Brings back some of mine and pops best memories . Even Vince and Charles just the best decade I could’ve asked to grow up watching these guys. Easy to forget about Colt if you know nothing about the longhorns but this dude was an animal

Colt McCoy, I am a lifelong Eagles and Philly sports fan, I always enjoyed watching you play. I could tell by the way you carried yourself that you were authentic to the game and a good guy. We dont know each other and will probably never meet so the only thing I could do to show my appreciation is to watch this video and say "You did good man"! Congratulations on retiring and good luck in what you do next.

[@kjflick]

Great story about Colt. I graduated from Oklahoma but his story is inspiring for all. I wish him the best of success in life after football. He will be a winner at everything he pursues. Godspeed Colt!

[@timwilliams8343]

Thanks, Colt, you are a Definite Longhorn Legend! 🤘

[@JeremyReger]

You definitely inspired kids and men alike to be better and never stop even when the mountain was too steep.. and one day in Morgantown standing next to your dad amongst the band and cheerleaders getting to know your dad while we waited for the buses to unload, I realized why. He is maybe the most honorable man I've ever met. He was so kind, generous with his time, a true alpha male unlike today's toxic 'alphas.... I recognized immediately why you are who you are. Me and my 10yr old boy would have built that stadium brick by brick for coach and I had only known him for 20 minutes. Glad your story is a getting told..

[@jt.00011]

Behind Vince Young, Colt is my favorite TX Quarter! Colt played worked hard and broke his tail for this team. That game vs Alabama is still a "what if" if he got to play the whole game. Them real McCoy years will always be awesome and we're blessed to have gotten to watch Colt work🤘

[@rouse196]

Favorite college QB by far, and I've watched all of them for 20+ years. Learned a ton from this dude and Shipley was a stud also! My Alabama hatred grew by 10,000 when he went out. Devastating to sit through, can't imagine how he felt.

[@jujuchrys]

Colt, I went to UT Austin in 2008 and witnessed the greatness of your time there. I don't care what everyone else thinks but it was you who made me proud to be a longhorn. There is nothing but respect...

[@majapa]

Horns up forever, Colt. Thanks for everything you did and still do for Texas and the game of football.

[@Zuch3to]

Sooner fan here.. I despise Texas but Colt is the one player I have secretly rooted for.. He just seems like such a good dude, and I was genuinely disappointed when he was injured and unable to finish the game vs Alabama. A 14 year nfl career is nothing to hang your head on.

[@ArtemisMaximus42]

Thank you for everything you did for The University of Texas and beyond 🫡

[@LarryBird-b3x]

Much respect! Die hard Oklahoma State fan here. Colt and Shipley were killers.

[@txprospector]

Thank you Colt! Living in Austin I watched a lot of your games. Loved watching all those Colt to Jordan TD's!

[@RVRayRay]

Lifelong Ohio State fan/alum and I have always respected McCoy's heart and toughness. He had some huge shoes to fill at Texas and he came in and balled out. I did not like him so much when he was cooking my Buckeyes in the 2009 Fiesta Bowl, but it's hard not to root for a guy like that. He had a respectable NFL career despite his injuries. I believe he would have fared much better if he had started his NFL career 10 years later, with the new rules protecting the QBs. Respect to #12!

[@MarianneWeber-vq1op]

Another lifelong Buckeye fan/alum who has always cheered for Colt! Still have his Cleveland jersey and look forward to this next chapter. Welcome to the Big Ten, Colt!

I followed you through every game from 2006 to the last game with the Cardinals! That night at the Rose Bowl was an unbelievably heartbreaking event. I cried buckets! Colt won that game in my heart. Texas should have won. Colt didn't deserve that horrible moment! He will always be the best!!!!!!! God bless you and your family. I'll never love a game more than when Colt played. You would be an amazing coach!!!!!! Hook 'em!

[@NoEBoB94]

Longhorn faithful, McCoy was my hero growing up after Vince Young left Texas. I remember being little anxious to watch him play for Texas and I was ecstatic being a Cowboys fans and Colt McCoy fan seeing them together for one of his greatest moments.

[@AbeDallas68]

This was an amazing video as a big Colt McCoy fan when he was at University of Texas. But honestly I loved when Rachel McCoy said how she can show the interview of Colt after that national championship loss. To her daughters to show them this is how you handle adversity and how to handle losing. That was powerful which you all the best in the chapter of your lives.

[@alechendryx7023]

Colt, I never met you, but saw you play K-State a few times. My family had the privilege to meet your parents in a cave tour in Glenwood Springs, CO in June of 2022. We were their cave buddies for the short tour. I was wearing my K-State hat and that had us talking for a little bit. I thoroughly enjoyed talking to your parents for that short time. They were so nice to us and your two young daughters. They are such great people. Your kids are so lucky to have grandparents like that. Enjoy the rest of your life. We all know you will pour into other young people like your dad did. And you'll also be busy with your own big family. Take care.

[@deezee8508]

You'll probably never read this, Colt. But, thank you for all of the memories. UT hasn't been the same since you left. That just goes to show the work, effort, passion, and overall tallent for the game you have. Best of luck in your next chapter.

[@EmperorHadrian-k3s]

I love Vince what he accomplished in that Rose Bowl game is my favorite sports moment ever, but Colt is and was my all time favorite Longhorn. My son was born in 2009 and his middle name is Colt. Beyond being a great player he was and is such a quality human being. When Mack was on the sidelines and Colt was under center i was always so proud of what the team stood for.

Say what you want, Texas would have been beat Alabama in 2009 Championship had he not gotten hurt in the first few minutes. It could have changed the trajectory of college football for nearly the past 2 decades. Texas lost that game and never regained any of the same success until a run last year. The 2000's was a magical time for Texas football to go from Vince Young to Colt McCoy.

@@SoloChimp Cuz they were literally better in every single category....... Percieved bias and brand aka money is the only reason it makes sense for why Texas made that game. - TCU literally beat higher ranked teams than Texas - TCU played as many if not more ranked teams (depending on which polls you use) as Texas - TCU beat ranked teams by a larger margin than Texas - TCU beat all opponents by a larger margin than Texas - TCU played a harder OOC by calculated SOS (0.268) than Texas - TCU played a harder schedule overall by calculated SOS (0.006) than Texas - TCU had a statistically better defense than Texas - TCU had a statistically better offense than Texas So - your move dude to make sense of this bs selection.......

[@thecensoredmuscle563]

What made Colt and Vince, and even others like Tebow and Leinart is that they absolutely loved playing football at the schools they played at. They loved the school fans and alumni and outside fans. They were extremely competitive and wanted to win for their fans. You don't see that anymore and you really haven't since that era.
