Texans Sold, to Relocate
 More stuff every day...Pending approval, the WSHL Thorne Cup Champion Fort Worth Texans have been purchased by a group consisting of Jon MacWilliams, Daniel Negreanu, Gavin Smith, Eric Lundgren, and Bill Edler. The team will be moved to Tucson and will play at Tucson Ice. Jeremy Law, who as a rookie coach vanquished the Phoenix Polar Bears and promoted over a dozen players to either Junior A or college teams, has been retained by the group and will be GM in addition to head coach, and several Texans players will be making the move with him as well. A new nickname/logo should be released in a few days, along with the website. There is currently no word on what Law will do with his Texans tattoo. I fully expect a new franchise on the west side of the DFW Metroplex to be announced before the Junior Council meetings. |

post a commentHow come the Texans didn't place any of their advancing players on the website? Over 12 is a lot but I could find no record of it.
Not questioning it, just curious where they went.
I just want poker lessons from the owners...
Has this sale been approved by the league yet? Have no heard anything lately.
I have heard that some things have come up and the deal is dead
The deal is DEAD! Texans have gone under--there will probably be a team in Tucson, and ther will probably be a team in Fort Worth, but neither will be from the old Texans--their charter has been dissolved--Maybe the old group will sell off the jerseys--they were nice!
