The 2025 DCTX Holiday Gift Guide

The Ultimate Texas Sports Fan Shopping List

If you’re shopping for the die-hard Friday Night Lights loyalist, the Sunday tailgate specialist, or the kid who refuses to take off their team hoodie, this guide has you covered. Consider this your all-Texas, no-nonsense, “we know our fans” holiday lineup.

1. DCTX Subscription

The gift that covers every yard of the Lone Star State.

A Dave Campbell’s digital subscription unlocks:

• 2,000+ live and on-demand games (football and other high school sporting events)
• Deep-dive analysis across Texas high school, college, and recruiting
• Behind-the-scenes coverage from the best insiders in the state
• Premium video, podcasts, newsletters, and subscriber-exclusive content
• Full access during the most chaotic months of the year: realignment, playoffs, and recruiting season
• A Dave Campbell’s Texas Football and Dave Campbell’s Rising magazine mailed directly to you

It’s the gift that lasts all year — and requires zero wrapping.

Perfect for: super-fans, coaches, alumni, parents who sit in the same stadium seat from August to December.

2. DCTX Merch: Hoodies, Mugs, Shirts & Stickers

Show your Texas pride — loudly or subtly. We support both.

Whether you’re buying for the fan who lives in a hoodie 10 months a year or the coworker whose mug collection screams “I watch a lot of football,” DCTX has you covered.

Our merch lineup includes:

• Hoodies for cold bleacher nights
• Ceramic mugs for early-morning game film or late-night scoreboard watching
• T-shirts built for tailgates, workouts, and everything in between
• Stickers to slap on laptops, coolers, water bottles, and the occasional stop sign (don’t do that)

It’s simple: real fans wear DCTX.

3. A Cameo from Tep, Stepp, Pickle, Powers, Mallory, Carter & More!

The most Texas gift money can buy.

Imagine your friend, spouse, or kid opening a personal video message from one of the voices that define Texas football:

• Greg Tepper delivering a pep talk or roast
• Matt Stepp breaking down your loved ones life like it’s a 3A playoff bracket
• Ashley Pickle offering the perfect pep talk or perfectly-timed sarcasm
• Greg Powers and Mallory Hartley giving recruiting advice or a birthday shoutout
• Carter Yates hyping up your family member like a coach before a big game

It’s unforgettable. It’s deeply Texan. It’s extremely us. Email subservice@davecampbells.com for more info.

4. Our Archived Magazines are the PERFECT Stocking Stuffer

Candy Canes are cool and all, but not as cool as seeing you or a family members name in an old version of "The Bible of Texas Football."

Did you know that you can order back issues of our magazine on TexasFootball.com? Just go to our STORE and search through all of our old magazines to find your favorite! We'll ship it to you.

Whether you were able to make it to AT&T Stadium and couldn't get your hands on one, or would like one as a keepsake, we've got 2025 UIL Football State Championship programs ready for delivery. Click HERE to order yours today.
