    That's the truly amazing thing about Trump.  He manages to find people who are loathsome in every possible dimension.

    Is Pruitt a complete whore to industry over the environment?  Check.

    Is the leader of an agency actually opposed to the agency and its very mission on almost every philosophical level?  Check.

    Does he abuse his power by ordering employees to do his bidding, regardless of legality or ethics?  Check.

    Does he view the treasury as his own personal slush fund, to be abused for personal purposes and gain at every turn?  Check.

    You get to hate him for policy reasons.  You get to hate him for competence reasons.  You get to hate him for ethical reasons.  About the only things he's avoided so far are sexual deviancy and animal abuse.  But....Oklahoma....so, don't bet against those quite yet.

    Seriously. There could not be a worse person running the EPA than Scott Pruitt.

    There's burgeoning hype being passed around in baseball circles regarding the prospect status of a one Kyler Murray. There were MLB teams in Norman this week who sat down with the guy and he's picking up a ton of contact. Much of this is sparked by the reality that KM has a decent toolkit put together that makes him projectable as a CF, which makes his valuable. Add to that that it looks like he's putting the tools together to have a decent season, and he's starting to draw a lot of interest. 

    Murray was viewed as a prospect heading into his SR year in high school. He then warded any MLB teams off from drafting him, as he was tiny balls deep in Aggie at the time. Then, last season for the okies, Murray had an abysmal year and his prospect status fell of the radar. This year has changed that.

    Now, don't get me wrong, there's probably going to be nothing to this. But maybe...

    If Murray were to get drafted and leave OU, the choices are not pretty. They're left with Austin Kendall and Tanner Schafer to duke it out at QB heading into 2018. That would be the most potent duo since Ace and Gary. So basically, a highly drafted Kyler Murray would put a rough buttfuck on the Sooners. Of course they'll show up to tell me how wrong I am, but it wouldn't look pretty.

    One other thing that's truly interesting about this situation is that Kyler Murray's uncle is Calvin Murray, the Longhorn baseball legend. Calvin works for, and closely with, Scott Boras. Kyler Murray's ability to maximize his upside in the draft is tied to a willingness to forego another punishing season as a college QB. Murray knows he has no NFL prospects as a QB and is enjoying the baseball season. It all could very well come down to how important it is for Kyler Murray to be the starting QB at OU. If that's not important and he continues to thrive on the diamond, the okies will be shitting themselves come August. 

    All I have to add is Tanner Mordecai will be in Norman this summer. And both Kendall and Murray are good enough to win the Big 12.

  3. Visitor list so far for the Spring game this Saturday. 

    The Red-White Spring game weekend, April 13th – 15th, is shaping up to be a massive recruiting weekend for the Sooners. Elite visitors from across the country, literally from coast-to-coast, will be flocking to Norman for the weekend.

    Below is a list of the class of 2019 recruits which we have compiled so far, and while it is quite extensive, we do expect the list to change as the weekend approaches. We also expect a large 2020 presence, and we will do our best to bring you some of those names by the middle of the coming week.

    While we are still confirming the types of visits for each athlete (official or unofficial), at this point, unless noted, we are working under the assumption that they will be official visits. However, things are very fluid, particularly with the more regional recruits who may just use an unofficial since they are within easy travelling distance.

    We will continue to update this list as we gather additional information

    Apparently, a majority of golf fans only pull for the flat bellied boys, with zero controversies  in their past.

    Give me a break.

    I’m not necessarily a Patrick Reed fan, per se, but I damn sure am during Ryder Cup.  Funny how most of the wrongdoings he’s accused or are not substantiated by facts.

    And God only knows why Bubba Watson is so disliked.

    I love golf, but most tour players are pussies, and most fans just wanna mimic the pros.

    Nice try, Patrick.

    I have excite for tomorrow.  I can't wait to lay on the sofa and watch golf while the rug rat complains to me about not watching Mickey Mouse.

    You have more strength than I. I've lost the last two afternoons to Bubble Guppies. 

    DVR is my savior.
