Re: Tyrone Jones [re: LonghornGirlie]

Skyrone,

Thanks for terrorizing field goal kickers all around the Big XII and the country. I'm sure they all had nightmares about you on the nights before games. You blocked a ton of kicks, but who knows how many others you altered by your presence. Thanks also for some great work at LB. Best of luck in the future.

HOOK EM, TYRONE!!

Tyrone,
Thanks for devoting these years of your life to Texas football. It's been a pleasure to watch you swat down field goals and chase quarterbacks.

I still think Kobe is more valuable than Tim Duncan, though. You'll never convince me otherwise.

Tyrone,
I have enjoyed watching you leap "skyward" on those special teams for the last few years!

Good luck in what ever you decide to do in the future. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication here at UT!

God Bless!

Skyrone I am truly glad to have been able to see you sky in person and block the field goal against Baylor. You have amazing talent and I hope you can play at the next level. Gool Luck and Hook'Em

Re: Tyrone Jones [re: LonghornGirlie]

"Thump-Thump" should be your nickname with all the kicks you have blocked. You have really helped to make our special teams less interesting and more special.

Good Luck with your future and Hook'Em.

Congrats on an outstanding career.

Re: Tyrone Jones [re: LonghornGirlie]

Skyrone -- I don't care how high Roy ever jumped, there's no way he can outleap you! Frankly, I'm shocked when field goals get by you with you so high in the air. You did it again just last weekend!

I am thanking all 4 of you Texas City boys because when you, Ervis, Everick and Jermain came here you caused our defense to improve immediately. You guys made it possible to improve immediately rather than slowly over 2 or 3 years.

We're gonna miss you. You are playing your best football this season IMO. The Dallas Cowboys and Houston Texans could use you, and I hope to see you playing for one of them next year.

Tyrone-

Thanks for working hard for the last 4 years. But most of all, thanks for giving me and your dad the chance to really talk LONGHORN FOOTBALL while we were at work for the last 4 years!

Good Luck with your career.

Re: Tyrone Jones [re: LonghornGirlie]

Tyrone

As a UT alum, and an ex-student trainer for the football team, I can say that I am PROUD to have had you and your classmates as part of our legacy. You gentlemen have been class acts on the field, but even more importantly...off the field as well.

I have experienced that after graduation...the winds that blow carry everyone in so many different directions, BUT, every fall you will again find yourself amongst family, living and dying with every snap, tackle, kick and whistle... be it from the 24th row in DKR or from a Satellite dish in another state. You'll love coming back and seeing everyone again....and hoping the new kids are as classy and hard working as you guys were....and so the baton passes again.

Thank you for choosing us.


God Bless & Hookem,
The Morgan family

Re: Tyrone Jones [re: LonghornGirlie]

Thanks so much for all that you have done to resurrect Texas football. Without looking, I'm sure we'd have to go back 20+ years to find a class that leaves with a better overall record.

During your 4 years here, you have done nothing but represent the school we all love with class and honor. . . THANKS!

Re: Tyrone Jones [re: LonghornGirlie]

Ty - when you have kids and they grow up will you please make sure that they understand the importance of the Longhorn Legacy? Can we please go ahead and get some early verbal commits on your future sons?

Good luck, man. It has been awesome having you play such a vital role in bringing the beloved HORNS back to life!
