If you ever (for the rest of time) are curious about where things stand with the big time recruit or portal offer OU is chasing as their decision approaches, just re-read a screenshot of this:
OU is the clear leader, IF it were up to the player himself and if the decision was based solely on his relationships with the OU coaches and his future teammates. The player also knows that OU gives him the best chance of developing into a high NFL draft pick. Whether or not the player is ready to face the challenges and demands at OU, we'll know very soon.
Unfortunately, there are some elements close to the player who are more concerned about short-term NIL money, and OU is too principled to disrupt the locker room by getting into an undignified bidding war. Also, if OU really wanted to, they definitely have the NIL money available.
Even if the player is coerced by the rouge insiders around him to choose Big NIL Money School X, don't count OU out in the long-term!
Did I miss anything??
