Those OU football players getting wrecked is awesome. You can tell those guys are trying not to react and stay calm until they escalate it and push them. You poke the bear, you have deal with the consequences. I don’t care if they rearranged their faces, you picked the fight and that is on you. Those guys just defended themselves. Anyone who thinks they should get in trouble is what is wrong with America today.

It has something to do with McDonald's I believe.

I mean seriously, I know parents travel all over to watch their kids,I know I would but unless you have a trade or some type of job where you work from home or the company you work for lets you transfer, packing up and moving the whole family all the way to the other side of the country to watch your kid play football 4 months a year that is serious stuff. I think Tua's family did the same thing and I wonder if they live in Miami or Maryland now following his brother ? It just seems odd to me for some reason.

If we get into a fight in Kroger it's still assault and in a public place regardless. Both parties are at fault because neither of us in your made-up scenery prevented the fight from happening.

I wouldn't shove you in a public setting or threaten you though, that's "my logic" that you seemed to have missed. I get it though, you like to fight and see no issue with throwing down over spilled dollar pints. That's fine, do you don't project your beliefs on anyone else as it being "right" or "wrong" though since it's just your opinion on the matter. In a court of law both parties could face charges, that's the only thing I'm pointing out. Guy who swung first or guy who got hit if either presses charges then both are liable for consequences for their involvement in the altercation, pointing that out isn't some invitation to lecture about what's "manly" or not in the situation.

You'll also notice I didn't even use the word wrong in my comment, and I put right in quotations for a reason. Right & Wrong is skewed person to person. It's why rulings are called judgements, since depending on who hears the case the verdict may not be the same. I never even mentioned punishment man, I said all four of those grown ass men are responsible for their actions.

J-Rob will probably make Wilson pay for his BS. Worse signing of any type he's made as Titan's GM.

I would not spend 2 seconds on Henry T. He left and is not going to classes on campus or working out with his teammates. So he's any not different than a HS kid earning college credits at home IMO. If he came back he would have to earn a position just like any incoming freshman in my book. What I saw last year would get him a spot on the bench or ST. Add in his dad's negative attitude. Move on.

Morris is a wannabe and appears lazy. Nothing lost. J-Johnson is mediocre on a good day. Nothing lost. Eric Gray was a 2 tool player - running and receiving. He was a minus at blocking. Good, non-dominating player. He will be forgotten by mid-season. Key - who knows? Probably the one with the most upside that Cornbread hid almost all season.

You mean, tougher than 3-7, allowing the oppositions defense to score more than our offense, not being able to get lined up correctly, and a "coaching staff" that couldn't handle properly cheating let alone play calling? I doubt it.

This isn't directed at you specifically Jave, I just get sick and tired of the negativity surrounding our program. Will next year be rough? Maybe. Fact of the matter is we have no idea. And while I'd like to believe that the players who are choosing to leave might help, again other than Eric Gray, you could argue no one that has left or will leave is doing so while playing to their fullest potential, or that they're leaving us with zero depth behind them.

A lot of top talent and top potential is leaving. If 4 of the top 10 in the portal are ours, that's painful, even if they were depth players instead of starters. With the 25 signee limit it hurts to lose so many to the portal.

I'm not saying I'd trade that situation for Pruitt, but it's going to be a rough year with such a depleted roster.

Our program has been bad for over a decade, it's kind of expected that there would be a lot of negativity.

I hear you though, we don't know what possible pleasant surprises JH has in store for us, so we can be hopeful for that.

No clue how people do that. I guess Tua came from money?

I can see it now if HT goes to Bama, they pull a James Franklin when he left Vandy and use a Alabama bus and tractor trailer to move. When Franklin used the Penn St. truck that spoke volumes about Franklin....we dodge a bullet with that clown no matter what how good he may be.

Besides inside linebacker and cornerback.... we are not that depleted at all.
