  1. OU used an almost identical design for their welcome sign for recruits this weekend. Further proof there's little to no difference in any of these creative positions. Let's see drone footage, reflected neon hallways in tinted visors, and let's make absolutely sure we show how "icy" our whites all are...
  2. What did kobefan824 do? That's a lot of power that I don't think is safe with one person...
  3. It's a hoodwink game, man. Drew Sanders was told in no uncertain terms how his career would go at Alabama at LB, then it happened, now he's transferred. It's going to happen again and again with the top-flight schools who can recruit over very talented players. The closers close and the players who get scraped off are the ones to pay the price.
  4. Also true, and they've got a new guy coaching his position, so that means something. I'm sure he'll improve next season.
  5. Our daughter's name is not one of these, but she gets called "Olivia" about 100 times a month because of this phenomenon.
  6. This sort of happened with Tristan Leigh a year or two ago. He signed with Clemson and dragged OU and a few others through the next month or two, potentially exposing them to a violation. Consensus at the time was that if it's the player misleading, the institutions aren't responsible.
  7. It ends here. I can promise you that. All of my cousins are guys, so any of our forbidden love doesn't produce offspring.
  8. When the mother-in-law and brother-in-law come over, it's 80/20 against. Weird genetics over there.
  9. I bought the version with the knob on top, because I'm the only right-handed person in the house.
  10. I know I'm going to have a quiet chuckle when they lose a game they shouldn't, but I think just about every fan feels that way about other teams.
  11. Oh, and they kept Donte Williams as CBs.
  12. Odom is inside, Manning is outside.
  13. It's worth mentioning that Manning won't be coaching DBs at USC under the same Coordinator and Head Coach. Even they know he was not right for that job, which begs the question of why they let him do it for so long in Norman.
  14. I don't understand this hire, either. He's a glorified bag man who hasn't done well in an on-field role anywhere. He's Bryan Carrington. He's Chip Vines. OU already HAS a Chip Vines...
  15. They're putting this out publicly as a development opportunity versus a money one. I have zero inside information, but if it leaks that he's getting a ton of money from somewhere without a credible QB coach/OC, that's going to ruffle feathers as you said.
  16. I think that's the question. Is there a need to do it the same way? It worked for Clemson because Dabo pushed his faith so much. Now with NIL, is the methodology equal, or behind the times.
  17. What's his age versus Joe C.? Would he be seeing this as a successorship if Joe is ready to go in a few years?
  18. Indispensable part. They needed someone with a vision for how to compete in the new climate, and a history of getting that off the ground in two of the biggest success story programs of the last 20 years.
  19. Valai is a "recruiting coordinator" who demanded to be put in an on-field role. It went as well as you might expect. Every move Venables is making seems like it's targeted at recruiting and building a donor network to support players/recruiting. No idea if that's going to work long-term, or if the existing OU fan infrastructure can support that commitment. Side note: we already have Chip Viney, why do we want Valai??
  20. I heard the opposite story, that Venables pitched him as a 3-tech and A&M told him he could play the edge. Who knows what's real, though.
  21. TBD, I suppose. Nothing announced ahead of time, this year.
  22. Apparently Kanak is in the OU student portal and will be an early enrollee. Per Eddie Rado and Bob P.
  23. Kanak has been showing up in some of the nightly Sooner Twitter spaces on his own, so we know there's at least interest there from his end. Venables is working hard to not come across the way Lincoln has, and some OU fans aren't happy. They see anyone who decommits or puts their name into the portal from Clemson as free game, and it's hard to argue that. Don't pursue active commits, don't pursue rostered players, sure, but if a player initiates contact or expresses interest, there's got to be some kind of response. We don't know what's going on behind those conversations, though. No player in any of those situations has commented about Venables, as far as I know, so it's pure speculation.
  24. British
  25. I think the timing of his Greg conversation is meant to imply that he is throwing in against Logan, but the misdirect is that he was selling out his own wife. That's the Evil he's talking about. Being able to say "what's wrong?" to his wife with a straight face at the end means that Tom has finally learned the lesson and given himself over to the worst impulses. He even said it to Kendall weeks ago. "I've never seen Logan get fucked...not once." No chance he's going up against that to support a wife who won't even pretend to love him anymore.
