Recruiting Forum Football Talk III

[InVOLuntary]

I still hate you.

Been a very busy few months for me. Then just found d out a couple of days ago my Mom has cancer. Not looking promising, but we are waiting to hear what options we have if any.

Man I hate to hear that. Hope better news is headed your way.

Paul

Chryst

I think Chryst, Fleck, Riley and Cristobal are all interesting.

Why would we want Shaw?

 

[hotcypress]

Also, isn't Paul Chryst like 6'7? lol

Offense guy, p5 experience, good recruiter, clean guy, etc.

His name popped into my head too. It's a really unentertaining brand of football, but the guy gets results.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I have been told that some folks at OU don't actually love Riley and many of them prefer Grinch. Tifwiw

I posted this earlier, but Stoops is hanging around that program, what if he is meddling like Fulmer and Riley wants out of his shadow?

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Lincoln Riley would be insane but there’s no way he’d leave OU unless it’s for the NFL.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Really? Who told you that? I'd love it to be true but need more reason to believe because I've never heard that before.

Even the guy who told me that isn't certain of it, but it is something that he was told. No idea if it's true.

He surely would’ve jumped to the NFL

 

[UTSuave’]

If our AD lands a whale, we are going to be the most obnoxious fanbase ever.

F@#$. Everybody.

MY.GOOOOOD WE ARE A SLEEPING GIANT GIVE US LANE!!!!!!! LETS B**CH SLAP THESE BETCHES...IM READY

 

[Nashvegas31]

Lol please stop naming Riley. It’s not even a chance. He wouldn’t come here and leave a title contending team next yr. he also is a NFL risk every yr. they are not going to stop coming for him and one day the right one will come along

 

[peerless98]

Does NCAA 14 count?

I think so

 

[tvolsfan]

Literally John Harbaugh would be more likely than Lincoln Riley

 

[RiotVol]

Why would Riley leave OU and come here? Campbell turned down Texas, he isn't coming here. Will Fickell? Idk, then that would be Tom Herman. I just don't see it with his reputation for dealing with people behind the scenes and the player revolt. Is he apologetic for that? Does he admit those issues and does he vow to be different here?

Money? Easier to recruit?He's still having to dip into the south a lot of to build a roster, and it hurts his ability to build a defense that can get him past the first round of the playoffs? Not having Bob Stoops around?

Oklahoma’s Lincoln Riley reportedly turned down Eagles’ head coaching job - nj.com

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

I'm not sure there are many off the table with White and if we're actually willing to throw the money around. I think White brings a lot of credibility and confidence that we didn't have before yesterday.

 

[Ashevolle]

I stepped away for 2 hours and ya'll have gone from Kiffin to Riley...... I knew I couldn't leave ya'll without a babysitter.

 

[vol81]

What if it's Fulmer?


Still feel the same?

I have a better chance of getting the job than he does.....
So I confidently say I will fully support the hire no matter what.

 

[GoBigOrangeUT]

Herm Edwards. Let’s ride

 

[tvolsfan]

Speaking of that, Doug Pederson would be more likely than Riley.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Maybe that plane is on it's way to Oxford to pick up Lebby...

Why would we want Shaw?

Yeah, I really wanted Shaw in 2013, still would have taken him in 2017, but it looks like he may be trapped in the 80's with his offensive approach. And really, as long as his teams play .500 ball, they will keep him at Stanford indefinitely, which is a pretty nice place to be if you make as much as he does.

I think this is the right take. I think they will look for stability and longevity over a "splash" hire though.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Lincoln Riley would be wild, but personally I think Matt Campbell would be the better hire. Campbell literally built Iowa State from nothing. Riley took over a Ferrari and just kept it moving.

I have concerns that Riley could fix our multitude of issues.

 

[windrider]

Guys if it’s not Kiffin resist the urge to criticize the hire. We have professional leadership and an A D that knows what he is doing. Whoever we hire deserves the full support of all of the fan base. We need the fan base’s response of positive energy to be off the charts.
Go Big Orange.

This. Some of us would be disappointed and that's ok, but not ok to criticize. We all need to get behind the new coach, whoever it is, give him our support, and wait for great things to happen.
