Each year, the Wildcats present the Jim "Shorty" Kleinau Award to the player who exemplifies loyalty, hard work and commitment.

I wonder if they'll keep the award.  WTF Prince?

Prince is basically a bad man.

Poor guy never had a chance.

Fast

Discipline
Bold
Daring

That award is going out with the leftover goulash.

How does an equipment manager get fired?

It's like the easiest job in the world.

And Shorty estabilshed the "Cradle of Equipment Managers".

I knew one of the guys that "moved on" for more equipment manager success.  Probably the "slowest" people I ever met in college.

Prince is holding him accountable for not being prepared for the field conditions at the Texas Bowl.  This is something Bill should have done a long time ago.  You could see it the past few years, the players chin straps coming loose, inadequate mouthpieces...the list goes on and on.  We'll be a better program because of this.

Seems like I remember hearing a "rumor" from a couple of seasons ago about us getting different knee braces.  Basically they were POS and led to some of our guys having knee problems.

Then again, my memory isn't the greatest.  :shy:
