  Speaker 5: chiefs or the chefs, as I told you earlier, go

  Speaker 5: to the Super Bowl.
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah. That commercial cracks me up every time.
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: You can tell Andy Reid has a lot of fun
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: doing those commercials with my homes, every single one of them.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: He just has so much enthusiasm and it doesn't feel
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: like he's trying to act. It really just seems like
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: that's just how much of a goofball he seriously is.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: But I have an appreciation for that chat. You want
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: feeling up.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: And you don't have to worry about your job every year.
• 2:03
  Speaker 4: It's like, why not? True?
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: True?
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: He's also setting a very high expectation of where.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: You know, if he ain't winning a whole bunch of
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Super Bowls, nobody likes him. But yeah, yeah, they gonna
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: try to fire the man. But uh no, it's good
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: to see everybody in the chat. I see every single
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: one of y'all in here. Thanks for pulling up. I
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: know there are some hurt feelings in here. I'm not
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: honestly sure why we talked about this. What was that
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: was that Thursday night coop when we kind of dove
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: into this nose stuff. And we'll lead off with that
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: real quick, and I'll give y' all my opening rant.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: So Jim Knowles, Uh, it's official.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: All of the national people that we were waiting for
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: has made the announcement that Jim Knowles is taking the
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: job at Penn State. Pete Damil, Pete Nakos, all of
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: the big name people finally put it out there. And
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: for me going into this, the only thing that I
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: thought about all of this is it would be cool
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: to have somebody that that is really that's that good
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: and has that type of a mind to join the staff.
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: That would be really cool. Do I think it makes
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: or breaks anything, Absolutely not. But there is one thing
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: though that I do consider out of this is that
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: it is showing in Oklahoma's willing to swing for the
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: fences in a situation that they.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: Can go after.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Now, a lot of reports have said that supposedly he
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: reached out to us first, so we could have been
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: leveraged as a pawn initially in the pursuit for larger
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: checks cool, but other reports have also said that Oklahoma
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: always felt like it was a long shot of getting them,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: but they were willing to have the conversation. I don't
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: think that that's a bad thing him was never something
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: that was required, but it has been. Like I said,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: it been great to have an additional great mind on staff.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Start with you coop thoughts on all of it.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: I mean, when we talked on Thursday, my point number
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: one was this would be a good look for the
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: optics side of it, just to go out and get
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: the DC. Now I find myself a little a little
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: confused about the optics piece because I mean, it's obvious
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: that Gymnals was not super excited about his time in Columbus.
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: And you win, you go out on top and then
• 4:38
  Speaker 3: you go kind of a tad step down and go
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: across the street and you know you're gonna go face
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: your your your team. I mean, it just seems odd
• 4:50
  Speaker 3: to me. The thing that I would definitely say is
• 4:54
  Speaker 3: the you know, I think a lot of the news
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: and everything got over leveraged and over exaggerated. I'm guessing, uh,
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: you know, you always felt like the fiance living here
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: was you know, the the big ticket is that was
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: a that was a big deal. Apparently it was not,
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: or apparently he's making enough money to fly to and
• 5:13
  Speaker 3: fro wherever he wants, uh, you know, on the dime
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: of Penn State. And so yeah, I mean it is
• 5:21
  Speaker 3: what it is. I mean, you've already got Brent Vnables.
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: The defense was not the issue here. You went out
• 5:26
  Speaker 3: and addressed the offense. You went out and addressed the quarterback.
• 5:28
  Speaker 3: You went out and addressed the the wide receivers stuff,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: and so long story short, I just think that, uh, yeah,
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: this would have been a terrific deal. This was an
• 5:37
  Speaker 3: embarrassment of riches type of a situation if it would
• 5:40
  Speaker 3: have happened. But it's obvious the the the pending, this
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: is uh, this is done. That that all that talk
• 5:50
  Speaker 3: obviously just ended up not being it. He he chose
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: to go to Penn State. That was his choice. Whatever happened,
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: that was his choice. The contributing factors of the fiance
• 6:00
  Speaker 3: seem to not be as much as the ones on
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: the it's act return, So we'll they'll have a good defense.
