- 0:25Was it good? Everybody Happy Sunday? I know we pushed everything back a
- 0:28little bit, but welcome to Sooner or Later Sports Show. I am your
- 0:32host, Jay. Thank you all for pulling up here on the YouTube channel
- 0:37and listening to us. Whoever podcasts are downloaded and listen to. We appreciate
- 0:41a love support. We got a lot of stuff to talk about and a
- 0:44lot of stuff to celebrate because why, we had some good stuff happened over
- 0:50the last few days, right, We had a commitment that just popped up.
- 0:53We had some guys tratched to the NFL Draft, so you of course
- 0:56you know who's gonna be here with me. It's gonna be me and Coop.
- 0:58We have some stuff to talk about. Coop Happy Sunday, Man,
- 1:02what's going on? What's going on? Yeah? No, this was a
- 1:04good, good sports week. Thunder continue to roll too, So yeah,
- 1:10there's a lot to be happy about right now. Yep, Monday night,
- 1:14it looks like the Thunder's gonna pull off a suite post likely, so we'll
- 1:17cross our fingers and toes on that one. So if you are a hoop
- 1:19fan, I'm eventually gonna get my my NBA podcast going, you know,
- 1:26I'll start working on that. Bring back the original Unfair Sports show basically,
- 1:30you know, bring back all of that and expand it to all the big
- 1:32stuff in the big headline. So we've got a lot to talk about today,
- 1:36right as y'all saw when I posted in here, we've got hold.
- 1:42Second, I'm about to kick PG out of here. Where is he?
- 1:47Let me kick him out of the show. Yeah, because the last thing
- 1:49I will ever accept is someone thinking that they're better than me at Mario Kart
- 1:55like that's that level of disrespect will not be tolerated in my in my chat
- 2:00room. So don't ever do that or whatnot. So Stephen, thank you
- 2:06for that pointing that out. Yes, yeah, prayers up. Everybody was
- 2:08impacted by the storms. There were a lot of them, and so Fur
- 2:12was hit hard, the old western part of Norman was hit. So prayers
- 2:16up. Hopefully the recruits understand that, you know, mother nature happens here
- 2:20every so often and unfortunately we have to deal with it, and so hope
- 2:23they're good and safe and calm. While at the same time, yeah,
- 2:28and shere hundredsent right, sharing is caring, so all of that, but
- 2:34yeah, say a prayer for them, give them some of your love and
- 2:37attention or whatnot. But we got a lot to talk about. First and
- 2:39foremost, we had a commitment. And yeah, PG, don't ever disrespect
- 2:45me when it comes to talk about Mario Karl like that. Ever. Again,
- 2:49we don't tolerate that type of ridiculousness here. And we'll dive into commitment.
- 2:54That just popped up. Courtland Guillery. Huge pick up for the Sooners
- 3:00as we beat out the competition our boys. Texas was really wanting to kid.
- 3:05We beat them out for him. And then of course we've got the
- 3:10players that got drafted. We had three guys drafted. Coop, Let's start
- 3:14off with the draft. I think the draft will probably be the best conversation
- 3:16starter. We'll go into Courtland and his commitment, and we'll talk about a
- 3:22couple of the players that we're looking at, you know, one that everybody
- 3:25wants to keep talking about, and unfortunately I hate talking about them because it's
- 3:30not Wednesday. If it was Wednesday, I would gladly talk about him,
- 3:32but it ain't Wednesday, so I don't like talking about them. Let's talk
- 3:37about that NFL draft. Tyler Goydon number one first round draft pick, Baby
- 3:43gets picked at what's at twenty ninth by the Cowboys. So he stays close
- 3:46to the crib because he's from Texas. If I'm correct, I know he
- 3:50played at TCU. It's from Texas. Stays close to the crib. That's
- 3:53huge. And he of course you can drive up to Norman all the time
- 3:55and do recruiting events and he'll be at Red River if they're not in a
- 3:59road game. How'd you feel about that, man? Uh? I mean
- 4:02that was great because whenever we have, you know, the local kids that
- 4:06we want to uh see go to teams. You know, you start when
- 4:10it's offensive line. You know that there's a lot of coaches in the NFL
- 4:13right now who are super enamored with any Bill beat and Boat products, and
- 4:18so you know Guiden, Uh, Guiden was one that we thought that he
- 4:24might slide himself further and further up the draft, and but he stuck it
- 4:29out. He's just got so much raw athletic talent. Cowboys are in need
- 4:33of offensive line help. So uh, it's it's a it's a good go
- 4:38because again you can kind of watch him. Uh. You know, there's
- 4:41a lot of a lot of people who it's a nice freeze up by Coop
- 4:49mids myself. Yeah, mid sentence, we lost Coop. That's always fun,
- 4:55right, He'll be back in just a minute, I promise U.
- 5:00There he is, speak of the Coop. Hey, sorry about that.
- 5:03Yeah, yeah, I know you're breaking in a new computer, right,
- 5:06Uh no, it's something something's going on with my computer. It's wonky.
- 5:11But but yeah, it's it's good Bill being Bow getting another person in and
- 5:16you know, seeing a couple of the free agent pickups. You know,
- 5:19a couple more of his guys were put on teams that once again with the
- 5:24some of the offensive line, you know, enamoring that people have for Bill
- 5:29being Bow is great. So don't ever forget that because people do believe that
- 5:33his products are going to show up and ready to go. Yeah, exactly.
- 5:38That's the best part about having a guy named Bill beating Bow who does
- 5:42a really good job of not only recruiting but also a really good job of
- 5:46developing talent. Right, I mean guy in one of my first videos that
- 5:48I made, if you watch the video when I talked about him as a
- 5:50first rounder, put a link in there. One of the first videos I
- 5:55made really for this channel and doing ou content and yeah, I thought that
- 6:00he had potential to be a first rounder or potential to do something special at
- 6:04that point. Then I had a thought that he was gonna be potential first
- 6:09rounder once the season started, because that's kind of basically where he's at right
- 6:15He's in a position where you know, one of his need but like you
- 6:18said, he's very athletic and it looks like it kids special, So you
- 6:24got him. Walter Routs also gets drafted, which is huge, goes to
- 6:28the Vikings' was that sixth round. And I think the shocking thing with him
- 6:32is is that, I mean, as smart of a guy as he is,
- 6:34is always funny to see if he actually end up going pro. It's
- 6:38kind of like the Josh Dobbs situation for me. You know, the former
- 6:42quarterback for Tennessee who's also an astrophysicist or whatever the heck he does rocket science.
