Oklahoma Sooners – Recruiting So Far

Posted by NateHeupel on March 17th, 2010 under Football

I was reading a thread on OUInsider whining about how a beat writer for a UT website seemed to favoring UT recruits. Get the hell out of here with that nonsense. Next, you're going to tell me that Oklahoma sports media coverage is slanted towards OU. While Ketchum's rankings seemed to be about as arbitrary as one could get, with musings as ridiculous as Jaxon Shipley being the #1 WR in

Things To Do While Not Watching OU in the NCAA Tourney

Posted by NateHeupel on March 15th, 2010 under Basketball

1) Fill out a bracket whilst weeping softly and saying "Damn you for leaving us, Sampson" to no one in particular

2) Recover a small bit of joy at pegging UT for a first round exit after you realize that this is a realistic possibility

3) Rewatch the Sun Bowl

4) Post overlong diatribes needling Huckleberry to come out of his slumber to debate the merits of Google and logic. 5) Follow football recruiting with

Masoli out for ‘10–Did Kelly make the strongest play?

Posted by NorthDallasSooner on March 13th, 2010 under Football

"Oregon quarterback Jeremiah Masoli was suspended Friday for the upcoming season by coach Chip Kelly after pleading guilty to second-degree burglary in the theft of a pair of laptops and a guitar from a campus fraternity. Masoli, who had been mentioned as a potential Heisman candidate, will remain on scholarship with the Ducks." ---ESPN Chip Kelly did say that Masoli does have his redshirt still available should he choose to use it. So, is this a

Metoyer Commits to OU and a Brief Commentary on Life

Posted by NateHeupel on March 12th, 2010 under Football

In these dark and desperate times, sometimes a little good news goes a long way. For example, my wife just had our first child, we haven't had sex in 5 weeks, and I just discovered that the two issues are entirely unrelated. Essentially, my existence is a combination of the worst parts of "GOB" Bluth and Michael Bluth. Where was I? Oh yeah, Trey Metoyer committed to OU. You can never

The Muschamp Rule Suspended For a Year

Posted by NateHeupel on March 9th, 2010 under Football

WWL writeup found here UT fan can breathe a deep sigh of relief as the NCAA put a one year hold on what has to be the most hilariously asinine rule proposed by the NCAA in the last 3 months. Yes, I chose that time frame on purpose. The "coach in waiting" rule that treats a head coach designate just like a head coach would've severely limited Muschamp's ability to recruit this spring. However,

Back in the Saddle: Spring Football

After a painfully long basketball season filled with shame, agony, and suffering (and that's just my life at home) where the only glimmers of hope are from the gymnastics and wrestling teams, spring football is finally upon us.

Metoyer Favoring OU

Posted by NateHeupel on February 12th, 2010 under Football

Good news already for 2011 recruiting before UT locks up the bulk of Texas talent over their next two Junior Days. Link to Scout Article Metoyer is reportedly visiting UT for their first Junior Day tomorrow, so we'll see if he holds out. I think he will, and he'd be a huge get. Scipio has described him as "Baby Crabtree". Word.

    Outstanding “around the horn” type article. Can’t believe it’s almost 6 months until college football. The “U” from ESPN, while fun was nothing more than a 90 minute commercial for the greatness of Miami football. It would have been better if someone, other than a fan, took a critical look at that

    Hearing nothing that leads me to believe Cory Joseph is on his way to save Barnes’ ‘offense’. Hope this staff is making some contingency plans.

  • Patrick Bateman commented on the blog post Texas Turns the Page   1 hour, 23 minutes ago

    Nickel,

    Yea, I think AB may move if he can get assurances he won’t slide past the teens. Going 25 or so is a much different story. I think he should probably come back if he’s in the mid-20’s but not having a clear vision of what the rookie salary scale might look like

  • GoHornsGo90 commented on the blog post Bradley or Hamilton?   1 hour, 31 minutes ago

    The great thing about Joseph is he is a hard worker and great defender, just like Avery. This means he won’t be in the dog house like JH and JBC were all season fro their terrible defense and effort. He is also a perfect pick and roll/pick and pop PG who is smart and always

  • GoHornsGo90 commented on the blog post Texas Turns the Page   1 hour, 36 minutes ago

    Don’t see Bradley as a kind of guy that goes through that kind of disappointment, sees how unprepared for the NBA he is, and goes to “get his” in the draft. Maybe Hamilton, but not AB.

  • dick commented on the blog post Texas Turns the Page   2 hours, 10 minutes ago

    we will be better than an 8 seed if all 3 of those come back. i’ll be adjusting my expectations accordingly which will make season much better

  • Nickel Rover commented on the blog post Texas Turns the Page   2 hours, 24 minutes ago

    Hmm, great article, more or less of the same subject I wrote on for today.
    I think we are in exact agreement that Bradley should probably go if his draft grade holds steady in the 15-25 range because he’ll probably not get a better contract if he waits but simply demonstrate his ceiling as a player.

    …but by conference play, we will HAVE to start Thompson if we want to optimize our potential.

    Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha!

    Pains me to hear that, as we all pined for Hamilton to start all season long (except ipowers, that is). What makes you think it will be different with a

    Basketball:

    Bradley or Hamilton? In an ideal world they are both back next season. Withought knowing how well they are responding to Barnes’ style or what kind of draft grade they are looking for it’s hard to project what they will do.

    Bradley has been listed as a mid-first round guy but I have trouble seeing it.

    Was pretty disappointed with OSU’s shitburger last night though. I’ve never seen Anderson so bad…almost looked hurt. 5-2 first round isn’t bad though.

    We really ought to get 4 team into the Sweet 16 though, with only Missouri having much of an excuse to not advance.

    This is a rumor at this point and not confirmed, so we’ll see.

    Texoz,

    As much as we need to find an identity on offense, we also need to address our defensive schemes. If JCB and JH are two big contributors and we play a 6′6″ guy at 4 and a foul prone freshman in the middle then we need to re-examine our principles on defense. We

  • dick commented on the blog post Second Round Bets   4 hours, 24 minutes ago

    I ended up going the other way and taking St Mary’s. Unfortunately, we’ve all become experts at basketball team collapses this year and Villanova’s collapse looks too familiar.

    I really like Washington today for the reasons you mentioned. I have them in my Calcutta too so I have a lot riding on them.
