Kliff and Mahomes are already primetime, but now they’ve gotten a huge historical Texan honor.
Dave Campbell’s Texas Football Magazine has been a tradition in the state of Texas for many years. High schoolers rush to the magazine section upon its yearly release, hoping to get a glimpse of their football team. It’s not as widely acclaimed in the college ranks, but the information in it is still amazing. Today, the cover page of the prestigious Texas magazine was released, and it features two of our favorite people.

While we’re still going to have to wait and see about how we’re ranked in the magazine itself, having a cover all to ourselves is a big honor. Greg Tepper, Managing Editor of DCTF, wanted the photo to have a modern spin on an old classic.

Being implicitly compared to Darryl Royal is a big honor indeed.
