Send us a textIt is the Texas HS Football Podcast with Taylor Arenz 100th Episode and she couldn't be more excited and proud to hit this milestone.Back in the summer of 2022, Host Taylor Arenz started this podcast with a simple goal: to shine a spotlight on the incredible athletes and coaches that make Texas high school football so special. Her very first interview was with five-star defensive lineman David Hicks Jr., who is now at Texas A&M, living up to that five-star ranking. Over the past three seasons, she has had the honor of conducting 295 interviews!!!!  In the early days, Taylor would pack seven or eight interviews into a single episode—though they were much shorter conversations. As the podcast evolved, she has focused on getting to know each guest in more depth, allowing for longer, more meaningful interviews.With the rise of NIL and the transfer portal reshaping college football, this podcast is more important than ever. It gives players a platform to tell their stories, introduce themselves to coaches, and get their names out there. This has never just been about stats or rankings—it's about getting to know the people that make up Texas HS football.So, thank you for being part of this journey Taylor is beyond grateful for your support, and here's to another 100 episodes!A special milestone needs a special guest so this week we have the legendary Texas Sports Hall of Fame coach and current Lovejoy Leopards Head Coach Todd Dodge!

On April 18, 1931, Texas Sports Hall of Fame member and hometown son of Saint Jo, Texas, Harley Sewell was born. After growing up in Montague County, the Saint Jo Panther football star attended the University of Texas in Austin. Standing 6 feet 1 inch and weighing in at 230 pounds, Harvey Sewell was a dominant defensive player and was a 1952 All American. He was the Defensive Most valuable player at the 1953 Cotton Bowl against Tennessee. The UT defense, thanks in large part to Mr. Sewell, allowed only 6 Tennessee first downs and 32 yards of total offense. Tennessee had negative 14 rushing yards for the game. He was also an All Southwest Conference guard in 1951 and 1952. Everyone remembered him as a very hard working, exceptionally quick player. Sewell went on to play eleven seasons in the NFL. He was the thirteenth pick in the first round of the 1953 NFL draft and was selected by the Detroit Lions. Detroit moved him from defense and made him an offensive guard. He started at right guard as a rookie and was important part of the team that won the 1953 NFL championship. He played for Detroit from 1953 to 1962 and then played for the Los Angeles Rams for 1963. Sewell made it to 4 Pro Bowls, in 1957, 1958, 1959, and in 1962. After his career as a player ended, he went on to scout for the Los Angeles Rams for 37 years. Harley Sewell was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2000. Mr. Sewell died at age 80 on December 17, 2011. The Texas History Lessons Theme song, Walking Through History, was written and recorded by Derrick McClendon.