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's my thoughts. PG. How do you feel about it?
• 6:11
  Speaker 5: I mean, we're gonna be fine, but I mean I
• 6:13
  Speaker 5: really really really wanted Jim Knowles, because I really thought
• 6:16
  Speaker 5: it would help Briton Vinables with the you know, game
• 6:20
  Speaker 5: time errors that we've seen a little bit, because he
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: would be able to, I feel like, completely disconnect himself
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: from the defense and just kind of let Jim Knowles
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: do his things. So, you know, I talked about this
• 6:31
  Speaker 5: in my reaction video to Knowles going to Penn State,
• 6:34
  Speaker 5: and I said, you know, if Brent Vinibles is gonna
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: end up calling the defense because we didn't land Knowles,
• 6:41
  Speaker 5: what does Oklahoma do at that point? Because I think
• 6:44
  Speaker 5: Oklahoma now needs to make a move to either, Like
• 6:47
  Speaker 5: you know, we see all the time in the NFL,
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: head coaches will have analytics people to kind of feed
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: them information on you know, should you go foot on fourth?
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: You know what, what does that look like? Does Brenton
• 6:58
  Speaker 5: Vinibles need to now have an assistant that purely watches
• 7:02
  Speaker 5: the clock, advises him when he should take a time out,
• 7:05
  Speaker 5: so that when he's ingrained in the defense, he's got
• 7:08
  Speaker 5: somebody standing right next to him can help make those decisions.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 7:11
  Speaker 5: So that's kind of the only bummer and the reason
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: why I'm upset about us not landing Gym Knowles.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: But it's not because the defense sucks and we need him.
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: It's mainly because now I understand Brent Vannables is gonna
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: calling the defense all year and we need somebody to
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: help him out on the just operational side of a
• 7:27
  Speaker 5: football game.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well that's the thing PG. What makes you think
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: they don't have that today?
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: If you have that today, then you need to fire
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: whoever is that because that it ain't been working.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: I don't think it hasn't been working. I think that
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: it's just not perfect. It's not perfect science. There's no
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: perfect science to that circumstance. And we haven't been terrible
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: at time management. We just haven't been perfect. But it's
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: not something that that I don't believe we have that.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: That's why you have so many analysts. I mean, you
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: can go look at the you know, the staff or whatnot.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: But I get what you're saying. You do want someone
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: that's stronger at it. I don't think that a Jim
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: Knowles would have given you someone stronger at that spot.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: Jim Knowles would have been up there at the booth
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: focusing on the defenses and stuff, which it's always nice
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to have somebody up there in the booth that can
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: focus on that read what the offense looks like. They're
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: gonna have be prepared in game planning and be able
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: to make the right call. So I get where you're
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: coming from with that. I just don't feel like it
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: would have been a great addition. But I don't think
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: there's a single substraction subtraction. But now the question is
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: who are we going to go after. Do we need
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: a defensive coordinator right now? Do we need a linebacker
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: coach right now? And I'm be honest, I don't think
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: we should rush. Think we should take our time, continue
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: to take our time like we've been this in tire endeavor.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: I don't think that it really changes much going forward.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, I know a lot of fans, you know,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: we have people in the chat that are having fun,
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: you know, taking their victory lap. So there's no way
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: he would go here. There's no reason for him to
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: go come here. I mean sure, but I think the
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: point of the conversation was that we just wanted to
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: see if we could add somebody elite, additional elite to
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: the staff. And I think it's silly to even complain
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: about it. If you want me to be hundred persent, honest,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: like why our defense wasn't Our problem last year was offense.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: We addressed that bad a new staff people, and so
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: now we need to see if ben Arbuckle can do it.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: But where is the problem on defense? Like where I
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: just want somebody in a chance to tell me.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: I And it's funny that people. It's funny that people
• 9:41
  Speaker 4: like like Jim Knowles didn't need to come here.
