@Josh_M There might be enough here for a condensed, on-going discussion. There’s like a dozen somewhat related threads on here so clearly the hottest topic on people’s minds. Feel free to hijack and take it forward...
In all honesty, aren’t you a bit overwhelmed by the sheer volume of the exodus on the defensive side of the ball (through the portal)? I can’t imagine there is more upheaval at any other school, over such a short period of time.
Are you hearing any reactions with your peers at Rivals? Is there any “undercurrent” on what’s happening here from other schools? I.e negative recruiting. I’m frankly surprised more has not been made nationally of our situation. Can we assume all incoming freshman are now likely to be called on to play this year, regardless of readiness? Are you hearing any portal names from our staff that make sense for OU, as I can’t imagine we will even be able to field a two deep on defense for Spring Drills? I know the portal is a new and evolving phenomenon but are you sensing any panic among the coaching staff?
