If my kid were coughing up blood because of a football-related injury, I'd have a hard time wanting to see them out there getting hit again the same way a week later. It wasn't even a weird, non-contact or odd circumstance, just getting drilled in the chest on a tackle.
I'm here because the majority of OU fans online are painfully unfunny and have no sense of self-deprecation about how ridiculous college football is, whether it's going well or poorly.
Plus, getting someone else's point of view of what's happening in the program is always entertaining, and sometimes enlightening.
Drumm and Thune have pretty much signed this one over to ATM. Drumm said he got some info from someone at ATM indicating they internally felt like they were catching up to OU, but stopped juuuuust short of saying it's all Aggy at this point.
More on Kanak...
Apparently it was a pulmonary contusion, lung bleed that he tried to play through until he was coughing up blood and unable to catch his breath. Talks about it on his podcast:
There just aren't many programs that consistently land that level of talent in any reliable way. I saw a report that the only 5-star DL signed last cycle outside of the SEC were Woods at Clemson and Adebawore at OU. That's it for everyone not named Bama, Georgia, and LSU.
That's a really good idea. The time it takes to get the potatoes done can ruin other parts of a dish. I struggle with getting it all timed out correctly, and I'm absolutely trying this the next time I do a recipe like this.
It was a strange situation, he was absolutely being groomed to take over, but never seemed to show the flashes of leadership or innovation you might expect out of someone who really wants to be a head coach. Once he was let go, it seemed to both light a fire under him and let Bob know he needed to find someone he could turn the reins over to entirely.
No. Not because there's no money, but because the amount it would take to get Heupel back on campus for any kind of role would be double what he would take anywhere else. He was rightfully pissed at being made the scapegoat for some of the decisions Bob made for the offense and the failures on the other side of the ball. As long as Bob is hovering anywhere around OU, Heupel will show up when Tennessee comes to play.
I worked in Nova Scotia for a week or so, and some of the other attendees had families of lobster fishers from the south side. One said her dad swore that the McDonald's lobster roll there was the best you could get on the whole peninsula. Never woulda guessed.
There was a Taco Mayo in the bottom floor of one of the dorms at OU when I was there. Never an amazing idea for a whole meal, but you could get down to the pennies on your meal plan points with dollar menu items, including a tortilla chili pie.
One of my favorite memories is the rehearsal dinner at a cousin's wedding in Annapolis. The old timers all had personalized crab knives that looked about a thousand years old. They could go through a half dozen in ten minutes and leave them with nothing but gills and Old Bay.
He came in and played really well as a freshman, then got steadily worse and less confident as things progressed. If Miami is able to undo some of the damage done, they'll have a really talented guy to work with. They were able to do it with Farooq at WR, so it's definitely possible in some cases.