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: He didn't need to go to Penn State either, Like
• 9:44
  Speaker 5: Penn State had a really good defense too. Now yeah,
• 9:46
  Speaker 5: like they're without a defensive coordinator as well, but Penn
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: State's historically had good defenses too. So I mean realistically,
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: like you know that that argument to me feels invalid
• 9:56
  Speaker 5: when people say that, because I'm like, didn't need to
• 9:58
  Speaker 5: go to Penn State either, you know, I do look
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: at it, and I just say, at this point, I
• 10:04
  Speaker 5: think you need to pull.
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: The trigger on West Goodwin as your linebackers coach. You know, it.
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: Seemed like he really worked well with Burn Vittables when
• 10:12
  Speaker 5: he was at Clemson. Bring him back here and maybe
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: you can have something similar. I don't know what that's
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: gonna look like, but I think that's your next move.
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: And I think that's probably the only movie you make. Yeah,
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: unless Jim Leonard wants to become available.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: That all over again.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: You know, Coach Ricks, shout coach Ricks.
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: Yeah, two bucks, thank you sir, We appreciate that. Go ahead, koop, and.
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: You know again, that's that seems to be like a
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: movie that's gonna get made. And if anybody wants to know,
• 10:43
  Speaker 3: why don't you make him the uh the d C.
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: I think if he's an analyst, he can get paid
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: by both o U and Clemson and my my correct
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: and saying that, so yes, just just go h he's
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: going to do that again. There's gonna be there's gonna
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: be improvement on the defensive side. But let's not pretend
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: that like defense is really good. You know, we've gone
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: through over this, you know, pretty pretty at linked even
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: through the offense just never helping out it was good.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: So all in all, yeah, everybody thought, you know, national
• 11:19
  Speaker 3: championship winning defensive coordinator coming here from Ohio State, that
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: makes us look like absolute studs. We are the same
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: today as we were last Sunday. So yeah, we come
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: off the same exact schedule, the same exact record, and
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: the defense just needs some help. From the offense. I
• 11:40
  Speaker 3: think that the game management stuff is going to be
• 11:44
  Speaker 3: something that we want to see continue to get better.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: But again, I still I still feel like this my
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: my assessment on our record this year doesn't change internally
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: for me by not getting Jim Knowles.
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: I think it maybe adds a game, but I don't
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: think it takes away anything to me adding someone like
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: him now granted to go with that, it's for the uninitiated.
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: Wes Goodwin did not get poached or hired over to
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: Oklahoma because he's not on staff right now yet. The
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: rumors are that they're gonna add him as an analyst,
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: but because Clemson let him go, they have to pay
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: the buyout on his contract and so, but in all
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: coaching contracts, there's always a cause in there that says
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: if you get another job that it offsets how much
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: you are old on those buyouts. So, and it also
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: kind of makes encourages you to go get a job
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: to in some way. Some contracts do, some don't. It
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: just depends.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: So in that.
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: In that case, hiring Jim, hiring Wes Goodwin over as
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: your defensive coordinator's not a good idea why pay him
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: we don't have to or pay him all of if
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: you don't have to, you know, there's nothing wrong with
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: letting Clemson continue to pay him for a year and
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: then you work out, you know, bringing in somebody at linebacker.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: To be honest, the one I would like to get
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: a linebacker and recruiter will be awesome. Go get Otum, Yeah,
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: go get Brian Odham. He's a fantastic recruiter. I mean
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: he's the one that got you Danny Stutsman. He was
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: a part of fro'm corypt Kip Lewis as well as
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: Kobe McKenzie. He's a really good linebacker coach and recruiter
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: Kenneth Murray as part of that. If I'm correct, I
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: would take Otum that that would be a name I
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: would try to go out because I think he's in
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: What is he in North Texas?
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: Is he a Texas state? Right now?
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: North Texas, North Texas.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: Go get Brian Odham. But he can recruit.
• 13:55
  Speaker 4: Didn't he get like a high up jobs?
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: He's a DC.
• 13:59
  Speaker 4: We could outpay North Texas.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: But he's the interim defensive coordinator at North Texas. It
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: doesn't say that he's anything else.
• 14:08
  Speaker 5: Well, Jay, you're still missing like the biggest name and
• 14:11
  Speaker 5: the easiest name that we could go get.
