The Ewers Era in Austin: A Chronological Journey (with a healthy dose of Longhorn Laughs)
Ah, Quinn Ewers. The name that sends shivers down opposing defenses' spines and a collective sigh of relief through burnt orange jerseys. But how long has this gunslinger been calling Texas home? Buckle up, because we're about to embark on a journey that's more exciting than a fumble recovery in the endzone (almost).
The "Will They? Won't They?" Saga (August 2020 - October 2020)
The story begins like a classic rom-com. Young Quinn, the nation's top recruit, pledges his eternal love... well, commitment... to the University of Texas. Fans erupt, visions of championships dance in their heads. But wait! There's a twist! A siren song from Columbus, Ohio (that song being the almighty Buckeye fight song) throws a wrench into the plans. Our poor hearts are left in tatters, wondering if this beautiful romance will ever come to be.
The Buckeye Fling (November 2020 - January 2022)
Texas fans drown their sorrows in Whataburger honey butter chicken biscuits (because, let's be honest, that's the cure for most things) as Quinn heads north. Rumors swirl, whispers of a prodigal son's return. But alas, a year in Columbus proves to be... well, not quite a fairytale.
The Homecoming King Arrives (January 2022 - Present Day)
Then, like a knight in shining armor (or perhaps a quarterback in burnt orange), Quinn announces his return to Austin! The prodigal son has come home, and the party truly begins. He leads the Longhorns to a historic season, a Big 12 Championship, and has fans everywhere saying "we knew it all along!"
So, How Long Has Ewers Been a Longhorn?
Technically, since January 2022. But in our hearts? Since the very beginning. After all, true love can take a little detour, right? Now, let's get ready for another thrilling season with Ewers at the helm, because with this gunslinger leading the charge, the future of Texas football is looking mighty bright (and full of touchdowns)!