- 6:46He literally a rocket scientist, and you would think he'd be at NASA,
- 6:50And it's funny because him, I think I feel like Rouse's parents would
- 6:57be similar to the way Josh Dobbs's parents are. When Josh Dobbs' parents are
- 6:59shown on the television at games, especially when he was at Minnesota making that
- 7:02run this past season. They looked completely unimpressed with what was going on.
- 7:06They looked like they were like, why are you playing in the NFL?
- 7:10Why aren't you at NASA? And it just cracks me up every time.
- 7:14It's all wonder if Walter's parents are similar to that. But he goes six
- 7:17round to the Vikings, another Bill beaten Bow pick up, and as you
- 7:20mentioned, you had Andrew Rain. They got picked up as a free agent
- 7:25signing. You can't beat that, right, And I think Rain's gonna actually
- 7:29last because he went to the Panthers and they don't have a center like their
- 7:32entire interiors boo boo. So there's a good chance that Rain sticks it out,
- 7:39even though a lot of people really felt like he should have stayed another
- 7:42year. If he just goes and sticks it out with the Panthers, I
- 7:46think he'll be fine. So then you had defensive tackles. You know,
- 7:49you got Todd Base had the opportunity to wave his flag to his own little
- 7:55horn. He got Jono La Lulu drafted to the Colts in the seventh round,
- 8:01and then Isaiah co signed a free agency contract with them also, And
- 8:07so it's funny because Bates was rocking. He in his video today on on
- 8:13the Bird app he was rocking a La Lulu Jersey heading out to California to
- 8:18go recruit some boys. Yep, pretty nice flecks, right. I got
- 8:22a guy drafted that came to me for a year. Yep, that was
- 8:26a linebacker. Was a linebacker, Yeah, exactly, he got walked in.
- 8:31He got to do draft. So cool man, when you look at
- 8:33it, we did. Our streak did get broken, unfortunately, of four
- 8:39players getting drafted per draft, and there's reasons. We'll talk about that in
- 8:45a moment, But how'd you feel about the players that ended up getting picked
- 8:48up? Well, again, you know, you got Drake Stoops also went
- 8:54to the Rams, mkay. Mattire went to the Chiefs. So you know,
- 8:58we knew that this was gonna be a little bit of an issue.
- 9:03You know. Jonah Delile, he measured off the charts at the Pro day
- 9:07and and so he he bawled out there and he got himself drafted. So
- 9:13yeah, the streak ends. But when you have the John Terry, Billy
- 9:18Bowman, Danny Stutzman all coming back and obviously you know you you saw this
- 9:24is the the the the guys who got drafted and got picked up on defense.
- 9:28These are guys who these were the holdouts. These were the guys who
- 9:33decided to really really double down and triple down, uh with with you know,
- 9:37the the Venables company. So you know, they got rewarded because you
- 9:41know, let's just be honest, I don't think that I don't think we're
- 9:45talking about that or we don't have the stickiness that maybe a co or lala
- 9:48who have, you know, with the Colts, you know, without some
- 9:52proper coaching. So so yeah, you know, it's okay. You know,
- 9:56we got a streak. There's still you know a lot of people don't
- 9:58know about streaks like that. But you look into you know, future into
- 10:03next year, there's a chance that you know, we can throw up you
- 10:07know, a pretty big number in the draft next year. Yeah, and
- 10:11that that's exactly it. So you had these returning players of a Danny s
- 10:16Dustbin Bowman, Woody Washington, Dejon Terry. So honestly, that's two out
- 10:22of those four there's a minimum to Stutsman and Billy were definitely gonna get drafted,
- 10:26and then you probably was gonna get Woody drafted as well. So it
- 10:31just depends on how they felt about Dejon Terry. But I mean that's five
- 10:35dudes right there that have been, you know, in the draft if they
- 10:37would have went ahead and kept forward. But since they decided to come back,
- 10:41which we appreciate, we now get to have the most experienced defense in
- 10:46the SEC. And I think that that's a much better thing for us going
- 10:50into next season than us being able to say we got a streak of four
- 10:54dudes getting drafted every year. Yeah, since like mid two thousands. But
- 10:58the good thing is we've got a twenty years streak right now. If at
- 11:01least three dudes getting drafted, that is still ongoing every draft, and minimum
- 11:05three dudes are getting drafted. Our predecessors down south can't say that because it's
- 11:11funny. They're super excited about the fact that they had eleven dudes drafted in
- 11:15the draft. And I'm gonna throw shade at Texas right now. You had
- 11:18eleven dudes they got drafted in the NFL and you still couldn't win a playoff
- 11:22game. I mean, facts are facts, right, Michigan had thirteen drafted
- 11:31and they won the Natty. So to me, what that tells me is
- 11:35is that. And the funny thing is is that the fact that Texas had
- 11:39eleven draft in this draft. They lost to Washington two years in a row
- 11:41in the playoffs, right it, We won the playoffs, won in a
- 11:45bowl game. So got throw a little shade at the competition for that.
- 11:48But you know, it's good for them. I'm glad they finally got somebody
- 11:50drafted, because if I'm correct, last year they had zero people drafted.
- 11:54There's been it's been slim pickens, slim pickens on the University of Texas athlete
- 12:01front for a while. And and was it no, not last year because
- 12:05didn't last year? Did they have Bijeon or was that two years ago?
- 12:09Oh? Yeah, last year? Last year was Bijon. Bjeon was last
- 12:13year two years ago? Two years ago? They got a zero because they
- 12:16had Rochean uh he went later. And yeah, yet but regardless, regardless,
- 12:22I mean, it's so we didn't keep a streak of four alive.
- 12:26We still got twenty years. We cannot say that we had a zero in
- 12:31there at any point, even through you know, some of the rough years.
