One of their biggest boosters is a billionaire trial attorney who is also Mack Brown's personal attorney. There's a statue of the guy in the athletic complex, and the field is named after him. Not because of anything he did for the program other than write checks.

Kind of TL;DR but a couple of good nuggets:

This coolstorybro that Jamail tells the Texas Monthly reporter:
When Frank Broyles coached at Arkansas, he used to have a golf tournament each year for all the Southwest Conference coaches. Darrell asked me and Willie to go with him one time—not to play, but just to be together. Afterward, Darrell brought Willie out to pick a few songs for everybody. At some point Willie hit a wrong note or something, and he said, ‘Ah, f— it.’ The old Baylor coach Grant Teaff was there, and he stood up and said, ‘This is a Christian group here. We’ve brought our wives. And we don’t appreciate that kind of language.’ Willie didn’t miss a beat. He started another song and sang:

"Jesus was a Baylor Bear

But Jesus wouldn’t cut his hair

His helmet didn’t fit

But Jesus didn’t give a $#@!

’Cause Jesus was a Baylor Bear"

And then we got up and got the hell out of there.
And here's the part where the booster takes on ShaggyBevo directly (the article specifically references and links to this ShaggyBevo thread: http://www.shaggybevo.com/board/showthread.php/138872-!-You-Joe-Jamail) ---
“Tell them to send me my money back, and then they can pull the statues down,” Jamail said over the phone the morning after the Tech game. “I don’t know who the hell those f—ing crybabies on the Internet are. Could be Aggies or the Taliban, for all I know. Or f—ing al Qaeda. Because every real UT fan is proud of this team and the way they’ve turned their season around.”
