The last time I saw Augie Garrido, he was excited about meeting with Chris Del Conte, the new Texas Athletics Director, to talk about how he could help Texas.
It was a role he cherished; a chance, as Darrell Royal once said, that defined what it means to be a Texas Longhorn.
That was why, when word came this week, about a stroke that would take our Longhorn Legend's life – at least for the moment, there seemed something left so hollow. It was, in some ways, a life unfinished. And yet in other ways, no person could have ever changed so many lives, given us all so many thrills, and touched so many hearts.
