Pigs are a vital part of the ecosystem. Let them stay.Is that a threat or a promise?
Well no doubt after a debacle 8-5 season there are prolly going to be heads rolling. But don't forget, Bob also let heads roll the 2 season previous as well when they won 10+ games. So you can't blame the demise of Heupel and Norvell simply on one bad season that led Bob to make a knee jerk reaction to keep people outside the program happy.
Bob Stoops has always had the status of he runs his program as he sees fit. The times things were out of his control were in situations of team discipline such as Jarboe or the Shannon situation where Boren reached directly into the process and enforced his will. But outside of situations like those, Boren and JoeC have let Bob run his program as he sees fit. So who exactly would Bob be answering to in regards to this "sacrificial lamb" theory?
So really the only explanation for Bob making heads roll after the 2014 season is he felt himself he needed to cut loose some dead weight that simply wasn't getting it done.
And I hope Heupel has a great run the rest of his career. But even if he goes on to be the hottest OC in the country, or eventually even becomes a great head coach in the same mold of Bob Stoops, it won't change anything in regards to what happened under his watch at OU. What he does from this day forward is completely independent from his OU experience. OU is a job he was fired from.
That's the thing....ST came back and refused to admit he was wrong. He continued to call people stupid who still felt Heupel being shown the door was the right call. Of course you make mention to ST that with that mentality he is indirectly saying Bob Stoops is stupid, then ST flips his lid. What's really sad is this board would have 10 times more respect for ST if he would just drop his prideful ego stroke and just admit he was wrong and Bob Stoops and the people he said were stupid were correct.
Exactly! Sometimes pride can be a bad thing. Everyone makes mistakes and no one is right all the time. However part of being a mature adult is admitting when you are wrong and even apologizing. Outside of a couple of his followers, he is no longer taking serious. Whatever rep he had as a knowledgeable poster has went down the gutter
Yankees, I like you. You're funny and a good Sooner, but please put a lid on the old story about ST. It has gotten old. Sorry, but I just can't take it anymore. As Archie Bunker once said, "Use a little of your horse's sense". Don't hate me.
Thank you and just ignore him. If you don't, it means you really like it.
Boomer, Yankees.
I absolutely agree with this. ST is on my ignore list and I will never look back.Thank you and just ignore him. If you don't, it means you really like it.
I have him on ignore but just read a couple of comments in order to keep up with the convo. I won't make that mistake again
From a poster that claims he put me on ignore because of "all the arguments he'd won against me." You couldn't make stuff like this up if you tried.
The programmers at Rivals got the "ignore" thing all wrong. When you click on "ignore" under a user's name, it should prohibit THEM from reading what you post. Think about how much fun that would be.
Your weekend has been very very negative. Coach bashing for lack of recruiting commits a key theme. An occasional positive thrown in, but way out of balance. And your accusations about Heupel distorted as usual. You got your wish. But you just will not shut up about it.
You sure you do not want to bash Josh for ineffective OLine recruiting a year after he left?
Okay...go back and reread the thread and see who was talking about Josh Heupel first. You and WNAS were debating about Heupel before I even got into the conversation, but you just go ahead and attempt to lay blame on me for bringing up Heupel. But in reality, if you want to tell someone to shut up about Heupel, start with yourself.
And if you think my posting is out of balance, well...that's like YOUR problem...not mine. That's not my concern to make sure Plaino is happy with what I post. But you are the one who decided to start a NEGATIVE thread about a kid decommitting from OU, so tell us genius which direction you thought this thread would take when you started it?? Or are you gonna sit there and actually say you figured people would show up and create a lovefest about the coaches and have a big ole circle jerk about how great and grand recruiting is going right now??
And I know you are being sarcastic about the Oline recruiting. But if you seriously think Heupel left OU with the QB position in great shape, then man you really do have issues, and quite frankly your stance about how much you know about football would be in SERIOUS trouble in regards to your reputation on this board.
Interesting idea.
About a year ago, I suggested a business requirement that would make use of some of the new Analytics being used by companies like Google.
When combined with the unbelievable amount of data that is accumulated and stored...without our knowledge in most cases...this software is scary. It has the ability to "learn" about us based on browsing habits, info entered by us including context, physical locations, and even determine "mood" and personality traits.
My suggested requirement was to send a small amount of current to the keyboard of a poster with a history of bashing coaches of Championship winning teams. The team responded that while such a requirement could be met, site sponsors would never go for it due to the amount of traffic these few posters generate on the message boards.
I then suggested they limit the requirement to those posters with a history of demonstrated character flaws regarding integrity and honesty that drive posters AWAY from message boards in droves. This clearly piqued their curiosity and they are analyzing data as we speak.
Since I'm apparently ignored by billybarkingwnasyank, someone should advise them to invest in some rubber gloves. I know, I know...but it's the right thing to do.

Nope, the programmers got the ignore thing all wrong that when you put someone on ignore they don't get amoebic dysentery.
Unfortunately no matter how brilliant Caesar is he knows he's got to feed the mob.

There are some posters here who post like they probably wear their underwear. Way. Past. The. Expiration. Date.
In "The Hobbit" series, "troll tossing" was somewhat sensitive, but allowed. Just sayin...

Yep, I was at one of those stand up comic places, the 'Chuckle house' or something like that.
The comic was talking about his worn out underwear...how it resembled 'dandelion spores'.