- 12:33So and if you look at it this at this point, I mean
- 12:39I've seen numbers like I've seen somebody throw the number sixteen potential draftable guys next
- 12:43year. So uh now, I hope that we do really, really well
- 12:48and I would not really dig to see sixteen cats roll. But you know,
- 12:54you've got a lot of depth right now. And it's it's you know,
- 13:00I said it said it before, is get ready to you know,
- 13:03sooner sooner, fans, you need to pay attention because between the transferport on
- 13:05draft, we're gonna start seeing a lot of guys that we don't want to
- 13:09see leave leave because the talent is is now up there. Yep, that's
- 13:16the exciting part. So Michigo, go show everybody some love and get everybody
- 13:22excited, you know, show the player some love. The fact that they
- 13:24all got drafted. It was funny. I like the Drake stoops pick up
- 13:28to the Rams, and I say that because he's gonna learn from Cooper Cup
- 13:31and it's gonna be it's kind of the perfect setup to the way that McVeigh
- 13:35runs things, Especially on that offense. He's gonna have a dude that he's
- 13:39gonna just hit over the middle all the time. Who was that young receiver
- 13:41that they had on there that seam this past season. That was Yeah,
- 13:48yeah, there you go on. Yeah he add stoops to that. That's
- 13:54gonna be a fun setup overall. So yeah, outside of that man,
- 13:58we had a pretty solid week on that draft front. So make sure you
- 14:03opt the comments and show the player some love on that one. But let's
- 14:05talk commitments real quick, as the questions already rolling in. We've already got
- 14:11a question about the last ditch effort with Williams, We've got one with who's
- 14:16next in the portal questions of coming. We're gona talk about the commitment,
- 14:20then we're gonna talk about the portal afterwards, all right. So Cortland Gillery
- 14:24gave us the commitment that we all were hoping for. Cornerback out of Houston,
- 14:30Texas area Spring Texas more so, whatever they want to call it,
- 14:33I don't care. Houston Metroplex corner six foot one ish, about one hundred
- 14:39and seventy and eighty pounds. We picked him up. We got it.
- 14:43We got that man turning his chip at the spring game. And it's funny.
- 14:48Did you see that video coop of him that he posted about him showing
- 14:52giving his chip turning his chip in? Yeah? I loved it. I
- 14:56like he it was funny watching BV lose his mind. Let me see if
- 15:00I can pull it up. See, yall can watch and enjoy as well,
- 15:03because it was it was pretty cool to watch him do that. I
- 15:07was saying, I actually am gonna do found it. Yayay, we'll get
- 15:13it pulled up. I want you to watch just as as Venibles gets the
- 15:18chip in hand, and how he kind of loses his mind towards the kids.
- 15:22So which if you picture Brent Vinnables doing anything, this is what you
- 15:28would picture right right, and so you know, of course you don't show
- 15:33it. His little toward everything here in Norman being excited about it. And
- 15:37then he goes in, has a chip in hand, flips it around,
- 15:41hands it to BV. BV looks at him, gets excited, loses his
- 15:46mind. That that just warms my heart. I like seeing any when players
- 15:48turn in their chips. You know, if a live course gets excited because
- 15:52it's his boy. Yeah, I got to show love to the family,
- 15:56show appreciation or whatnot. And that's the beauty of what we do here is
- 16:00the vat that you see everybody, the embracing of the family and the excitement
- 16:07behind it. It's it's beautiful. Coop saw Courtland when you saw some of
- 16:10his film and stuff, and how do you feel about him? You know,
- 16:15again, you continue to stack size guys who want to attack the ball,
- 16:21and you know he's not he's not pressing two hundred like some of the
- 16:23some of the guys on the team are yet. But you know he's willing
- 16:27to get up there and put his nose down. So I mean, this
- 16:30is you know, you you start seeing who the kind of guys that you
- 16:36want on your team, and so this is he's going to continue to rise.
- 16:41And this is one of those guys that you're gonna look up here and
- 16:44you know as freshman years, spring spring game rules around, he's gonna be
- 16:48another guy that's pushing people, you know, to either get better or to
- 16:52to get portalind And so it's just more and more stats that you know,
- 16:59and more and more talent that continues to happen in that secondary. Yeah,
- 17:04And that's that's the game, man. Is you want to get players that's
- 17:08gonna make everybody get competitive and want to compete. And he's one of those.
- 17:14I mean, he walks in. He's a consensus and composite four star
- 17:18player. Rivals has him as a four star. On three really doesn't have
- 17:21him listed yet, but he is technically a four star in their industry rating,
- 17:25and you know, he's top top, you know, four hundred player
- 17:27in the country. The good thing, though, is is that we kept
- 17:29him away from Texas. And when I watched his film, he's extremely scrappy,
- 17:34right like he he fights with a lot of folks on the defensive side,
- 17:41which is I think that was the thing that I fell in love with
- 17:42the most in watching him. I was like, Okay, you are really
- 17:47one of those players that are you know, you're very competitive in that aspect.
- 17:52And so let me pull up his film because I think that y'all will
- 17:55enjoy watching him play here. And that was the thing that, like I
- 18:03said, it jumped out to me was just how like legitimately scrappy he is.
- 18:08He he pushes up at the line like so. I was watching him
- 18:12at one of the camps and the first thing that jumped out to me was
- 18:17is that he was putting his hands right there on the receiver immediately. He
- 18:21wasn't letting him go anywhere. And I am here willing to give our guy
- 18:27Javeli the vouch for a rays, if we're shutting down just about every corner
- 18:33in the SEC next season, like if Eli's bringing in talent, I just
- 18:37need to see it produced. Like my entire vouching for Emmitt Jones was more
- 18:44so because with EJ, we had all those wide receivers that nobody knew about,
- 18:49and then the question was, okay, is our wide receiver room any
- 18:52good? Well they went out there and they produced. Right. We got
- 18:57to see our boy Jake Gibson show out and at levels that we were shocked.
- 19:03Right, we got Nick Anderson go out there and get ten touchdowns,
- 19:08right, and everybody's like, okay, didn't know who he really was as
- 19:11a three star coming in, We were quack questions. So for me and
- 19:15the questions I have for Elia is nowe these corners are shutting people down,
- 19:19right, Let's start giving up like very little passing yards. Let's excuse me
- 19:26calls issues on the route. Let's let's disrupt them all of that. If
- 19:33I can get low production, I'm I'm on the bandwagon of a lie needs
- 19:37another race. Yeah, it ends, And you're your reasoning is pretty sound
- 19:45on that because you said it. You know you saw the wide receiver room.
- 19:48Come out there. You saw Billy Bowman continue to take steps up.
- 19:52That's why we're starting to throw a haul in there too. And but yeah,
- 19:56Veli's you know, had injuries in his room, uh the past,
- 20:00you know, year and a half. And so right now you've got a
- 20:04legit, you know, four or five guys that you do you're you're comfortable
- 20:07with seeing out there. So now let's see, let's see each one of
- 20:11these guys take steps up and continue to become ballers. And uh, you
- 20:15know, whether that's a Canai walker, whether it's Woody in his little rover
- 20:21moving all over the field. Uh, Gentry's gentry has to stay healthy.
