I don't think Corey Nelson all of a sudden forgot how to play LB from sophomore to junior season. and two years ago, we played against the likes of RG3 who is way better than the qb's he faced this...
wow great news on a day when we all need some good news. this kids offer list is legit.
The other kid that only gets 99 hand written letters is gonna be pissed ... Saban method or not, I think its a dumb idea. I'm sure there are more effective ways to build a relationship with these...
I maybe completely wrong, but I don't think there is a such a thing as a "top 15" in recruiting ... when you have a top 3, 5 etc ... to me, you do some research on school, have understanding of...
@Shai McKenzie_
Got offered by Georgia & Oklahoma tonight! Do I deserve a 5* yet *#Rivals
@ShaiMcKenzie_
My top 15 GA, Tenn, V Tech, FSU, Pitt, OU, GT, Mich, Mich St., WVU, UNC, Vandy, Wisc,...
I think its a good idea. New recruiting coordinator for texas looks to be doing the job. I wish OU would take the lead in finding new ways to make their recruiting efforts more effective. Again, we...
Players need to play ... if the writing on the wall says your gonna be on the bench for your career ... what's the big deal if he transfers? Especially true at the QB position where you don't usually...
need to call Bar Rescue ... that dude will straighten their **** out.
Roy Williams ... greatest play I've ever seen was the OU/tx game superman play.
totally agree ... hope jaz has a great breakout season this year.
I hope we get this guy. There are a lot of running backs out there but having the Bishop Gorman pipeline open up again is huge.
Stoops is a great recruiter but heads up Meso .. top 25 really doesn't mean much unless we have 2 or 3 coaches in that group. OU finished in the "top 25" this year in both team final ranking and...
your right ... my mistake.
I think you're asking a great question here but we have to change our mindset about the word "push". Kids only feel pushed when they still have reservations, questions, or don't feel comfortable with...
correction ... stoops was recognized as one of the top recruiters in the Big 12, not nationally ... which isn't saying much since last year was one of the worst big 12 recruiting years in recent...
I disagree ... did you not see what big Mike Evans from atm did to OU's B12 cornerbacks? That kid was a huge freshman receiver and I think Cavil and this kid can be that type of player. Not every big...
If you continually accept the fact that what we have done the past few years is okay, then we will continue to be just that ... okay. I understand that its "only march" ... but if we are going to be...
and a few years before that, there was no twitter, and before that no facebook, and before that ... you get the point. times change. recruiting is a sales job. "informed decision" is important ......
I don't think atm is disappointed in their early commit problem. sure everyone has there decommits, but to think getting some early offers to get on board early and build momentum is a bad thing ......
so true .. both OU and ut have there best recruiter on this guy.
it seems like every year we spend a lot of time in chicago recruiting. Does anything ever pan out there or should we focus or recruiting efforts somewhere else?
great job ATL ... the grades were a little on the "homer" side as expected but the player analysis and evaluations I thought were spot on ... thanks again.
damn receivers now days are just sick fast ...
Mack says a lot of things that's full of BS. A'Shawn Robinson committed early but looked around all year. Mack and staff kissed his **** the whole time he took trips. Finally signed with Bama.
when did anyone say it was either/or ... believe it or not, there are black coaches out there that can do both ... so again for the brain dead ... its not either or .... we should be looking for...
Huh????? texas just recruited one of the best OL classes in the country. its the other positions where they sucked.
My first year coming to OU from Sacramento, I remember Gaddis had the sweet jerry curls dripping but remembered him being hurt i think ... anyhow, favorite crap era RB is James Allen ... absolutely...
same people probably think its ignorant/racist for black people to go to black churches, asians to hang out at asian community centers, etc. And also no one is saying that its ALL on skin color ......
What???????? Jaylon Smith 6'3 212, Mathew Thomson 6'3 205, Mike Mitchell 6'4 216 ... those are the top three OLB that came out this year. Unless this kids LOSES weight and/or gets shorter his senior...
we general do a good job in Kansas, hope some one continues to work on Braden Smith since kittles is gone.
got my graduate degree there .... loved arizona ... i sure as hell hope that Oklahoman's aren't
making fun of other cities.
embarrassing thing about this article is that our under paid coaches AREN'T getting stolen by other schools (minus coach V) the last few years. so what does that say ... maybe they were getting paid...
its not but nothing wrong with having another brother thats a great coach on the staff.
winning starts with recruiting .. if i was filling a position for DL ... and the rest of my staff was white ... I'd chose Crennel for the diversity. Might not make a difference with most kids ... but...
of course diversity helps and i don't think you understand the concept of "all other things being equal" ... you're examples are so far off. McCoy is from our back yard. Clowney knows crap about the...
so if we had an all white staff of great coaches competing with another big school with a diverse staff of great coaches (everything else being equal), you don't think we would be at a disadvantage?...
take example to the extreme: if you had a chance to pick one summer camp out of three ... 1) mostly indian camp, 2) mostly chinese camp, 3) mostly camp of your racist .. chances are you'd pic three....
Most coaches only have an x amount of time to spend with a recruit. Yes race does make a difference when it comes to building a relationship. Is it the only thing ... No ... but every piece of the...
oh so your one of those idiots that can tell preparedness and effort by the look on faces from the stands/tv in living room ... ooookaaaaaay ... conversation over.
not sure if you understand the big bowls concept ... the bigger the bowl, the better the team ... and yes that means better defenses too.
damn boomer ... you **** about not canning coaches and when we do ... you **** even more? wtf ....
Here's the thing ... firing people is always the easy thing to do in a business ... everyone...
so ridiculous ... you don't just go rushing into a hire if you're a team looking to win the title. who the hell cares what the returning players are thinking ... they're the ones that got the coaches...
I think this is a good thing for Stoops to actually go do a talent search ... see what's out there. Maybe Mangino is the best ... maybe he's not, never know until you evaluate the field.
can't you read ... it's the national "perception" ... perception is reality no mater what the facts are.
Sure we could have done better ... sure. but in the skill positions, i think we did great. guess what drum, Cody Thomas, Keith Ford, etc ... they had bama offers. not the greatest cl**** but not the...
don't think recruiting is over ... bound to be another nation sandal somewhere for us to pick up some players like Brown (hopefully a LB/DL) this time. I would say oregon but they don't play defense.
ever since you dropped your font size down, i've agreed with you a few more times. and this is one of those times. fat man can flat out coach; his coaching style is "in-your-face" and that's who he...
long time before season ... there's always hope for another big scandal from one of the schools so we can poach their players again (hopefully an LB or two).
thanks atlanta ... good job as always.
really excited about the cl**** from oklahoma this year. a lot of talent in state. always nice to see local kids succeed.
pink did you watch the games this year or just check box scores ... score board this year is data ... i graduated in finance not MIS. if you want hard data, find it yourself. i just post on what...
