Jeffrey Carter Would Have Had a Blast Today

He's going to Texas A&M -- shit school, shit choice, completely foolish.

But if he and his parents would have given OU a chance, they would have had an amazing time today in Norman with the coaching staff, thefellow recruits and the buzz that is Oklahomaright now. They would have gotten to know Riley -- not only the coach -- but the man, and they would have been blown away, especially if they dared to compare him to the other head coaches they've been dealing with.

It's a shame. Oklahoma is going to have a great team this year and even better teams in the very near future. He could have been part of -- maybe even been the key -- in them winning a national championship.

Without knowing his personal feelings, I got the sense Jeffrey wanted to visit today. I think the family was afraid they might get another flat tire and it would make them more tired and a they’d have to return money they’ve already spent..

In the end, Jeffrey probably would have trasferred from OU whether he visited Norman today or not. But he and his family missed out on a great time and a great weekend.

Monday Notes...(UPDATE: 3:08p)

UPDATE: 3:08p - I've had a few conversations that are the potential of some good news coming to the BBQ this weekend, one guy I'm told to keep a close eye on?

Last year's BBQ commitment Jeff Carter of Mansfield (Texas) Legacy.

And yes, I'm told it sounds like Oklahoma is now on board with taking one of the more diverse defensive backs in the 2019 class.

ORIGINAL:
So, you guys miss me?

No?

Well, I don't blame you,bang up job by @BPrzybylo, @Eddie_Rado, and @Carey Murdock last week.

At any rate, I am now tagging back in and wanted to offer some word I am hearing on Rivals100 2020 QB offer Bryce Young.

Almost immediately after today's announcement I got word that there were rumors swirling about a USC pledge.

I have thought the Trojans had a shot since talking to him, and others, in Atlanta so I went ahead and hit up a few sources.

The first response seemed to think I had taken up comedy on my week off - as he has seemed "close" (to committing to Oklahoma) ' as of late.

The more people I talk to the more uncertainty seems to abound but the thing that has stuck in my head is something we have discussed before, the reality that he has a lot of respect for Spencer Rattler and whether that might be enough to give USC an edge.

Honestly I can't help but wonder if Kyler Murray's situation helped get Rattler in early but hindered the pursuit of Young.

I have heard nothing definite but USC is definitely making a run that I wasn't expecting a few months ago.

Why does Kenneth Murray get the freshman pass?

He was out of position often. He took bad angles. He wasn’t a reliable tackler in the open field. He didn’t create turnovers.

How much can you blame on Mike (I blame everything on Mike BTW)?

I am honestly asking, why the love. I just don’t see the potential. To me he looks like a weight room warrior and that’s it.

Someone tell me in football words what you see. Don’t just say, he is a freshman, he will get better.

Safety in the Big12 is very tough but we know early on Tony Jefferson could tackle well. Some people have an instinct to locate the ball and get their, I don’t see it with Murray.

This is the longest stretch Oklahoma has gone without a championship...

This is the longest stretch in program history that the program has ever gone without winning a national championship. Let that sink in.

The longest stretch being 1956 (Bud) to 1974 (Barry) (18 years).

Having missed opportunities in 2003, 2004, 2008, 2016 and 2018. It seems kind of crazy given the career Stoops had from 1999-2017.

Wife is getting induced tomorrow....

so I'll be a daddy by this time tomorrow night.

Lots of emotions. Very different than I thought it would feel. Kinda strange that this evening at dinner I almost felt sick to my stomach and then I felt very indifferent moments later.

I guess in ways, it still doesn't seem real. But I imagine it will feel very real, very soon.

To all you dads out there, major kudos to you all. Pregnancy is a crazy 40 weeks!!!

Sooners losing Lampkin to NFL in surprise decision

So....

This time of year we always keep our ears to the ground expecting the unexpected. Well, we regret to inform you that the unexpected has happened.

The last couple of days we have heard that someone unexpected was going to declare for the NFL draft. After checking with sources inside the OU program we now know this is a legitimate situation.

We expected Orlando Brown and Mark Andrews to leave early for the NFL. We wondered if Rodney Anderson might not be someone who looked into it. But it turns out, he hasn't.

But we can now confirm that defensive tackle Du'Vonta Lampkin has informed the OU coaches that he intends to leave Oklahoma early and declare for the NFL draft.

We were told that a lot of people around the OU program had reached out to Lampkin to attempt to dissuade him from making this decision. But as of today, we were told that he has made the decision to forego the rest of his college eligibility and declare for the NFL Draft.

We're told that this decision has been finalized by Lampkin and he will not be returning to OU.

Obviously people inside the program are not behind this decision, but Lampkin has decided this is the best course of action for his career.

Devonte Lee and E.J. Smoot are the best two playmakers in 2018 Class for the State of Oklahoma

When I watch tape of all the the 2018 recruits out of the State of Oklahoma in such a deep class two kids really stood out with their play making ability. Devonte Lee and E.J. Smoot. Watch the film yourselves. It is no way Devonte Lee should have not got offered by a Oklahoma School. The kid is the true definition of beast mode. EJ Smoot is next level and his ceiling is so high it’s scary.
