Red River Rivalry hits the golf course
Wearing crimson red, former Oklahoma Sooner golfer Anthony Kim was paired with Texas football coach Mack Brown at the Byron Nelson Classic in Irving, Texas.
Unfortunately, the two apparently didn’t talk Jamarkus McFarland or Asterisks-gate.
Said Kim in an interview, “I came out here with the mindset of talking some trash, but Coach Brown’s been so nice. I couldn’t get it to come out of my mouth.”
Replied Brown, “Everybody wondered about Texas and OU being mentioned all day. I don’t think after we shook hands and took pictures that it was mentioned again.”
