  1. Apparently, he is much more Panama Myers than George Mueller
    Except that he has George’s height. 
     
     
    This is a lump of clay that I think this coaching staff can mold into something that can help our team. No tripping over his feet and falling down while just running down court. 

    If he’s got Panama Myers’ heart at 7’2” I’ll take him!

  2. [mention=429]closetojumping[/mention]you had a post earlier this week saying they would have a good year.. 8 wins maybe?.. After seeing this.. You still expect them to win 8? 

    Both things can be true. You can be a really good football player and not be good enough to make the 2 deep at Texas.
  3. You are mixing and matching a lot of shit in these posts, man. 
    That era was not “pre-Internet” and the AAS had a massive forum base covering all Big 12 programs. The biggest one was the Texas forum, which was the precursor to Hornfans. The Brees stuff that persists to this day - much of it started there. 
    Also, they of course wanted Minor, but Mackovic simply thought that Applewhite looked like a player and wanted the guy on the team.

  4. I’ve added to my guilty pleasure of reading Sooner sites. I also listened to a couple of podcasts. This is what they claim, and I’m curious as to other opinions of their accuracy. 
    1. They are frustrated with the modern state of the game. “It’s out of control. Something must be done”. 
    2. NIL seems to be a problem for them. They say that OU can get the money, but Brent wants to build a program on “relationships”, rather than “transactions”. 
    3. They say OU can get the money; it struggles in organizing the collectives and making the “ask”. 
    4. They want the NCAA to step in and regulate this. They think NIL really should just be compensation for promotions, and not pay for play. They also allow that there are probably a couple of key players on each team that deserve significant high six figure pay (you figure that one out).
    5. They are bringing guys like Curtis Loftin and Mark Clayton in to work personnel staff “GM” and recruiting coordinator positions. 
     
    My thoughts:
    Are you kidding me? The NCAA? Do they really think that’s still a thing? Hell, they started the dumping of the NCAA in football, with UGA, in the ‘80s. 
     
    Then, I figured it out. They may never have been real supporters of the NCAA, but it filled a real function for them, for decades. The NCAA had rules, and their key rivals, UT and NU, followed them. This was a huge part of their success. If Texas had bid for players against Switzer, he would never have won a single MNC. But Texas didn’t, and OU could pay a key recruit $150k to sign, no $30k per year, and Boomer Sooner. 
     
    Now, Texas’ boosters are funding NIL, and OU is struggling to keep up. They want the NCAA to step in, and regulate Texas, so they can get back to the good old ways. 

    So I’m reading “FUCK 0u”

  5. So let see if I have this correct. 
    1. Saban signs Julian Sayin. Number 2 QB in the class of 2024.
    2. Saban retires.
    3. Alabama hires  Kalen DeBoer from UW.
    4. DeBoer brings his OFC.QB coach Ryan Grubb with him.
    5. They decide Sayin isn't their type of QB and essentially run him off to Ohio State in about two weeks.
    6. Grubb decides to go back to Seattle and become the Seahawks' OFC.
    7. Alabama doesn't have a five star QB they did a month ago, doesn't have an OFC, doesn't have a QB coach.
    8. Good job on the transition Kalen. 

    Are they going to try and run his offense with Milroe ??