- 20:25Jacob Johnson continues to uh to make his steps up, so that room is
- 20:29pretty solid. And you know that's uh, that's that's you know why you
- 20:33saw Josiah Wagner, you know, finally make his decision to go ahead on
- 20:37about out west. Yeah, and that kind of sad as being so we
- 20:40could go ahead and jump into the transfer portal stuff with that. So Josiah
- 20:44Wagner, as y'all saw, the young corner out of Washington, did leave
- 20:48and hit the portal earlier this week. And then like literally A couple days
- 20:52later, he committed to Cow, which a cow is a very good institution,
- 20:56very good choice by him. Uh me that we lost him, but
- 21:03I understood why. Right, It's not a situation where we didn't want him.
- 21:07It's more of a we ain't gotta where to play you. And the
- 21:11other thing was is in camp for those for the uninitiated and camp last fall,
- 21:18he was fighting for a starting spot like he was actually battling because Gentry
- 21:22was dealing with the traditional Gentry injuries. He had been dealing with shoulder problems,
- 21:26and Josiah was running out there instead of him, and he was cooking
- 21:30as a freshman. He was the dude that was stepping up as the dude,
- 21:34And so the question was, hey, man, we may need to
- 21:37go ahead and start the kid, right, Gentry's healthy, Gentry goes out
- 21:44there, Gentry shows out he's playing. But then from there, Josiah was
- 21:48dealing with injuries, right, little dings and little nicked up injuries or whatnot.
- 21:52But he played seven games last season, but he get to play as
- 21:55much as they would have wanted him to. And then the rest of the
- 21:59room is just starting to del looked very good and it's like supposedly he just
- 22:03never got any It's like he could he never fully recovered from the injuries he
- 22:07dealt with. Yeah. Yeah, And I mean again, you're you're walking
- 22:12into the season with some people were saying that don't be surprised to see Josiah
- 22:18walk out there as the corner opposite Woody game one, and I mean I
- 22:23think it was the week of he had a little handy situation happened, and
- 22:27I mean the rest is history. So but again, as you continue to
- 22:33stock stockpile talent, you know, there's only so many guys that we had
- 22:37on here still from the previous regime that you know, you wanted to wish
- 22:44the best, but you know knew that they they were ever going to see
- 22:45the field here. Well, now we're dipping in. We're gonna start dipping
- 22:48in the guys that we really want to see. And uh So, but
- 22:52again as the rest, you know, everybody in the chat saying right now
- 22:55is you know, we wish just saw the best over there in cal and
- 22:59he is going to, uh he's going to make a name for himself,
- 23:03and you know, I hope to see him, you know, and mentioned
- 23:04in the draft here coming up before too long. Exactly. Yeah, I
- 23:07think that he'll he'll stand out at col He may actually take somebody's spot there,
- 23:11dude, that's how talented the kid is. We all know that he's
- 23:14talented. Yea. So no, no, no, we're not upset with
- 23:18him, you know, wish him the best. We know that you know
- 23:19he'll do big things and like losing him, losing Harrington as well, we
- 23:25understood the whole reasoning behind that. That room is getting big. Y'all saw
- 23:29bogan Ole Skin and Reggie Powers in the spring game. That should have told
- 23:32you everything you need to know about how we're starting to grow, especially in
- 23:36that cheeterahow Oma. Cigo is figuring things out, and so we anticipate him
- 23:41to move up to so coop man, I gotta say, got that competitive
- 23:47depth, it's looking good. Hey, I got a little Sooner schooner All
- 23:51American ale here tonight. So enjoying one of those for it, enjoy that
- 23:56formul or whatnot. I actually just finished my bourbon too long ago, and
- 24:00uh yeah, we're we're we're enjoying a good time here. So yeah,
- 24:07and I love this one from the bomb. Who would have thought we had
- 24:10this problem? Even two years ago. I one hundred percent agree. We
- 24:15we asked questions about depth and and and to keep it in perspective, most
- 24:21of our depth questions really were just people that were unproven people. We did
- 24:25not know who they were or what they were about. Well, now we
- 24:29got time and we're seeing that. Yeah, we we we we know what
- 24:34these people are. We know what these backups are. We know what a
- 24:40we know we know we know what a Macary Vickers and uh Kobe Johnson.
- 24:45We know who they are, and they're they're they're showing that they're trying to
- 24:48get playing time. We now see what a Gentry Williams really is. We
- 24:52know what a Robert Spiris Jennings is. Just that entire defense and secondary man,
- 24:56we know who they are. We know what our defensive line is,
- 24:57right, we know what we need more of, and we know what the
- 25:00guys will be good at and flourish if we gave them opportunity. Same thing
- 25:06with linebackers. So I think that we're gonna be We're gonna be y'all are
- 25:11gonna be pleasantly surprised as fans at what Oklahoma's gonna look like on the defensive
- 25:15side, especially because Brent Vinables has now had most of these guys for three
- 25:19years, two and a half years. Right, this is his this is
- 25:26his third spring with some of these guys. Yeah, that's some pretty big
- 25:32stuff there, right, Yeah, Who can we argue? What can we
- 25:37truly argue or even be mad or even have questions about when it comes to
- 25:41what this guy is doing. It's we're now, this is now the year.
- 25:45I'd say, if there was a year I had to judge bv it
- 25:48would be going into twenty five. I need to give Jackson on a one
- 25:52year just to you know, a buffer, But twenty five, no excuse.
- 26:00Every dude's gonna be in there four years and they should know what that
- 26:02they're doing. So all right, let's go and talk about some of these
- 26:08portal targets. So we got Hickman. We talked about that last week.
- 26:12Of course, we're all excited about getting a center. Uh, the question
- 26:17was asked, will we get another? Is there another target? Who are
- 26:19we really targeting in the portal? I'm gonna be honest, we got one
- 26:26target. One? Well I wouldn't say one. Let me let me pull
- 26:32that back a lot to y'all. My apologies lied very instantly. We've got
- 26:37about three targets. We got one and we really won. That's Dominic Williams,
- 26:41right, He's the one that we would like to get our hands on.
- 26:45But you know, reports are coming down that we are looking at We're
- 26:52looking at a couple of other defensive linemen borrow the actually both the guys out
- 26:57of Michigan State. Yeah, I believe that we're trying to potentially have conversations
- 27:00with. So everybody wants to know. This is the one that Sooner Cowboy
- 27:06asked this question. Did today? What happened today? William's brother was last
- 27:11hitch desperation smoke screen. I think that's a funny question. I'm gonna say
- 27:17why it's a funny question. We don't do stuff out of desperation. Keep
- 27:21it a buck with your Suoner Cowboy. We don't. We don't offer people
- 27:26that we don't have interest in. They don't do it as a formality.
