I'm Not Sure I've Ever Been Mentioned Once

Former Bridgeport high school star Phillip Daugherty has been mentioned in the Dallas Morning News for two days in a row. Daugherty withdrew from Texas Tech last month and enrolled at Sam Houston State. The two schools play each other on Saturday in Lubbock. Yesterday the paper included quotes from Tech coaches as to whether they feared Daugherty would steal the the offense signals (they don't). Today the paper quotes Daugherty as saying he doesn't expect his knowledge of the Tech offense to play a factor. The Tech web site still believes he is a Red Raider.

I'm a Tech fan living here in West Texas and I was SICK when I saw Daugherty had left - although it was the best thing for him. I don't know why everyone here was sooo ready to give Graham Harrell the backup job (I could see Phillip having to wait for Cody Hodges, since he's a senior). However, Harrell's daddy WAS a coach, so that probably helped. I almost wish SH State would beat Tech, or at least Daugherty would play and have a tremendous game.
BTW, remember when Daugherty was an eighth grader at Decatur, along with Brandon Kolb? Had they both stayed, just think how much more powerful the Eagles would have been. The QB depth chart could have had Kolb, Daugherty AND Chandler Dane. WOW...

My question is where would he get the best education? Isn't there life after football? Or, do you live the rest of your life in the "glory years"

who cares, any quarterback that comes out of bridgeport from the time danny henson got there is considered a god..and everyone one of them got a scholorship somewhere.. so he didn't get to play..i think a degree from TT looks alot better then some d-1 double A school..grow up.. and earn your spot on the team don't worm out of it..
