Our favorite Charlie Strong memes of the day
Posted February 3rd, 2016
National Signing Day was a big day for the Longhorns. Twitter reacted in its usual fashion with creative memes and GIFs. We collected some of our favorites from the day.
When Houston Westside DT Jordan Elliott signed with Texas in the early afternoon, news of the Longhorns recruiting victory was all over social media, but it’s more fun to picture it like this scene from Braveheart.

Charlie Strong did the dab after Manor LB Erick Fowler picked Texas over LSU in the morning, but we figured that wasn’t the only dancing he did throughout the day.

After Aldine Davis linebacker Jeff McCulloch, AKA The Shark, announced he was going to Texas over Texas A&M, College Station might have felt like this scene from Jaws.

When Strong kept getting recruits, it was kind of like how the Longhorns kept scoring on Oklahoma.
