No experience as a NCAA head coach or coordinator. Well, huh! Very successful Texas high school coach (4 State Championships). Coached at Baylor for the last 5 seasons and will take over the Red Raiders at the end of the season.

Gotta start somewhere. 👍 Good luck to him.
 
Head coaches come outta nowhere my man. Were you referring to Art or his son Kendall?
Art. I’m not criticizing the hire but I am surprised. Frankly I could give a rats ass who Texas Tech hires. It’s one of the those jumping off places or a dead end. Leach did a good job there but only won more than 9 games one time. Just not a school that is an annual problem for schools like OU. OU is going to have many more challenging seasons in the SEC.

No doubt about it. The transition to the sec has me a bit worried but I think we'll be fine. WE'RE OU!!!!


BOOMER!
 
BOOMER!! Hope you are right, Woody. Regardless, I like getting away from the 10 team Big 12. It’s a joke.
Make no mistake my man, we're venturing into uncharted territory. I'm nervous and confident at the same time though. Wanna learn how to swim? Jump into the deep water imo. 😉

Texas Tech is a bit of an anomaly to me. I know Lubbock is a "wasteland" to steal from Barkley, but is it any worse than Waco or Manhattan KS? Tech has never won a Big 12 championship. They join ISU, KS, and West Virginia. I'm sure the right coach that could do well there will bolt but it surprises me that TCU, Baptist-mafia, and KSU, can do what Tech could not.

My best friend lives in Lubbock. His wife is a dean of nursing at Texas Tech. I love both of them but living there is like looking out the window and only seeing telephone poles forever. You’re right. It’s a waste land.

Be happy for your friends. I'm sure they're happy.

Where do you live brother? My suggestion is git outta the house and travel some? Lubbock is one the purtyest places on god's green earth. They can't help it their football program sucks balls. 😁

He has great ties with other HS coaches and TT has to start winning, some of those recruiting battles against Baylor, TCU and OSU. I think this will help but he's never been a HC at the college level. I know he was the reason Baylor beat out TexASS on some prospects, with Herman. Even got a flip or two.

You are leaving because of $$$ only. Anything else that gets thrown out there is bs. You previous administration put your program in a heavily leveraged position financially, and the pandemic made it a desperate position. Did you wonder why the state of Oklahoma legislature voted unanimously on the move?

You'd best stick to farmin corn there hoss.
 
I would worry about Caleb if I were you. He faces the two best defenses in the B12 the last two weeks of the season. He has raw talent but is short on experience.
The Caleb effect has already been established brother. We run the table my man, straight to the playoff. 😁

If OU runs the table, they deserve the playoff. I don’t believe they will because I believe it is asking too much to play the 3 best teams on the schedule in the last three weeks of the season. OU just hasn’t played well enough in stretches this season to expect that.

You're getting carried away with this 3 best teams left on the schedule thing. Surely you know this?

Great.
As if politicians and the media haven't facilitated and increased divisiveness among us, we are also divided by the perceived academic worth of our universities.....from just a discussion about football ?
The division within our society has no boundaries.