- 27:30That's the one thing we've learned. And when it comes to siblings, I've
- 27:36seen us go after players and not go after their siblings. I've seen us
- 27:40go after players and siblings because we want both. I mean, one of
- 27:42the better example, you know, you got the Hawkins brothers. Now you
- 27:47got the Bowen brothers. We went after Hatchet, Garyan Hatchett and his brother
- 27:52Landon, and Landon decided to go back to school because he was recovering from
- 27:56the knee situation. But we went after those, went after him because we
- 27:59wanted them. We after both the mcculas design and Day, and unfortunately for
- 28:03Day, playing time wasn't happening for him because of how deep we were in
- 28:07the room, and he decided to go where he can get to run.
- 28:10He's at Louisville, which is not a bad place to be, right.
- 28:12So we don't just offered you. We don't do stuff just to do it
- 28:18right. We go after players that you want to play, right. That's
- 28:22what we're going to end, especially since now we're really targeting twenty seven.
- 28:25We got Zane Row, which I haven't put a video out on that,
- 28:27and I'm not gonna put a video out on zang Row until next year because
- 28:33he's putting it feels weird he's putting video out for us just I mean,
- 28:37he's he's at another camp just pushing five star twenty five guys around. So
- 28:41I mean, if you don't know anything about him yet that this is this
- 28:48will turn out to be if he signs in you know, seventeen years from
- 28:52now, whenever his class comes up or whatever. I mean, he looks
- 28:57like a potential top five guy in the class he does. And that's something
- 29:03that I'm totally here for, right I want players that can that's gonna be
- 29:11able to stand out. And for Dominic, I understand why he's going through
- 29:15this process. As I've talked about it in the video before. He never
- 29:19really had this type of process, right, Yeah, he he was.
- 29:27He was a three star player and his offer list at the time wasn't the
- 29:33longest, right, So it wasn't that he was bad, it was just
- 29:37nobody was real. He was very much under I can say he's more so
- 29:41underappreciated than anything. And so when I went back and looked at him,
- 29:45you know, go back and look at his high school. I mean,
- 29:48three star. He was five hundred and fortieth in the country, right,
- 29:52you know, fifty fifth player ranking at defensive line in the country, and
- 29:57it was more of a teams didn't really know who he was, right,
- 30:00TCU said we're gonna go after him. Now, his list wasn't bad,
- 30:04it just wasn't as extensive as you would have wanted. Right, a lot
- 30:07of pack at the time, pack twelve schools, you know, USC was
- 30:11even one of them. Uh, Michigan State and Michigan looked at him.
- 30:14Colorado looked at him at the time. And he ended up winning and going
- 30:18to TCU, and then he went TCU has showed out right, some of
- 30:22these underrated kids got to go out there and prove themselves and he did.
- 30:26Now everybody in Mama want him. Why, Like his recruiter at the time
- 30:32is now at Georgia, and then Rishard Samples is that Arizona State. Actually
- 30:37he's an organ. He's just leving went the organ. So Shadira was his
- 30:44his recruiter at TCU and Shdeer's over there at Georgia now doing things on that
- 30:48defensive line. So tells you that that who had the right eye for him,
- 30:52and hen's why he's at Georgia today. And so now everybody wants this
- 30:56man because he's really good. He proved that he's talented. Now we played
- 31:00against him, we got a little field on him. Do me a favorite,
- 31:04y'all, Go watch that TCU game. Go watch that TCU game for
- 31:10me. Let's go look at it. So I got to say, go
- 31:15watch the TCU game. You see him on the field. So cool.
- 31:18What you think about Dom? Would you think our chances are Atlanta him?
- 31:22Yeah? I mean you know that my thoughts have not switched since we were
- 31:27sitting on campus corner off the spring game. I expect you to pick him
- 31:33up and I expect it to be something that. Again, I think that
- 31:38you look at what stayed the same and what changed his commitment. His visit
- 31:42list changed a couple of times. You know, there was a lot of
- 31:47hoopla around everything. I've got my own assessment, you know that I that
- 31:52I put out there a while back. So, I mean, I expect
- 31:55him to show up on campus as an Oklahoma Sooner, and I think it's
- 31:57going to be it's going to be beautiful. It's going to be beautiful.
- 32:04Yep. And for you, Mike, his rating, he's about six five
- 32:08two twenty right now, and that's what as a sophomore, Yeah, freshman,
- 32:13freshman, he's twenty twenty seven class so he's a freshman. He's a
- 32:16freshman. He's sixty five to two twenty. That's huge, and so we
- 32:22all expect him to zay Row. That's Zame Road that we're talking about here,
- 32:25Zay and is we expect him to grow and get bigger. By the
- 32:30time he hits here. I'd say senior year, he could be about two
- 32:36forty two forty two to fifty edge And if he continues to be as athletic
- 32:40as he is now, man, he's guaranteed to be a five star based
- 32:45upon what we've seen him do to people in camp. So anyway, but
- 32:49yeah, I'm with you, Coop. I like our chances with them.
- 32:52I think that him and the family enjoyed their time here. I mean,
- 32:54we're of course biased, and I'm definitely biased against all those other teams that
- 32:59are looking at him. So at this point, I'm just hoping that we're
- 33:01right. I'm hoping that Dominic the side at Oklahoma where he wants to be,
- 33:05we can bring his family in and then in twenty twenty seven we have
- 33:08his little brother come here and we keep the tradition going, you know,
- 33:12a tradition as old as the game itself, bringing in family after family.
- 33:15Right, we didn't do that. And listen, you know, I see,
- 33:21I see James your comments about the increasingly huge bags. Those bags aren't
- 33:25the early recruiting cycle bag sizes. We're much bigger than they are now.
- 33:30A lot of these people have played everything that they could. We did not,
- 33:37And I just that there's not an offer. There's not a number that
- 33:42I've heard from anybody, anybody who has an opinion on it, that has
- 33:46it, that says anything anything, anything that Oklahoma is not, if not
- 33:51the leader on what we what we offered. You know, we're not going
- 33:55to throw four million dollar tag out there or anything like that. But no,
- 34:00nobody was throwing anything over the top with any guarantee because I think that
- 34:04some of these recruiters and these handlers now that you know, they now see
- 34:07like, hey listen, we want certain assurances that the stuff is going to
- 34:12actually show up, this money is actually going to show up. And and
- 34:15you know, again there's a lot of these programs. We've got people who've
- 34:19bounced and said, hey listen, I never saw the money that they promised.