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: I hate you not even This is usually where you
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: stand against and I don't want to hear it.
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you're probably gonna say if it's legitimate, I'm willing
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: to hear it.
• 14:23
  Speaker 5: If he is still coaching, and if you called him,
• 14:28
  Speaker 5: he would do it. If you called him, he would
• 14:30
  Speaker 5: seriously do it. Go get yourself, popstups, damn it. He
• 14:35
  Speaker 5: is coaching, he is available. He doesn't have to.
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: Go PG PG PG PGT me let me help PG,
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: let me help you real quick. He's not available. He
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: is no, he's not no, please please stop. He's not available.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: He's not available. If he was available, he'd been here
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: a long time. He's not available. There's a reason why
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: he's doing the uf L or whatever they call themselves today.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: There's a reason in time. He doesn't want to put
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: in the work.
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: In stress that college requires. It doesn't make any sense.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: It's it's the same thing as Alabama going and get
• 15:08
  Speaker 3: an ex scabment to come help out exactly. It's not
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: realistic of the way from a world that has changed
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: immensely for probably the worse in his area. So, you know,
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: I just I just say this is yeah, you know,
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: take your time, make it right. It's not it's not
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: going to be a massive, massive deal whether or not
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: we get somebody else or not. If you want to
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: add somebody, sure, go for it. Let's do it. But yeah,
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: you know, the the the option of having Gymns on
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: staff was exciting for a lot of us when we
• 15:41
  Speaker 3: started hearing a lot of the rumors about that.
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: Stuff coming around.
• 15:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was exciting. Was it real? Was was the
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: you know, was the conversation real? Yes, we respond upon
• 15:49
  Speaker 3: the conversations going on that that conversation was going on.
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: He chose Penn State. Penn State has a defense that
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: actually is more similar to his. You know when we
• 15:59
  Speaker 3: lost was it Max Granville earlier this year? You know,
• 16:03
  Speaker 3: he made that choice to go to Penn State just
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: because of the attacking defensive line, you know, versus kind
• 16:09
  Speaker 3: of what we ran and Gyminals runs a little bit
• 16:12
  Speaker 3: more something like that. He's very very comfortable with that.
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: It did it. Did he want one final massive contract
• 16:18
  Speaker 3: before he rides off in the sunset and retires. Maybe so,
• 16:22
  Speaker 3: But like I said, I just wanted, you know, I
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: wanted him here. I think a lot more for the optics,
• 16:28
  Speaker 3: a lot more for more defensive minds out here. But
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: like I said, I don't you know, the defense is
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: not something that I think that I wanted to put
• 16:37
  Speaker 3: a massive focus on in the off season. It was
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: the offense. It was a quarterback. We got those, Yep,
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: now we move on.
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: So yeah, exactly, That's exactly where I'm at. It had
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: been great and yes, hyping it up into talking about it, yes,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: exciting because it had been pretty cool if we were
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: to land another great defensive mind on staff, but we
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: don't need him.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: It would have been cool to do it.
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: Hints why we talked about it as a cool addition,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: not something that we felt like was a definitive or
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: a must need or requirement. It would have just been
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: fun to see these two minds out there trying to
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: disassemble the SEC. That's what got my attention. That's what
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: fascinated me the most. That would have been really cool.
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: But I totally get why Penn State made the move too.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: They're desperate.
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: I mean, I know that brit Vnable's seat is super hot.
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: They getting kind of tired of James Franklin being four
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: and twenty against top ten teams. Yeah, go look at
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: their boards. The fans are losing their mind. They're tired
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: of always coming up short. They know their damn game.
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: All those fans feel like they should have won it.
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: Even though their quarterback didn't complete a single pass to
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: a wide receiver. They felt like they should have won
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: that game. They're getting to that point where it's like
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: it keeps butting against the edge and they're just not
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: moving past the ceiling. And I think that that's something
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: that they're desperate.
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: They need that. And then they lost Tom Allen to
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: Clemson right over of their nose.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Nobody knew it. It's no different in Ohio State. He's like,
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: wait a minute, Jim knows wants to leave. Why do
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I tell us we didn't get the email? Where was
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: the carrier pigeon? Nobody told him.
