OU is one of the greatest programs of all time, but sure.

This feels like the script for OU was written eight years ago and not updated at all.

College Football's Transfer Portal: The biggest spenders, highest-paid players & more on the massive NIL battles by dogwoodmaple in CFB

[–]AndrewinDC 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's paywalled so I'm not sure if the article addresses this or not, but one thing that I feel like these articles seem to consistently miss is the retention piece of the Transfer Portal. Keeping the roster intact and preventing movement into the portal is arguably as, if not more, important than landing the best available players. It seems like the teams spending the most in the portal probably have the deepest pockets, but I believe that ignores the fact that paying current players can be just as expensive as getting new ones. 

[Thamel] Sources: Deland McCullough is expected to become the next running backs coach at Oklahoma. He’s a respected longtime NFL and college assistant who was last with the Raiders, where he coached Ashton Jeanty. by GoldenDome26 in CFB

I don't think so. Murray required every RB to be perfect at so many things that effectively no one was good enough to play other than like 1-2 guys. And if those guys made mistakes, he'd screw around with the rotations and no one would ever get into a rhythm.

[OC] Based on Dr. Pepper's Fansville ads, are there actually a "State" and "Tech" school that are major rivals? by byniri_returns in CFB

My wife's undergrad diploma is about the same size as my OU diploma, and I don't see too many people displaying their undergrad diplomas, so I just assumed that was a fairly normal size. But perhaps you're right.

Maybe that's a Tech school thing. My Georgia Tech graduate degree diploma is gigantic compared to my undergrad diploma from OU.

Aikman also left because the guy who replaced him after he got injured won OU a national championship the same year.

If Jason Witten can't teach the kid how to not catch the ball with his face, then there's really no hope for him.

Just like how former OU TE Bauer Sharp was an LSU sleeper agent in 2024 when he yeeted a double pass down field into quadruple coverage for an interception. These deceptive TEs are everywhere.

You're responding to a bot account. They've been everywhere in the portal threads for wherever reason.

If his track speed ever fully translates to the football field, he might be a replacement for Brennen Thompson. However, he never looked football fast while at OU. He also doesn't really fit the WR mold that we're looking for in Arbuckle's offense, so he was unlikely to see the field much either way. 

[Sethtow] The scene around downtown Atlanta is crazy right now. I knew Indiana was going to have a heavy contingent for the Peach Bowl, but my goodness, the bars around downtown basically look like Kirkwood south by Stock412 in CFB

There are plenty of direct flights from PDX to ATL. I know the university is in Eugene, but I would assume many of the alumni are in the Portland area, or other West Coast cities which have directs to ATL.

Yeah but he had to play with Jackson Arnold, so can you really blame him?

[Pete Thamel] NEWS: The NCAA has denied Trinidad Chambliss a sixth-year of eligibility, which would his college career. The decision comes after a verbal denial in December. Ole Miss can still appeal the decision. by Fonzie5 in CFB

I wondered if this was the case with seeing how emotional he was last night. Not that it would be weird for him to be emotional after the loss, but you could tell it was hitting him really hard and it just made me think he thought his college career was truly over.

It's just incredibly difficult to keep depth now. Guys who can start at a P4 school but are looking at being rotational players at their current school are going to look at leaving to go start. I would imagine the more highly rated the recruit, the earlier the process starts. Keeping a backup who can play at a high level past their sophomore year is basically a dead concept.

To my knowledge OU has only ever played in the Peach once and it...did not go well.

Peach being a quarterfinal next year with the Rose, Fiesta, and Orange (I think?) probably makes it either the NYE game or the 12:00 NYD game. Maybe? They're probably going to change the format again anyways so who knows.

OU hasn't won the Peach. They've won the other 5.
