    David Ubben ‏@davidubben Mack Brown survived Garrett Gilbert. He may not survive Kevin Sumlin. This latest run is big, big trouble for the Horns.

    A&M leaving (then winning games and a Heisman) and TCU coming is about the worst recipe Texas could have asked for on the recruiting trail.

    WR is a position I am totally unconcerned about. OL, DL, LB, and TE. We need more and better players at these spots to contend.

    We should have gone to the SEC. Can't beat the constant 24-7 advertising they get on ESPIN. Recruiting, ranking, heisman, etc. go hand in hand with all the constant hype.

    The hard-on for ATM on this board is disgusting. They won 10 games for the first time since 1998 and have three bowl wins since 1991. THREE! Calm down.

    I think yall were too scared of a national identity. Being seen as tu's foil was more important than being the national power you were in the Switzer years. Truly great programs have 2 or 3 nationally relevant games on their schedule year in and year out. Y'all were just too comfortable with dominating tu, and reaping those rewards over the last decade. The landscape has changed. I like OU a lot. Now that y'all are stuck in a terrible conference, I hope y'all start to schedule 2 premiere OOC opponents every year to bring back some glory. Nebraska/OU should be annual. Notre Dame, Florida State, USC, etc in a constant rotation.

    Allen? More like Knight(the guy that decommitted from A&M because he knew he wasn't as good as our third stringer)

    OU was comfortable dominating Texas, aTm, Osu, K-State and the rest of the Big12. They had the series overall lead against Nebraska, but it was always competitive. OU will continue to dominate. I see no reason for you to be concerned about it.

    Trevor Knight decommitted from Texas A&M because of Matt Davis. That isn't necessarily a bad thing, Trevor is supposedly a great guy, a bunch of my OU friend's think he is the real deal. But Matt, while possibly not the better QB, was the unquestioned leader of the recruiting cl****. Trevor would have walked in to a situation where he would have never had the locker room on his side. It wasn't he right situation for him. I wish him the best, and hope he beats tu like a drum if he ever gets the start.

    ok..so knight comes here with LJ, Allen, Bell, and Thompson? it is stuff like this that makes A&M look like dip ****s. but you can spin it to say why you will take our RB that transferred....spin that one and tell me a positive...I have my version.

    I don't know what I said that was so negative, Knight is a great player. No need to get hyper defensive if someone implies that a player ever commits with anything other than an dying burning desire to play for OU as a junior in high school.

    so saying...knight did not come to A&M because he knew he was not better than the 3rd string QB on the roster...that is not negative? I dont know how good knight is....but I question if that was the reason he decommitted from A&M when our QB depth is DEEP with talent...that is my point.

    I specifically said he might have been better than Matt Davis, even though Matt had a better offer list and was rated higher by most services(heavily sought by OU as well). I didn't even have to admit to that much. Trevor's decommittment from A&M had more to do with Matt's relationship with the fellow A&M recruiting cl****, and the leadership and buzz he was creating. Get your panties out of a wad.

    I knew that was going to be your reply. SEC in action: play 9 bad teams (like 2 FCS teams!), be highly rated, everyone beats each other and is top 10.

    Why did he have to decommit then? If this was the case why waste a scholly?

    I'm sorry if a conference full of 5 10 win teams is more impressive than a conference full of 5 7 win teams. Not my fault the SEC is top to bottom better than the Big 12.

    Don't flatter your self about Matt Davis. It was Kiel's all along. When he went somewhere else OU threw out tons of offers. Reevaluated and went hard after knight. The fact that you think you know more about OU's recruiting then every OU fan on this board is laughable. Run along and celebrate your average 10 win season.

    Waste a scholly? What? Trevor committed to A&M with an OU offer, Matt Davis(also with an OU offer) committed a short time later, a few months later Trevor committed to Oklahoma. What the hell are you talking about? Both programs would have gladly taken both QBs.

    I do know that OU continued to go after Matt Davis extremely hard well in to his senior year, which is well after both committed. So what is your point?

    So they wanted Matt Davis more than Gunner Kiel? Is that what your trying to say? Because Gunner Kiel was still into play at that point. We wanted Gunner Kiel first and foremost. After Gunner kiel moved on OU coahes re evaluated and found out the #1 choice for their offense was Knight.

    Not to defend tejas but the whorns have 14 commitments and they sit at #11....4 spots behind aTm and their #7 ranked 34 player cl****.

    I don't know what you're saying. Knight committed in the summer. OU was still recruiting Matt Davis at the end of his senior year. If OU had made the decision that Trevor was better than Matt, so be it. I have never made that claim, and have stated Trevor might be better, but the OU staff, as well as the A&M staff, would have taken both.

    I see. What I am telling you is after they got the word Gunner Kiel was ruling out OU, their second choice was Trevor Knight. I dont care what you say. OU does not recruit 2 qb's in one cl**** and they do not pull offers from recruits already committed. So to say that they recruited Matt Davis after Knight committed is false. They may have stayed in touch but to say they would've taken matt Davis if he wanted to come late in the process is purely speculation based on nothing at all.

    Other than Matt's comments, you're right. I don't know if they would have taken Matt as well.

    Something stinks in college station, SEC style. Their edge? $$$$. players with their hands out and a&m is happy to oblige. If there's a change at a&m, it's that they've decided win at all costs is ok and they're going all in on the SEC cheat to win mantra.

    Except [B]low U did recruit him and offered a scholarship. Check your facts son.

    The more big time recruits that go to A&M, the less that go to the Sooners. The tides are turning. As the seasons go on nothing about Oklahoma will get top recruits there. Oklahoma will fall further and further down the totem pole.