- 34:22So we currently don't have that narrative around us. And but we did
- 34:25play the game here and we have a smile on our face with the number
- 34:30that uh that we that we gave. So we played the nil game,
- 34:36and you know, if if I'm right on Wednesday, and then I'll say
- 34:40that we we won it too. Yep. So I mean outside of him,
- 34:46you're looking at like, uh, like a Simeon Borrow, which I
- 34:52thought Borrow Borrow did go. He visited l s U And as of right
- 34:54now, he doesn't have anything scheduled for us, but I know that he
- 35:04is that something is being worked on. That's been like all the reports I've
- 35:07been here and in single around. But he is a nice sized dude as
- 35:12well. He's coming in at what was he like to to ninety? He
- 35:19was he was, he was close. He was close to that dollar that
- 35:22dollar amount that we need. And and you know, we've got people that
- 35:27we talked to pretty consistently that I feel like if we would have gotten him
- 35:31instead of Dom, I mean that's not a massive step back. You know.
- 35:37The Borough kid is a h he's baller, he is going to be
- 35:40good. Yeah, I'd be glad to get him, man like the one
- 35:45we want. We want Dom, right, Dom is probably he's the he's
- 35:50the big, biggest fish of them, But I think that the others are
- 35:52some pretty solid fishes. Uh, Simian Borrow Junior as well as Harmon now
- 35:57Harmon On Michigan State. He's a big oo like. I think he's about
- 36:01three to ten as well. He graded very well last season, like,
- 36:08very very well. Like when I looked at his his PFF grades, I
- 36:13was like, Okay, you you're pretty good. You're actually a lot better
- 36:15than I thought you were gonna be. But he's out there as well at
- 36:19the at the three hundred and ten fifteen pounds, really good, good,
- 36:24good zero technique guy that you need in order to survive the sec. Right,
- 36:30our goal is to get at least we need to have at least four
- 36:32dudes over three hundred pounds, and right now we've got what three on the
- 36:37defensive line? Yeah, I think three. I think we're a couple of
- 36:40people, you know, one or two breakfasts away from it too. Yeah,
- 36:45I think that we could well. I think that by the time we
- 36:46get through the summer workouts and go right into fall camp, we should have
- 36:52at least five. Right. I know that Sears was knocking on the door,
- 36:55and so was Grason. Holton, Stone and Jackson are over three hundreds.
- 37:05Uh BB confirmed that. And then of course Dave Jean Terry, you're
- 37:08a leader in that room, and so yeah, we we just need to
- 37:13get bigger, thicker, stronger. I think we'll be fine. Yeah,
- 37:17it's it's listen, it's that you will well, I saw you know a
- 37:23question and let's let's touch on that. And that was what you know,
- 37:27the year three jump, you know under Brent Venables and I mean, guys,
- 37:34we are an experience offensive line away from talking about what our chances with
- 37:39the national championship is. If we had a returning starting line, then their
- 37:44only question mark is Jackson Arnold the only one. So you know, you
- 37:49continue to work on that offensive line. But yeah, I mean outside of
- 37:52that, I mean on the defensive side, you return the most returning starters,
- 38:00you know, in in in the SEC. We are going to walk
- 38:05into the SEC pushing four top five defense. You add a domon there and
- 38:09a couple of good injury you know, you know, uh tidings and you're
- 38:15you're you're pushing for higher and it's going it's going to be something to where
- 38:20again we're we're our offense is no slouch either, So don't you know,
- 38:23don't get it twisted the offense, because that offensive line is going to surprise
- 38:27the people. People are going to say, oh, we saw this coming
- 38:31with Brent Vinables because he always does this on defense, right, and Brent
- 38:37Vinnables will be judged. Now if this defense throws an egg out there,
- 38:40that that that's that's concerned. But I just don't see that, especially when
- 38:45I believe I think that the SEC offenses this year they're not going to be
- 38:51dynamic. There's not going to be a lot of dynamic SEC offenses this year.
- 38:54This is uh, this is not the year. Uh you know four
- 38:58or five years ago when you had you know, first round draft pick,
- 39:00you know, talent spread through out, you got a lot of young kids,
- 39:05got a lot of transfers first year in the program. And so I
- 39:08mean, this defense has a good good chance. And like Jay said about,
- 39:13you know, giving the the raises, you throw a defensive back room
- 39:16that really tightens up that zone coverage and makes everythingle like makes them work for
- 39:21the ball like Lou dort is making folks work on the on the hardwood right
- 39:24now. If you make receivers work like that, they're they're going to get
- 39:29frustrated and it's going to be fun. Oh yeah, that's the best part,
- 39:32man, is getting people to work. And our defense is going to
- 39:35do that. And so that's the good part of bringing in, having having
- 39:38over you know, having seventy nine percent of the production returning and all these
- 39:43players being ready to step up and grow it. And so Dominic, if
- 39:47you're watching, you and your mom's watching, join us, Come on,
- 39:52come be a sooner, Come join us. Let's go for number one.
- 39:57Number one defense in the SEC is something that we can put our sights on.
- 40:00Yep, that's our goal. I mean, we beat Texas' best team
- 40:04they've had in like fifteen years, and we could have won by a lot
- 40:07more. We were just being you know, bad, Like we only gave
- 40:10up twenty three offensive points and we had that silly punt that we gave up
- 40:15for a touchdown, But we gave up twenty three offensive points that entire game.
- 40:19I am so excited about the fact that. And let's move on to
- 40:22the next thing, though, Coop, what our defense is gonna look like?
- 40:23Man going into the SEC. Because there was a couple of art It
- 40:27was an article that was put out by a local guy. Everybody was paling
- 40:31on them, losing their minds. Little Barry Trammel I didn't lose my mind
- 40:37on them because I read the article. It's funny because if I put a
- 40:40video out about it. So first off, you had Josh Pate that talked
- 40:44about us after watching the spring game and kind of how he felt and his
- 40:47vibes are he thinks we're going to be just fine. Barry was a little
- 40:52bit more concerned and thinking that we're not SEC ready, and the premise behind
- 40:57his thought process was that just I'm paraphrasing here is seventeen was the one team
- 41:07that we were built to beat SEC teams and we fumbled the bag. He's
- 41:10one hundred percent correct there. That was the title year. That was a
- 41:14championship year. That was the last. That was the first year of the
- 41:16last regime that's just left, and that was right after Stoops stepped down.
- 41:23That was the year that we were built to win if we would have had
- 41:30defense that was a little bit better prepared. And so from there you read
- 41:37the article, but more so as premises is that Venables has had to start
- 41:42slow and he's rebuilding everything back up and as of right now, there's still
- 41:47questions around the trenches, and that's something you can't have questions going into the
- 41:52SEC. I totally get where Barry is coming from in this. I don't
- 42:00think that he's too far fetched her off base. He's extremely pessimistic, that's
- 42:07the thing, and I think that that's what's frustrating so many people. For
- 42:09me, it's I don't like that the context behind looking at what's been done,
- 42:22it's not being paid attention to. You get what I'm saying, Coop.
