At this point who is the most likely candidate to be our lb coach? And maybe a darkhorse candidate no one has really mentioned.

Doesn't really apply to OU
But how freaking random is this talk of Chip Kelly to the Bucs?!?

Thats pretty crazy
I think it would set oregan back a few years if he takes it.
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
At least
I think the talk is they’re already in contract negotiations. I’ve read more than one person comparing it to the Pete Carroll situation w/ him (Kelly) trying to bail before the NCAA drops the hammer?

Curious to know if you all
Noticed some of the changes we made w/ the front page and if you think they’re positive or you could care less?

More about some things that we've added than actual format per se

the biggest thing other schools have to offer over OU
is PLAYING TIME
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
and that's a HUGE selling point
especially when our coaches never play backups

I think it's relative....
It’s not necessarily important to kids who have a certain moral makeup instilled by their parents.
I agree
and I think that probably costs us a few decent recruits every year
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
or OU loses some
because they don’t want to compete
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
that could be possible too
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
I'll agree with you on that
It’s just an opinion of mine, and it doesn’t mean that they can’t become team players
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
Those are the type of people who do t have good work ethic in our world.
Sure some buckle down & become better people. Most stay me first, job hop etc….
i can almost guarantee you other coaches use that against us on the recruiting trail

they'd be stupid not to
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
Those same players will sit at those schools too.
Now if they want to go to Tulsa/ole miss etc & play right away, have fun with that.
CC did you get my email?

ah, i missed the frist part of the show.
I was just letting him know that i got my prize

that wouldn't suprise me at all really

interesting
I’d heard Petrino. But I’d love Patterson to leave TCU.

I think Patterson may be to smart to go.
But Petrino has probably already called begging. Could make the dgb race interesting.
and you think Matt's not guilty of being long winded?
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
there is definitely a limited amount of time for your podcast
so I guess there’s only room for one

Venables never would have recruited him, he was too big for Venables system

sounds like Oregon
better get ready to be hammered
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
yeah like i said, that killed them for a few years easily

Oregon guys saying they will go after Chris Petersen

Kish
sounds like a member of the stoops cabal
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
kinda does doesn't it
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
it's also my understanding
that Kish has ZERO recruiting ties to texASS and that should be at the top of the list of hiring a “recruiter”
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
I don't want to discount the value of the current cali recruits
or other recruits from around the country,but they have no life-long HATRED for texASS and the Pukes – two of, if not the two – most important games on OU’s yearly schedule. It just can’t mean the same thing to them.

what a gift

I would like to think Stoops is smart enough to realize what this year was
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
IMO, if they went with Kish it would show complacentcy has set in
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
a&m basketball lose was tough, but
not as tough as losing to the Pukes
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
just for the record
Releford had FOUR points yesterday
Team FIRST, Effort SECOND, Talent THIRD, Selfish NEVER
It happens because people know they have to be on their game, OU is huge to everybody
"I feel sorry for peple who don't drink, when they wake up in the morning thats as good as they are gonna feel all day long." Frank Sinatra
you know they make pills for paranoia right?
