    More and more I see Simmons putting the old Ocean things back...quads out of the drill, faster tempo for drilling, hit 40yds first, Ocean beat from the right side coming out of the hole, interacting with the crowd during the drill and dance routine, symmetry with percussion. He's also really cleaned up alot of things, wonderful. Just wonderful. And that sound. Wonderful! They sound like a giant jazz-funk-soul big band. I KNOW Prof Butler is so proud! Ocean alum 01-03, section leader. Law school grad. Lemme gone n give some money...

    😮 Was my face the entire time! This was ten leagues beyond phenomenal! The nostalgic feeling I get when I first saw an HBCU band is the feeling I get when watching TXSU!!! Y’all are breathing life back into the HBCU band world. I’m booking my plane tickets for TXSU VS JSU RIGHT NOW!!! 😅😅😅That matchup in Veterans Memorial is going to be BOOMBOX LEVEL!!!

    Simmons really studied txsu to rebuild without taking away from traditions !! He’s a goat and this coming from a jstate person.

    The crazy thing is, they’ve been drilling like this all season. This is why they will be one of the top bands in the nation, not just in HBCUs.

    I crabbed 06 and I'll never take anything away from Gip and what he did for the ocean....but these new niggas on a whole other level. I knew there had to be a better way to pull off drills man lol. we used to spend so much time out there for some OK field shows. I love everything about this new era, especially the part of keeping it OCEAN. TRUMPET CONNECTION 1983 FALL 2006🎺🌊

    This might be the best drill I’ve ever seen and honestly I don’t think it’s even close 🤯🔥🔥🔥

    By far the best show from what I've seen. I can't say I'm surprised. This was high energy, precision packed, and crisp sounding field show. TXSU actually kept you engaged and this one of few swac bands where the field show is an afterthought. I'm glad to see Mr. Simmons has kept TXSU close to it's tradition while incorporating some new ways of doing things. This is still recognizable as the Ocean of Soul. Those euphos still making some big time noise.

    I’m not even done watching the video and I have already gone through so many different emotions of awe and excitement! Simmons/staff/students have literally restored excitement back into drilling, precision, and trying different daring things all while maintaining the TXSU swag that makes them so unique! Love this band Simmons/staff are literally some young hungry entertainment geniuses!!!!

    What an INCREDIBLE performance TSU Ocean Of Soul 🌊. TSU definitely had the best band there, from all the bands that I've seen so far. I still have to watch Alabama State and Langston though. TSU sound, as well as both precision drills were well on point. TSU has made a complete turn around. The flags were awesome as well. Motion field show was truly OUTSTANDING! Motion and SU Dolls are the TOP 2 teams when it comes to the field from what I've seen. Well done Mr. Simmons, Danielle Stamper and Staff! ♥♥♥♥
