I'm sure some of you would love to have this, as would I...but then again not really. Any guesses on who it belongs to? I definitely have one.

Texas '05 title ring listed, then pulled from eBay (http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=2456704)

AUSTIN, Texas -- Here today, gone tomorrow.

A ring from Texas' first undisputed football national championship in 36 years was listed for sale on eBay, then pulled from the site.

For a 10-karat gold ring valued at about $350, bids had reached more than $10,000 by Wednesday afternoon before the listing was pulled from the online auction service.

The anonymous seller said the ring belonged to a former Texas player but doesn't say whom. The name and jersey number on the ring were blacked out in the photographs.

Athletic department spokesman Nick Voinis said school officials don't know which player owned the ring or who is selling it. The ring is sized 10½-11.

"It's disappointing," Voinis said. "It's something you should be honored to receive. Every other player is taking pride in theirs."

NCAA rules prohibit current players from selling championship rings. But there's little to prevent former players from cashing in.

Texas bought about 200 rings for players, coaches and staff.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Haha well Ramonce might not see any playing time next year. He's not currently on the roster, and UT's pretty much had it with him.

No Ramonce (http://www.mackbrown-texasfootball.com/index.php?s=&change_well_id=16&url_channel_id=15)

Scroll down, his name is missing, and it was up there up until his recent arrest. Rumor is he's out, barring some kind of miracle (but thats been the rumor for a while, even before the recent stuff).

Ah well, he also deleted his facebook. Too bad, I lost a facebook friend, me and like 2,000 other people since he had about that many friends (maybe more). Oh Ramonce and his constant need to be high.
