This Just In..."Longhorns will Award Vince Young Heisman Trophy*"
April 6, 2009
The University of Texas has replicated the Heisman Trophy and will present it to Vince Young who defeated Matt Lienart and Reggie Bush head to head.
They will also present another replica Heisman to Colt McCoy because Texas won the RRS vs Sam Bradford the real Heisman winner.
Both replica's will have an asterisk inserted in the bottom corner of the trophy stand.
Texas also has claimed the 1996 and 2008 B12 Championships, because they defeated both participants of the B12 Championship game those years.
Texas coach Mack Brown says "Head to head is all that matters to us, we are sick and tired of awards and championships being given to teams and players we have defeated". "If we have to create our own awards and trophies, then by Bevo, we will, because Texas is big enough to do whatever we want to do" Brown said.
The asterisk placed on McCoys replica Heisman and on the 2008 B12 Championship stands for " ACTUAL TROPHY RESIDES IN NORMAN, OK" according to Brown.
I have had the replica Heisman trophy idea for several years since VY beat the 2 Trojans head to head, in order to keep the trophy idea a secret, the coach claims to have had the replica trophy "keistered" for over a year.
"It was difficult to walk around with that thing in there" Brown stated, "Gosh it's so much bigger than any of the players or referees who have violated me in the past, but I got used to it, because I knew it would be worth it one day"
University officials are also looking into other B12, SWC, and other national awards and championships Texas can claim dating all the way back to 1800.
"If we beat a team head to head and the other team won a championship or a trophy, then because we are Texas, we will claim our own replica trophy with an asterisk" Brown stated, he went on to say, "I can't compete with Bobby Stoops and OU when it comes to B12 championships or award winning players, but now with these replica's bearing an asterisk, I don't have to worry that any longer!"
Brown said predetermined and agreed to rules of the B12 or other loses Texas may incur to cause them to lose B12 championships or individual trophies are "as insignificant as Texas Tech and that foolish former OU assistant Mike Leech."
"It's a tremendously wonderful day to be a longhorn" and added "at least I don't have to keep the trophies top secret any longer, thank God for that" Brown exclaimed with a mixture of joy and relief in his voice.
One reporter asked Brown, "With Texas manufacturing their own unrecognized trophies and championships will it drastically cut down all the whining and crying you and your fans are noted for"?
"Absolutely not" said Brown," if this goes as smoothly as expected, we may drop out of the B12 and start the all new SWC, consisting of teams within the confines of Texas, where our trophies will be recognized".
