Types of Longhorn Fans

Deloss Dodds says there are 2 types of fans when the Longhorns lose. Those fans who do not jump off the bridge after a loss, and those fans who go into a deep depression after a loss.

If it is true that a fan’s public support helps recruit quality athletes, then it is REASONABLE to assume that a fan’s public criticism hurts the recruiting process.  

Below is a list of the different types of Longhorn fans – NOT all are good

and then there is the Wesley Allen fan.

Wesley was the quintessential fan -passionate, pure, sincere, unwavering, uncomplicated, and tireless. Wesley earned his friendships with Longhorn Head Coaches, team members past and present, UT administrators, and 1000’s of others.

                                                                           

 

His friends knew the purity of his heart, and they admired his glowing, eternal, and contagious spirit.  Wesley passed away in 2017. Rita Bigley Knight-Shaw said, “my prayers are that his passing was peaceful for his fight has been so great…..what a young man of strength he was……all young men should be like him…..love you forever .”
