AUSTIN, Texas - T.J. Ford entered the Frank Erwin Center Saturday night as he had done so many times before as a former player. Only this time he was a spectator.
Accompanied by his wife and three children, Ford nestled into his seat and prepared for the highly-anticipated matchup between the Longhorns and their Red River Rival, the Oklahoma Sooners. Midway through the first half, Ford and his family were ushered to midcourt to be recognized in front of a packed arena full of Longhorn faithful.
