten was not at Cowboys voluntary workout today: "When I pulled in the parking lot and saw his spot empty, I said, it's over."....it's probably the 1st time in his 15+ year career, he's been absent.

Texas Tech replaced 71% of its scoring from Elite 8 team & is in 1st place: 12-4 (24-5), 11th in nation...not only is Chris Beard Big 12 Coach of Year, he also should be considered for national coach of year (Tech won 6 NCAA tourney games in 56 years prior to 3 wins last yr)
With all due respect to Adrian Beltre, there is one Ranger who wore
#29
just as well. Can we please honor Rusty Greer at same time we honor Adrian Beltre?
Rangers career stats:
Beltre: 1098g, 304 BA, 865 OPS, 3 division titles
Greer: 1027g, 305 BA, 865 OPS, 3 division titles
Big 12 has a lot of explaining to do on the illegal snap call in the Baylor/Texas Tech game. When a call like that is made in OT, it has to be reviewed by the replay booth. You have to get that call right.
So Matt Wells had some thoughts on the illegal snap that took away a fumble recovery in the first OT, said he didn't get much of an explanation from the officials.
When asked if he thought it wasn't an illegal snap, he said "Absolutely, I just watched the replay on two phones."

National media getting a chance today to see the investment Texas Tech has made in its basketball program. $32.2m Womble Center, which opened last May, is 2nd to none!
#WreckEm
Even though Joey McGuire wasn’t the “head coach” last night, don’t underestimate the impact he had on Texas Tech’s approach to that game last night.
Tech is going to play a physical brand of football, like Baylor does…that should be exciting for Red Raider fans.
Baylor averaged 24 points and 422 total yards per game vs Big 12 opponents this season.
Baylor had 45 points and 662 total yards vs SEC opponent tonight.
Jaw dropping moment at Cowboys Camp today: 6-foot tall CB Chido Awuzie (with helmet on) leaping and hitting his head on the crossbar of the goalpost....that’s a 48 inch vertical (running start).

@Rangers
History—May 22, 1997—Rangers beat Oakland, 10-7, & Mark Holtz exclaimed, “Hello, Win Column” for the final time. Diagnosed with leukemia, he passed away 3 months later at age 51. Longtime Rangers fans think of Holtzie every time “It’s Baseball Time in Texas”
One of the best hires
@CoachVenables
has made at OU: Former Dallas Cowboy Ryan Young is
@OU_Football
Senior Director of The SOUL Mission…24 players in Miami this week on a SOUL mission service trip…Young & Venables go way back to their days at K-State 24+ years ago.
as 9th pick in MLB Draft, Kyler Murray's "pick value" is $4.76m...if he signs & plays football for OU, he would be 3rd highest paid in Big 12 behind Tom Herman ($5.5m) and Gary Patterson ($5.1m), perhaps ahead of his coach Lincoln Riley, who figures to get raise from $3.1m
What a year for Texas Tech! Kirby Hocutt making a bid to be Athletic Director of the Year...Basketball national championship game, Baseball one win away from CWS, T&F wins national championship, & fired football coach got an NFL head coaching job.
This was absolutely magical. Your World Series Champion Texas Rangers!!!!! So happy for this city and fan base and congrats to

I don’t believe what I just saw!
Allen QB Grant Tisdale desperation TD heave to Andrew Magee on final play of 1st half - Allen leads Trinity 21-13 at half
I love paying tribute to a coaching legend in post game coverage, but a 30 second interview with the coach whose team just advanced to the Baseball Final Four for the 1st time in school history would have been nice...& I bet Tim Tadlock would’ve mentioned Mike Martin in interview
So, ESPN is televising UConn/UCF, UNLV/Wyoming, Nicholls State/Texas State and UTEP/SMiss right now but Big 12 can’t get them to televise Oklahoma State/Kansas State.

When Bowman became Grapevine’s starting QB as a 9th grader in 2014, Ewers was a 5th grader at Eubanks Intermediate School in Southlake.
Jason Kidd is at a very similar point in his coaching career that Rick Carlisle was when hired by the Mavs at age 48 in 2008 with 6 years head coaching experience (281-211 regular season/30-32 postseason).
Kidd is 48 & has 5 years experience as a head coach (183-190/9-15).
In his 1st game as lead back in New England, Zeke Elliott: 29 touches, 140 yards, 1 TD vs

Sources say Southlake Carroll AD Darren Allman told the team in a meeting today that former SF 49ers Head Coach & Pro Football Hall of Famer Mike Singletary called to inquire about the Dragons head coaching vacancy.
Since 49ers can’t play in Santa Clara next 2 weeks, they should come to Arlington...Cowboys are on road next 2 weeks, then host SF on December 20th...Niners could stay at Omni, play 3 straight games in Arlington with up to 30k fans, work out at Globe Life Park..simple solution.

As we reported tonight on CBS 11 Sports, sources say Texas Tech will name Baylor AHC Joey McGuire as Head Football Coach. McGuire helped rebuild Baylor the past 5 years under Matt Ruhle & Dave Aranda & won 3 state titles in 14 years at Cedar Hill HS…great hire by Kirby Hocutt!

After beating top ranked Duncanville to win trip to state, Carroll Dragons parade by Coach Riley Dodge’s house. Dodge watched game from home after being diagnosed w/Covid-19 on Monday. Dragons play Austin Westlake, coached by Riley’s father Todd Dodge, in 6A state title game.
apparently, this is the 1st time an NFL team has been limited to 11 1st downs, 159 yards total offense, given up 6 sacks, but is "not getting beat physically"
Born and raised in Denton, Phyllis George was a true sportscasting pioneer — hired by CBS as an NFL Today host at age 24 in 1974...here she is working pregame with Brent Musburger & Irv Cross at Hail Mary game in 75...Gary Bender & Johnny Unitas in the booth.
