Lol Gaines slapped backboard

He got excited.

He got excited.

Cant get excited prematurely.

What the hell is coach effect lol. Probably one of those “analytics stats” where a coach with a 2-6 record is +5.

It’s simple. You get a +1 if you beat a team that has outrecruited you and a -1 for losing to a team you have outrecruited. Pruitt this year would be -2 this year losing to BYU and GaSt. The rest of our record has gone according to talent.

How about we don’t change our staff at all.

Why? Every organization should seek out continuous improvement.

If you’re standing still, you’re falling behind.

Gaines and Pons stood out tonight

 

[drvenner]

That is a lot but not all attrition is bad attrition. We are a prime example of that.

Yes, but how many of these were git shirts. Not many. Florida wanted to keep most of these guys.

- Simonton

"tapped" "gapping" "loose"

Is Simonton a journalist? That's some message board-level editing.

So more credence to recruiting sites? Must be good science.

Olivier too. Easy to see where the grant comparisons come from. Just needs some time

Pons has gotten alot better. Thought johnson did well also. Kent is a wasted scholarship, in my opinion.

Moves like him as well imo

Continuity and consistency are very good things. Especially for recruiting.

Change for the sake of change is pure effin stupidity

I’m just referring to your words:

Positive press doesn't do a lot but we can always use it. Basically as simple as "you're part of the solution or you're part of the problem"

It seems like propaganda is what many want from him. “Tweet positive stuff or be quiet.” That’s fine. Positive press is great. I’m just saying we don’t need to disparage everyone that is pulling a Travis Haney and looking at things from another angle. I prefer having at least one member of our media be unafraid to speak up.

Now, with that said, some of his tweets are obviously trolling.

I think most of us would like our local media to be fair and not falling all over themselves to show how unbiased they are by spinning everything as negative as possible so that they can get those twitter clicks.

Duke was my favorite team growing up as a child. I can’t be the only one. Got a good game tonight.

 

[drvenner]

Mauer will never play a game at UT. Ever. Proob me wrong

Don't be a proob.

 

[UTSuave’]

That would be so hilarious

It would definitely be a tennessee thing if it did.

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Wish we got blackshear

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

Duke was my favorite team growing up as a child. I can’t be the only one. Got a good game tonight.

F Rat Boy and Duke. Hate them immensely

 

[VolGee4]

It’s Minnesota. They are never gonna sniff being a top 25 program so winning all those game is big accomplishment. It’s not like you’re saying he did this at texas or Georgia or something.

Well, Illinois, Purdue, Maryland, and Rutgers are terrible. They got Rutgers from other division. They will probably lose 3 out of last 4. Nebraska will get better under Frost. Don’t know how else to say it.

 

[Cosmo Kramer]

Had the Popeyes Chicken Sandwich today. It was really good but it was still just a Chicken Sandwich

 

[nicksjuzunk]

100% convinced he has got every job he has ever gotten bc he’s Peyton Manning’s friend. Similar to buzz Peterson

I’m living in New York now and have to suffer through the Jets and Giants regional games weekly. Thanks Hank

 

[drvenner]

Pons has gotten alot better. Thought johnson did well also. Kent is a wasted scholarship, in my opinion.

Just curious how you can say someone is a wasted scholarship after one game against an inferior opponent.

Here's an article on why Bob Stoops came out of retirement to the take The XFL job in Texas. One of the reasons was the fact that it was less than 200 miles from Norman and he could still be around his kids who all attend OU and his son Drake plays football there.

Bob Stoops figured he wouldn't coach again. But several key factors led him back into football

If he does go to FSU, he must know that it's just a little over 200 miles from Norman
