Instant Recap: Oklahoma State Drops Big 12 Opener to Utah, 22-19

Did you not watch the first half of the games before this one?

This is on Gundy for retaining the most incompetent and overrated OC and OL coaches in the nation.

I don’t see what the difference would be. It’s obvious he’s not helping solve anything now.

That’s your opinion, I have mine

The run game was bad today because they abandoned the run. Utah stuck with it. We didn’t. When their backs got stuffed or had short gains, they kept handing it off and it evens out. Ollie had a couple of nice runs, but the minute he carries for fewer than 4 yards, we back off of the run for the next seven plays. There was no reason to give up on the ground game like we did.

So what you’re telling me is that Dunn is incompetent and inconsistent?

Lets be honest the whole offense was bad, no super bad, that’s the issue

Hey champ,

See, this is the problem. You have to take everything to 11. Chill out. He screwed up by not running the ball. That doesn’t mean he has to be the anti-Christ and the source of all woes.

Most sensible comment I’ve seen today. This is what I was feeling too… And yes, that’s on Dunn. He is a WR coach so it makes sense that he would be a ā€œpass first and ask questions laterā€ guy, but he’s got to be better than this.

This loss is on Gundy!!! Pulling Bowman was incredibly stupid! Truly there are no words to describe the stupidity.

Also agree, Dickey & Dunn should be gone before Monday!!!

So the players are golden? Give me a break.

He screws up all the time:

  • 77 yards of offense and 0 points against Arkansas (first half) and won the turnover battle 3-1.

  • 119 yards of offense and 3 points against Utah (first half) and won the turnover battle 3-2.

  • Returns his entire offensive production and still can’t do chit

The issue is that you’re in denial that he’s one of the huge problems that handicaps our offense, and it’s been obvious since he’s been the OC. He was also a huge reason we didn’t win our second conference title. The dude is a hack as an OC and always will be. I’ll say it again……one of the most, if not the most overrated, overpaid, and incompetent OC in the country.

Jeff said it best ā€œHow do you get worse with the same teamā€?

You don’t come on here because you don’t like hearing reality.

Hey champ,

How do you get worse? People get film on you and adjust. People have been thinking about playing us all offseason. He should be thinking ahead and trying to counter their counters or, at the very least, adjusting after the fact.

You see this at all levels, though. You’ll have NFL offenses be prolific and then drop off the next year. It’s a constantly evolving cat and mouse.

How do you stay worse? You don’t make any adjustments throughout the season knowing you have a problem. You also don’t hardly make any adjustments at the half today as Rashaun Woods stated. As AR stated earlier ā€œCoaching mattersā€. Didn’t seem to affect us from 2010 to 2011. So NOW it has to be an issue.

One that Dunn hasn’t adjusted to in 5 years. He needs to be gone or demote himself. We need a solid G5 OC. The only way this team will ever come close to winning the conference is if Gundy gets an excellent OC or DC hire. He has neither right now. The defense (for how bad they’ve been) actually played well enough to win. Then Dunn just totally screws them over. Gundy should be apologizing to the fan base for trying to shove a turd sandwich down their throats.

Then how do teams stay good? Lol. Can’t buy that for a dollar.

Hey champ,

You either recruit exceptional talent or you innovate. I already stated that we didn’t do enough to innovate in the offseason. I swear, you guys act like you’re getting some ā€œgotchaā€ in. I’m just making objective statements and since the sky isn’t falling, you think I’m some kind of apologist. Obviously, the team didn’t do a good enough job. That doesn’t mean everyone and everything was terrible. Why are our fans the worst, but not bad enough to just go away if they hate everything they see?

You are absolutely right. The only solution these guys ever have is fire everybody. Well OU fired Josh Hueple how is that working out? Nebraska fired Frank Solich after going 10-3, and the next year they went 5-6. Corrections need to be made, and at the end of the year if they aren’t then maybe there is need for staff change. Nobody is going to fire an OC after a 3 point loss to the team that is picked to win the conference.

To be fair, I understand OU wants to fire everyone. I saw this little Nebraska gem today:

Like, the OC’s not getting fired in week 4. If he did, it would be because the season is lost, and you aren’t hiring anyone in September, so we’d just be interim promoting an internal coach that they also probably hate or would by season’s end.
