The Sooners made a late push at OSU’s committed quarterback.
I guess NOT making a change at OC really has reshaped the thinking of future players…especially QBS!! Nice job MG!!
It’s wild how I really cannot bring myself to care what happens with signing day until we get some kind of indication of what’s going to happen with the staff. Truly does not matter where this guy goes if we run it back with the same staff. Probably a smart move for him considering that OU has a real OC now.
Hurts my heart to say this, but I don’t blame him one bit. And by the way, we have heard out of OSU football since the Colorado game the exact same thing I predicted we would hear: deafening silence. Absolutely nothing. Saw that coming.
We deserve this and can only blame ourselves.
Considering this kid doesn’t understand what a commitment means, even if he had ended up here he more than likely would have left prior to playing any meaningful snaps. Thus, we didn’t waste time, resources or money developing him only to see him transfer down the road.
App State to O-State to OU.
He’s like a ping pong ball in a wind tunnel. If he can’t stay hitched, how can he stay in the pocket?
Good luck, goodbye, good riddance.
Good grief, some of you people who are criticizing this kid for changing his mind are laughable. Ask yourself if you would stick to OSU with all that’s going on? Does the offensive coordinator inspire confidence in you? Do you think Stillwater would be the best place for your future right now? The answer, if you are honest, is a resounding no. That’s why the lack of making any changes will be the downfall of the Pokes.
Blah blah blah…
He’ll be back in the portal in 12 months.
McNamara from Iowa just entered the portal and is looking for his 7th year. Would be a perfect get for Gundy. Can’t be more experienced than a 7 year guy.
Yea….keep convincing yourself .
If we don’t start the season with Flores in 2025 I’m going to lose my chit.
I’m fine with Smith or Rangel too, Smith is going to be special. Especially with Smith if we are going to go through complete rebuild mode. Big Arm and very mobile, he had 19 offers with big time teams. Rangel is athletic enough and with Ollie Gordon that game gave me hope. As long as Bowman doesn’t get a 8th year lol I’m happy with who ever.
Smith or Flores. Hard to see what each possessed when the HC waits 10 games before putting them on the field. All I know is I don’t want another QB that has the speed of a tortoise and can’t possess the ability to move around the pocket. I’d rather have Aso Pogi back there than having to suffer a third season with Bowman taking the snaps for the 2025 season.
Jackson Arnold just entered portal.
Steal from me, I can steal from you.
Yeah…cause Gavin Freeman worked out so well this year. /s.
I actually think Freeman will work out.
I really hope he does. He was explosive in limited opportunities with OU. Maybe with the right QB and OC he can shine here.
6 hours, dude. I’m not surprised the powers that be waited until signing day was done. It’s not like telling commits that they’re firing the guy that’s been recruiting them for months is going to convince them to sign. Unless we know who the replacement will be and they’re an exciting name? Again, I wouldn’t be surprised if we have an idea who the replacements will be, as big money makes such “pharmaceutical transactions” commonplace. Will it be a hire to be excited about? At this point I’d take mediocre because this year has been a train full of flaming dumpsters driving off a cliff into the world’s biggest fail boat.
