Five-Star Reviews for Thinking Texas Football

Great review of the team and conference. Paul is not only very knowledgeable about football and well informed about the team, he’s also an excellent writer that puts all the information in an entertaining and easy to read essay. An absolute must for any Longhorn football fan. – Rick Forehand

This book is truly spectacular not just for Longhorn fans, but college fans. If your team is on the schedule I would suggest checking this out to get expert knowledge of your team that you might not know. – Dmass4UT

Best preview out there for my Horns and who they play. – John Edwards, Jr.

The quality of the writing has always been worth the price of admission. These annual preseason publications are now incomparable; they are welcome echoes of a past when great sportswriters were in fact great writers. – MarkInAustin

Paul is the best option for covering Texas football. He is technical, funny, insightful and comprehensive. What I really enjoyed was his breakdown of Quinn Ewers’ passing stats in different distances and situations. He nailed last year with his predictions and analysis. This year looks great! Do yourself a favor and buy both the paper version and e-version so you can refer to it when needed! – jdirik

First purchase in 2013 and I was hooked. Sent copies to my closest friends. Funny, witty, and appealing for the hardcore or newbie. Paul’s unique style is instructive and fun. Grab a copy and share with with buddy. Primed for the preseason but timeless as a look back. – George Martinez

No better publication to prime yourself for Texas Longhorn football. Paul is a great writer! – dchamer93
