Crabtree redshirted last year because the Red Raiders were set at receiver. His first game, and first start, came in his hometown of Dallas and he made it memorable with plenty of highlights: a 1-yard touchdown pass with 2 seconds left in the first half, dazzling open-field running and a nifty move to kick the pylon as he crossed the goal line on his long TD, and the 2-yarder to redeem himself one snap after a lob was knocked from his hands in the back of the end zone.
Crabtree initially was ruled out of bounds inside the 1-yard line on his long touchdown, but it was fixed by a replay.

I didnt realize his mother gave him my name. I was pretty wild in my Army days. He doesnt favor his Great Grand Mother much, Mrs Crabtree from the Little Rascals. He luckily got his looks from his mother, but as you can see I stamped him with my speed and athletic build!!!!!!

Good hounds a son with NFL potential what else can a man ask for?

The closest Mike Crabtree will ever get to that young man's NFL potential will be to, in the immortal words of Adam Sandler, the original waterboy, will be to offer him "some mighty fine H-TWO-OH!" then show up at his wedding and offer to be his agent!!!!! or something like that anyway. Never mind. Too much homework, I'm fried. Been studying for an art appreciation class and I have concluded that in olden times everyone ran around nekkid. Olden times must be like West Virginia.
