  1. There’s a new book coming out about quarterbacks written by Seth Wickersham. Arch’s recruitment is described as being ruthless. The book is on pre-order now. I wonder what details will come out.

  2. Last day of upcoming tournaments that will affect the projected top 4 shown above

    Baseball 6/23, Women's golf 5/21, Men's golf 5/28, Women's lacrosse 5/25, Women's rowing 6/1, Softball 6/6, Women's tennis 5/18, Men's tennis 5/18, Track and field 6/14

    In my opinion, for purposes of these projected totals, it's better to go into a tournament and outperform your projection.  If you're #1 like North Carolina lacrosse or USC track and don't win, then you lose points compared to your projection.

  3. Local and national media types are drinking the kool aid.  Greg McElroy at ESPN said "I'm not sure there's been a team that's going to improve as much as I think Oklahoma has a chance to improve, I think Oklahoma is poised for a significant jump in wins. I think Oklahoma is poised to have some breakthrough candidates in multiple different positions."

    OU's counterpart of Craig Way said that OU got the top QB, RB, and WR (Gibson?) in the portal.

  4. Watching OU raid the FCS ranks in the portal has been interesting. Just saw they scheduled another visit for some DL from Southwest Missouri arts and crafts college or some such. They are also after some FCS TE as well and have been linked to some WR from Illinois State.
    There are always exceptions (Jared Verse) but it feels like you have to be a special type of talent to make that leap in competition and be productive.

    But OU is really great at developing players.

    They'll give Paige the pass they didn't give Clark.  One because Paige isn't be touted as the "Savior" and doesn't have a huge part of her fan base being racist assholes.

     

    Plus she went to UCONN which gives her an "In" already, and she meets 2 of their quotes...she's not Strait AND she's already cow towed and been very vocal about how much she is a privileged white girl.

    Yep. They already love her. She will NOT get the shit Clark did coming out(which is fine by me as I want the Wings to be good.)

    That was Clark.

    Where has it been confirmed that Paige is not straight?

  6. I have another Texas story that you'll enjoy hearing from the same neighbor.  In 2005, they picked up Michael Huff from the airport.  They asked him what clubs or restaurants he wanted to visit while he was in Oklahoma City.  Michael said he wasn't there for any of that and that he had early morning workouts planned, probably to prepare for the upcoming draft.

    Tech just had the #2 transfer portal class. One of the Double Eagle founders helped to make that happen.

    I think if one of our boosters was willing to spend and had a huge bump in net worth it would impact our team.

    If Tech was willing to commit $1 million to a softball player, they might go even higher for a blue chip football player.