- 42:24As I'm going through this extremely long monologue here, venables defenses takes time
- 42:31to progress. He did this same thing at the last job he had.
- 42:37He did the same thing when he took the job here at Oklahoma. Year
- 42:42one, eah different though. Year two we just started a whooping tail and
- 42:47lucked out. All the talent was already here. Everybody came back on a
- 42:52natty. He goes to Clemson, Okay. Next year they showed up vast
- 42:59improvement. Year after that he got won the top defenses in the country and
- 43:01they win a Natty. Right now, am I saying that year three here
- 43:05he's gonna win a Natty? I can't give you that. I can probably
- 43:07give you that for twenty five. I can't give you that for twenty four.
- 43:10But what I can tell you is because of the way this is natural
- 43:15progression is gone. And the fact that the last three years he's putting the
- 43:17players that he would like to have on the field out there, the ones
- 43:21he would want to recruit, the ones that he would want to leverage in
- 43:23his system, while adding portal guys which has made it even easier for him
- 43:28to be able to do that and recruits. We're at that point. We
- 43:34are right here. We are right here, at the point where we're looking
- 43:39like, hey, got pops in the spot another pops in was going on,
- 43:45William Jay doing good, sir doing good? This man is he's becoming
- 43:51a Twitter legend. He's an ou Twitter legend already. Yeah, I'm Bonanoski's
- 43:57pop. They're both the legends on there. But no, my point stating
- 44:00is is that that progression is there. We're bringing in transferred guys to do
- 44:05what we need while also bringing in recruits, so they're building the cake with
- 44:07an actual foundation and adding additional ingredients and icing that you need. That's,
- 44:13to me, is the bigger thing to pay attention to the Oklahoma's doing it
- 44:17anything else, And I just don't feel like a lot of the national media
- 44:24or even the local guys that pay attention to everything I don't think that there's
- 44:30zeroed in on that, which I can't fault him for that. It take
- 44:34I purposely focused and specialized on Oklahoma football for a reason, right specialized here,
- 44:42And that's kind of where the difference is. You don't get that with
- 44:45a lot of other local media who's covering, you know, a big swath
- 44:49of the state, because there's a lot of information to try to retain.
- 44:52So anyway, off my soap box, I don't. I think we're sec
- 44:57ready, and I think we're gonna surprise a lot of folks coop a pass
- 45:00to you, So I get off this soapbox. Listen, the defensive line
- 45:07is sec ready. I'm with or without a single additional addition. We are
- 45:14sec ready on the on the defense and I'm and I'm very very confident in
- 45:19that we've got depth. Depth is what you need. Is you can't have
- 45:24your number two corner or your you know, number two safety or your backup
- 45:29linebacker can't be a guy that trots out there and has no business ever being
- 45:34on the field. That's the difference that we have now is you know,
- 45:37is I'm trying to write down like a starting eleven, there's at least four
- 45:43opportunities where I'm like, yeah, but this guy also, well yeah,
- 45:45but this guy also well then but this guy also because I currently don't have
- 45:51Woody Washington or you know, mccolla on on here, and there's no uh,
- 45:57there's there's no uh PJ or Bowen, Peyton Bowen. So like there's
- 46:07I mean right there, there's just right there, there's fourteen. And that
- 46:10doesn't count any additions that we potentially have or any of the transfer line guys
- 46:15you know, showing out outside of Willard because I have him as a you
- 46:20know, day one starter opposite of PJ. And I think that you give
- 46:27you give the SEC quite a bit to look at when you throw out.
- 46:31And I'm legitimately saying there's probably thirty there's probably thirty guys on this defense who
- 46:37are absolute studs and difference makers, and then there's probably twenty others that are
- 46:45ready to show that they are also that. So I mean we, like
- 46:50I said a few minutes ago, is we are we are an experience offensive
- 46:53line away from being a top ten team, you know, preseason. So
- 46:59I'm okay with that. Everybody's sitting back, letting us roll and just thinking
- 47:01woe is us, you know, because I don't understand how you can watch
- 47:05Texas lose damn near every bit of their production and then say like they're ready,
- 47:10But then we are bringing vast majority of our production back and we're all
- 47:15of a sudden, you know, not sec ready. So just remember when
- 47:21stories hit the old Twitter, the old X, whatever you want to call
- 47:23it. Most of the time it is that your little butt will go click
- 47:28and you gain some traffic and then you react, and so it is a
- 47:31tail as old as time. It is at least four or five years going.
- 47:35Right now that if you want a quick boost in your twitters, say
- 47:39something and leave Oklahoma out. Throw a slide to Oklahoma fans because they're gonna
- 47:45show up and they're gonna go they're gonna go crazy, and you're gonna be
- 47:47able to hop up the algorithm, simple as that, and it pops chimed
- 47:55in with a great point. Depth is greater than size, being able to
- 48:00bring guys in ways, bounce the skills, and it's what it is.
- 48:04Right, you could tell that we didn't go for the microwave approach, right,
- 48:08some other coaches are making those attempts. They're trying and I'm gonna be
- 48:13honest. We have a z idea of how successful you can be by living
- 48:20in the transfer portal. Only the only thing I'd say Prime has done so
- 48:24far is he moved from one win the year before he got there to the
- 48:29year he got there to go to four wins. I mean, going from
- 48:30one to fourth is actually a pretty darn big jump. He's four hundred percent
- 48:34better than he was before. Now can he get to a bowl game?
- 48:37And he's seeing yet another exodus? And I told y'all before, right,
- 48:42we we did not see very many players besides Harryton and Wagoner and then mostly
- 48:52walk Ons. We don't really see anybody fully of substance that bounced, right
- 48:58is that's bouncing in the portal like now we've got today is the twenty eighth.
- 49:01The portal closes on the thirtieth, so we got about two more days,
- 49:05uh, well three more days, well, two more days of crosses
- 49:07our fingers and toes and seeing what it looks like. But for the most
- 49:10part, I'm gonna be quite honest, I don't believe we're gonna see very
- 49:14many people leave for the portal like that like people are expecting. I do
- 49:19see an exodus in December though, because that's when the next class is gonna
- 49:22be prepared to come in. And I think that players are gonna realize that
- 49:27the younger guys have passed me. I'm probably not gonna play And that makes
- 49:30sense, right, I mean, as guys get older, they recognize it.
