Today is the day we have all been waiting for. Coming 2 America drops on Amazon Prime and I couldn't be more pumped.

If you already watched it (I think it technically came out last night), don't give any spoilers, assholes.

"It's time for you to put the foot down and make it perfectly clear that the heritage of Texas will not be lost," wrote another donor who graduated in 1986. Their name was also redacted by UT-Austin. "It is sad that it is offending the blacks. As I said before the blacks are free and it's time for them to move on to another state where everything is in their favor."


That quote sounds like it came straight from 1863.

Login to view embedded media Twitter thread got me thinking who has the best/coolest name in OU football history.
I’ll go first: CJ Ah You

EDIT: Yep, LSU is definitely in play as well. Now Kendal Daniels himself confirms he has been released from the NLI.

Let the games begin (again). Source confirms Kendal Daniels has been released from his National Letter of Intent with Texas A&M. Look for OU and OSU to make a strong charge. And LSU will re-enter the picture.

I gave my insight into the situation earlier today (ha, talk about bad timing).

And we kick this series off as well this week, starting with NRK.

This one hit Carey pretty hard this morning.

Saw this thread on Twitter and thought it would be fun to bring to the board.

What is the worst sports venue you have visited? It has to be collegiate or professional level.

Couple that come to mind:

Old Kyle Field (A&M)
Cotton Bowl (pre-renovation)
Floyd Casey Stadium (Old Baylor Stadium)
Astrodome (pains me to say as an Astros fan but Minute Maid Field was an absolute necessity)
Superdome

Dude was an amazing drummer.

Yea..late to the party on this one. Three Ep’s in and not sure how I feel about this show. Stick with it or jump?

Guys, been checking around and it sounds as though Oklahoma and Big Kat Bryant may have finall hit a breaking point. I won't pretend I have the particulars on all of it - I'm still playing catch up on some of it but the bottom line is that I do not expect the Sooners and Bryant to happen as things currently stand.

The transfer portal giveth and the transfer portal taketh away.

I know there is another thread on this subject - primarily for our Tx folks. I wanted to give everyone in Ok a heads up too:

Anybody know what’s going on in Austin? UT coaches are all tweeting the same thing right now.

Oklahoma's class of 2022 already has four elite offensive commitments, is it on pace to exceed all OU classes before it?

Farrell’s take: FACT. It’s a tough call between Florida and Oklahoma for me but with their home-state advantage I feel that the Gators should have done more. They whiffed down the stretch on numerous key players and losing
Terrion Arnold(I don’t buy that he was dropped) was the cherry on the top. Yes Oklahoma missed on some huge names but many were out of state.

Gorney’s take: FICTION. Florida had a higher-ranked recruiting class than Oklahoma and despite finishing with an impressive three five-stars, it could have been wildly better for the Sooners down the stretch. Oklahoma missed out on five-stars
Emeka Egbuka,
Bryce Foster,
Tristan Leighand
Camar Wheaton. For a while, it didn’t feel like a stretch that Foster, Leigh and Wheaton would end up in the class. To win national championships, closing down the stretch is huge and the Sooners didn’t get it done in 2021, although the class is still very strong.

What are some of you all’s favorites? Excluding OU. I really do enjoy OU’s campus.

Some of mine are:
1. Pepperdine
2. UCLA
3. Notre Dame
4. Brown
5. Washington
6. Dartmouth
7. Harvard
8. Tennessee
9. Kansas
10. Wisconsin

Not Josh’s prediction. FYI

My son is on a group chat with Weigman and a bunch of other 2021 and 2022 athletes. Word is Weigman is now heavily leaning to the Aggies and has made comments about committing soon even.

He also played with and knows LJ (who is also in the chat) and he most likely goes to the Aggies too.

Take all this for what it is....a teenager passing on gossip, but it seems like a pretty decent source to me.

Was going to start Scoop with this but from one of my sources, it won't wait and as I've said, Scoop is going to have to for a little bit here...

So there’s no place to start other than the rumors swirling around Auburn transfer Big Kat Bryant.

It’s funny, on Wednesday it felt like the odds were slipping for Oklahoma and Bryant but almost from the moment it became clear that Tennessee, under Josh Heupel, would not be retaining Kevin Steele after just a few weeks on the job as the Vols defensive coordinator it felt like the wheels began to turn quickly.

To the point that Scoop got a heads up on Thursday afternoon that looked a lot like the GIF that Jamar Cain has made quite popular in Sooner recruiting circles.

So as Scoop checked around on Friday morning to see what movement had been made there was a simple reply to one of his questions about Bryant.

“Soon.”

So, I think it’s safe to say there is some confidence around Norman that Oklahoma will be bringing in it’s fourth former SEC player in the matter of a few weeks and should be doing so perhaps at some point today or through the weekend.

I'm told that Tennessee transfer Eric Gray is going to choose Oklahoma shortly.

That's the rumor.

I'm starting to feel kind of bad for them.

Josh Norman? Hard to compare with our more recent at the position. Unique skillset. Same number, ironically. Brandon Daniels, maybe.

Players are often designated as athletes in recruiting but Billy Bowman truly could shine at multiple spots for Oklahoma.

Mods, time to share what you know on the portal guys that OU has interest in. Plus make Grimlock a mod as he does a pretty good job of sharing info. There are my two requests for the day. Thanks!

Switzer was a great recruiter hands down. Riley I think is really well. In fact Riley is even better than stoops IMO. Now with the portal, I could see Switzer having a hay day with it. What do you all think?
