TCU’s Josh Hoover explains why he spurned the SEC and Tennessee

1 week ago | tylerpaper.com | Mac Engel

FORT WORTH — TCU quarterback Josh Hoover was confronted this spring with the scenario that makes a lot of people around TCU nervous, the same as every other program in the Big 12 and the ACC. If a school in the Big 12, or ACC, has a top player who is being “recruited” by a good team in the SEC or Big 10, would the appeal of playing in one of those two conferences be too great to reject?

1 week ago | tylerpaper.com | Jordan Green

State and federal agricultural leaders are making plans to combat a potentially devastating parasitic fly that they expect will make its way into Texas, potentially affecting livestock and pets. The New World screwworm, which has been eradicated in the U.S. for decades, has been detected about 700 miles away from the U.S. border in Mexico. Agricultural experts say it’s a matter of time before it enters Texas, but they’re preparing plans to eliminate it again.
With only 8% built, Texas quietly defunds state border wall program

1 week ago | tylerpaper.com | Zach Despart

Four years after Gov. Greg Abbott announced Texas would be the first state to build its own border wall, lawmakers have quietly stopped funding the project, leaving only scattered segments covering a small fraction of the border. That decision, made in the waning hours of this year’s legislative session, leaves the future of the state wall unclear. Just 8% of the 805 miles the state identified for construction is complete, which has cost taxpayers more than $3 billion to date.
Take the quiz after Longhorns passed the test of competing in the SEC

1 week ago | tylerpaper.com | Kirk Bohls

AUSTIN — With the final sprint and pitch and shot in the books, we put a wrap on yet another remarkable Longhorn year. I say remarkable, but that doesn't really do justice to the year that Texas had, does it? Given the fact it moved up in competition to the SEC and announced its arrival with a flourish, the year was spectacular. Texas is now setting the bar. Talk about sustained excellence across the board. I would say this is the Golden Age for the Longhorns, but Platinum Age may be more accurate.
