VYPE editor Thomas Bingham, Hill Country Indoor sports director Evan Beyer and "Producer Josh" Waclawczyk continue their 2019-2020 sports coverage and kick off 2020 with the 19th Locker Talk Austin/San Antonio episode.
The hosts look back at the 12 UIL football state championship games, the historical context of Westlake's first UIL football state championship since 1996, and compare the great legacies of Westlake coach Todd Dodge and Carthage coach Scott Surratt.
The guys also discuss the mid-season UIL boys and girls basketball frontrunners, announce the football season pick 'em winner, breakdown the exciting NFL Wild Card Weekend, and launch the spring sports pick 'em.