- 49:36So yeah, for me, I don't anticipate that we'll see anybody else
- 49:45go. I do think that we'll stand put, and then next season,
- 49:49like I said, December, we'll see more people decide to make their change
- 49:53of consequence too. And again I'll say if you if you're not ready for
- 50:00seeing guys go to the portal that you didn't want to see, you know,
- 50:02Josiah Wagner is the very tip of the iceberg. And again that is
- 50:07a huge That's a huge loss. Nobody else is going to be a huge
- 50:12I mean, nobody else is going to be minute inconsequential losses going forward.
- 50:16It's everybody on this team. We want to see on this team. You
- 50:21know you and I don't want to start naming off. I mean there's a
- 50:22couple of people that are still you know, just right there just because of
- 50:27what we have coming down the future. But again you know, in defensive
- 50:30backs, we saw we saw get really thin last year. And you know
- 50:35when you're running out there guys that people don't know who were on our team
- 50:39that you know that that that gets people a little nervous. And you know,
- 50:44running backs, we've we've been there a few times here recently. It's
- 50:46where we've got one guy nicked up, one guy with a one game suspension,
- 50:52and then all of a sudden we're throwing out on h back to start
- 50:53us on the road. You know, it's it's that's that's not going to
- 50:59fly leaving to go to Auburn. You know that might work against Iowa State,
- 51:02you know, but you know we need to we need to keep this
- 51:06keep this depth here and hopefully again when when we see the amount of depth,
- 51:10depth that's going to be used this year, it keeps people on because
- 51:14they know that there's a chance that they are actually going to get to play
- 51:17yep, and it's going to be fun seeing what this team looks like in
- 51:23the SEC. And and as it was mentioned in the comments, we definitely
- 51:29want to make sure we stay under the radar. We don't want the hype.
- 51:31Please please think lore of us. I think it was one poll.
- 51:37One list came out that made me laugh and I was like, yes,
- 51:40I need more of that, inject that in my veins. They were basically
- 51:45the post spring game rankings. Well, what do you guess? Oklahoma was
- 51:51right, Coop, give me your best guess. Let's go with a twelve.
- 51:54Oo. It sounds funny. Wasn't that low? But you're close.
- 52:00It was number ten. We were random team. We were behind Florida after
- 52:04our spring game. Florida. We'll go ahead and say that there's not a
- 52:12lot of I mean again, it's people know that there's there's a little something.
- 52:16You can't watch Burks run out there, you know, keep it on
- 52:20the on the d L that there were two busted coverages. But you can't
- 52:23watch that boy run out there and go crazy and then not go oh damn,
- 52:27they've got a chance to be really good. Not to mention the two
- 52:31leading receivers from last year weren't on the field. And you've got another guy
- 52:37who probably in Jaden Gibson, who you know, played better than his stats
- 52:43showed, you know, because he had the touchdown called back. But yeah,
- 52:45it's guys, listen, we've I don't know how long we're going to
- 52:52get to walk in the you know, the discredit ou and the sec d
- 52:55you know deal. But I'm calling five weeks because I think after week five
- 53:00there's going to be a different narrative being started. Oh yeah, right after
- 53:05we take the trip to Auburn. It's done. At that point, it's
- 53:08over and we won't be able to do anything we speaking of which, I
- 53:13actually just got my email earlier this week to get road tickets. So got
- 53:20my road ticket secured for Missouri, LSU, and Auburn. I didn't get
- 53:27I didn't make the list for oh, miss and I'm gonna probably still try
- 53:30to figure out how go that one. If there's any of them I want
- 53:32to go to, is that one. I don't want to go to Missouri.
- 53:35I'm gonna be honest. Columbia, no, thank you, I know,
- 53:39but yes, once we take the Auburn trip, I think that that's
- 53:44where everything changes for us, right. I think that that's when everybody's like,
- 53:49uh, oh, this is this is Oklahoma. Huh okay okay,
- 53:55And hopefully Tennessee shows out pretty well in their early games too, because then
- 54:00Tennessee comes to the Crib. And when Tennessee comes to the crib any momentum
- 54:05they have. You know that the if OU shows out and does what we
- 54:08think they're gonna do, the story is gonna be one of two ways.
- 54:12Well, Josh Eipel, you know, didn't really have us. I mean
- 54:15they're not ready, that's young, or let's go with ou is is really
- 54:23really good. Well, we're not gonna be credited. I don't think we
- 54:28should even pretend like or even or even ask the question, Oh, we're
- 54:30gonna be get credit for how we perform it, We're not. I'm just
- 54:34gonna tell y'all now just act like yeah, I just don't even Yeah,
- 54:38we're not gonna take get any credit in any of the games we do when
- 54:42we get end of the season, which outside of that, I'm very happy
- 54:45that we have our first three games that we do have. I do like
- 54:47that we have Houston Tulane as well as Temple because we're going to definitely sharpen
- 54:52the heck out of this iron boil. We're gonna be ready to go.
- 54:57And the next season we get more home game because of red River or whatnot,
- 55:04so we get like I think, like a quote unquote extra well,
- 55:07we get the four home games that we're supposed to instead of only having three
- 55:10since you know, red River is considered you know, well, we're the
- 55:14home team at red River this year, so that's why we only have three
- 55:16home games. The red River games considered a home game. So yeah,
- 55:22but yeah, no, I am, I am. I'm excited about us
- 55:30being underrated. So all right, cool, what else you got before we
- 55:34wrap this bad way up? No, I mean, I'll end it with
- 55:37this way without going too deep. You guys, just always make sure,
- 55:42you know, on the social media's it's all fun and games. You know,
- 55:45we all know the craziness that's happening right now. Continue to be what
- 55:51you are, you know, don't don't stoop lower it's you know, just
- 55:57continue to take care of what your own and then let's store come around.
- 56:00You know, it's it's it's it's been nuts just watching O you Twitter and
- 56:06the passion and everything like that. And I was really, really, you
- 56:08know, happy with how most of this stuff was handled here with the past
- 56:12couple of nights. But yeah, just continue to support the rest of Oklahoma
- 56:16everybody who was affected. There's probably gonna be more. You know, we're
- 56:20in the tis the season, and it just seems like every single week we
- 56:23got, you know, more craziness coming in. So just uh, you
- 56:28know, it's still lying from a Gabe and Teddy show. Do what you
- 56:30do best, Oklahoma, take care of each other. And so yeah,
- 56:34just keep that. And if you want to go after other content creators,
- 56:37it's it's it's you know. I don't condone it, but I smile every
- 56:42once in a while. Same same, So we won't wrap it up.
- 56:47We won't keep it just under an hour today. Thank you out for pulling
