Re: Special Teams analyst Jay Nunez going to Bama as ST coordinator

Didn't even realize OU had a ST Coordinator... given the dismal performance of ST this past season, I think this offers the team & staff a substantial opportunity for improvement.

Re: 2024 Offensive Line Starters

Aside from possibly getting Landen Hatchett from Washington in the Spring portal, OU is done with OL recruiting. I am pleased with our portal transfers in and the young talent we have coming from HS and returning from last year's team. However at this point our OL quality next season is unknown. I ...

Re: 2024 Offensive Line Starters

Big domino falls into place for the good guys as Geirean Hatchett committed to OU earlier today. He should have 2 years of eligibility remaining.

Re: My Too Early SEC Thoughts...Whats Yours?

With Saban retiring, DeBoer (sp) taking over, the portal exodus out of Bama & aggy, the portal in general, & unlimited transfers, it's impossible to rank or predict anything at this point. That doesn't even take into consideration the inevitable season-ending injuries that happen in fall cam...

Re: Sooner Men's BB hosts Texas Tuesday night: Is LNC a Sell Out ??

Saw on Twitter that Moser is now 1-14 vs. KU, :osu:, & :horns: . Yes, the team has definitely improved this year over his previous 2 seasons, but that record vs. OU's rivals has got to improve. Hopefully he is able to build some consistency & develop the players on the roster & not have ...

Re: 2024 Offensive Line Starters

Interesting to compare/contrast Mayes' analysis w/ Ikard's. They have very different takes on Brown & Nwaiwu. The potential of landing the Hatchett brothers from Washington via the portal could have a major impact on the quality of the 2024 OL. Assume you land both of them & OU could go into...

Re: Lance Heard

THe problem is if you drop a huge bag for heard, then all the other Lineman, especially starters want as big or bigger bag. OU picked up 3 quality OL in the portal. Look at the hot mess at A&M?? Thats what happens when you start dropping money with zero idea of what havoc it can reek. If all He...

Re: 2024 Offensive Line Starters

Let's assume we don't get Lance Heard from LSU (which I am hearing is not likely) and just pencil in our current roster. Who starts next season on the OL? LT: Jacob Sexton, Jr.; Logan Howland, R-Fr. LG: Michael Tarquin, Sr. (USC transfer); Heath Ozaeta, R-Fr. Center: Troy Everett, R-Jr. or Joshua B...

Re: Predict OU record 2024 regular season

Brisket: it’s my impression that there is a ton of returning competitive depth on defense. What you said does not click with what many are saying. Pretty much the whole D returns for their 3rd year in BV’s system. It may be "competitive," but it isn't "experienced." OU is counti...

Re: Predict OU record 2024 regular season

I agree 100% with OUbeliever56. 7-5 seems to be most likely to me. The issues for next year's team are well-known: 1) Brand new QB. 2) New OC's & now a new DC. 3) Completely rebuilt OL. Even Bedenbaugh's best OLs required several games to "gel" & develop chemistry, and that was wit...

Re: Under Armour All-American game

SoonerScoop had a under armor practice report w/ Josh McQuiston on their YouTube channel the other day & it sounded like all the OU guys looked very good. Brooks was one of, if not the best, OL there. He should be in line for some playing time this upcoming season at one of the guard positions, ...

Re: My early thoughts of next year

Defensive (or offensive) stats based on per GAME are skewed compared to stats based on snaps . Comparing defenses across conferences is also error prone (Iowa and any team that played them) had good stats because they played 1950s offenses. OU has a lot of work to do on pass defense, but they did i...

Re: My early thoughts of next year

First off, I am definitely an optimist at heart, but after the past 2 seasons I also know that you have to be reasonable. #1 Our defense is going to be the best it has in the last who knows how long. We finally have stability with high quality, experienced players returning plus an infusion of some...

Re: Texass vs Washington

UDub did everything in their power to give that game away, & the Refs did their best to help out :horns: at the end too, but the 4-down sequence from the 12-yard line should haunt :hornsburning: & sark forever. That was just about the most pitiful set of plays I have ever seen.
