No one questions the fundamental fundamentalism of Texas high school football. It's big, big time. If you doubt that, attend a Southlake Carroll or Westlake game sometime and behold the spectacle. EDSBS linked to something today that given even what you think you know, will blow your mind: http://www.ltcavalierfootball.com/id6.html.
For the uninitiated, Lake Travis will be playing for all the marbles this weekend. I saw them beat the shit out of Westlake (a 5A school) earlier this fall and they are captained by Garret Gilbert who some are calling the greatest high school quarterback they have ever seen. He's UT bound and fits in well with Mack Brown's Master Plan for World Football Domination. He'll probably redshirt this next year, assuming Colt retains use of his limbs after the OU game.

showed the pictures to a co-worker whose son plays baseball for a local (Texas) public high school - one whose teams historically haven't won a whole lot but "they try real hard". He just shrugged shoulders like, "yeah, so? doesn't everybody have facilities like that?"
Wonder what guys like Bob Lilly would have been like had they had today's equipment and training techniques available.
We had a couple of "Universal Gyms" inside the football stadium to work out on in the Spring football programs. We would rotate around the various stations of the machines. That looks like Gold's Gym.
