Texas Longhorns Q&A: Chance Mock is Forever Burnt Orange

There is a saying about best-laid plans often going “awry.” For example, coming out of The Woodlands High School, then Parade All-American Chance Mock was sure he was headed to that school in College Station. Sure of it.

That is until he visited Austin and took a meeting with Mack Brown. After that, it was fait accompli: Mock was going to be a Longhorn. His place in history will forever be associated with bridging the gap between the Major Applewhite/Chris Simms and Vince Young eras.

His finest year came as a starter for six games in 2003 when the Horns went 4-2.