• 18:11
  Speaker 3: Nobody's shopping around. And I will and I will say,
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: though I am not the massive fan of you know,
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: the proxy argument of well they beat that team, and
• 18:21
  Speaker 3: so we beat them some means were better than that
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: really doesn't work out like that. It's about matchups more.
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: But like the you know, they were barely I mean
• 18:29
  Speaker 3: they barely lost that game against Notre Dame, and the
• 18:32
  Speaker 3: Notre Dame actually just went out and got waxed. So,
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: you know, I don't think that he, you know, Jim
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: Knowles looked at the situations like, well, Penn State's closer
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: than Oklahoma is or anything like that. I think it's
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: just like he went out and got the best you know,
• 18:44
  Speaker 3: contract that his agent could get him, and it's not.
• 18:48
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm just saying it's either you're either first year,
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: last little Ricky Bobby action and it doesn't look like
• 18:53
  Speaker 3: Penn State was a move away because Penn State's issue
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: has never been defense. It's always been what they throw
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: out there at offense and at quarterbacks every year, every
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: single year. Does not matter who it is, it does
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: not matter. It just does not matter. It's it's whatever
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: the quarterback is, whatever's NFL projection is, any of that stuff.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: You can't compete a you know, a ball to wide receiver,
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: you got the tight ends, he leaned on some running game.
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: They it's just the same thing. And so he's going
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: to go there, and again, I think Penn State is
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: probably going to be in the mix again next year
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: for you know, the playoffs, that's going to be good
• 19:27
  Speaker 3: for them. But you know he also has to turn
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: around and play, you know, go against Ohio State at
• 19:34
  Speaker 3: some point if you're Penn State, and we'll see what happens.
• 19:37
  Speaker 3: So but you know, we missed out on it. Like
• 19:40
  Speaker 3: I said, defense is going to be something that's going
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: to be good, and need our offense to show up
• 19:46
  Speaker 3: and be part of the game too.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm intrigued to see. They'll have Oregon come to town,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: They'll travel to Ohio State. Indiana's going to come to town.
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: That's honestly it that's your schedule.
• 20:00
  Speaker 5: The problem in Penn State just has to put out
• 20:02
  Speaker 5: a competent offense. Like you know, last year we talked about, Oh,
• 20:05
  Speaker 5: you need to go out there and score twenty five
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: to thirty points a.
• 20:07
  Speaker 4: Game on offense. It's all Penn State needs to do.
• 20:10
  Speaker 5: The problem is Oklahoma might be closer than Penn State
• 20:14
  Speaker 5: because at least Oklahoma over the years has been able
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: to flip flop from offense to defense. Penn State has
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: been searching for this offense for like twenty years.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: And just cracks me up with like the Drew Aler
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: talk or whatnot. I don't think Drew Awler is a
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: bad quarterback, but I see him struggle against really good defenses.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: So I'm guessing adding Jim Knowles will allow for them
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: to be able to do better scouting, I guess, in practice,
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: and make Drew Aler get forged in fire.
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: I guess.
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I've not seen the allure of him
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: at quarterback at all. That's the one thing I have
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: not seen, like at all. I have yet to understand
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: why everyone is excited about Drew Aller, Like I haven't
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: seen him take the team, put him on his back,
• 20:53
  Speaker 1: and go out there and make it something happen.
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: I haven't seen him do it yet.
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: Give Drew to like a great offensive mind, and he'd
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: be a great quarterback, but at Penn State he'll never
• 21:03
  Speaker 5: be anything.
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: I don't think he has it in them. I be honest,
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: I just don't. I've never seen him.
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: I need to see a Penn State quarterback succeed like that.
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: And I'm not talking. Yeah, let's get some you know,
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: barely colored TV out from the eighties when they were good,
• 21:18
  Speaker 3: like it's it is what it is, and and so.
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: Heck, we've watched Dylan Gabriel go out there and win
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: us a game like we've seen him do it once before.
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: We saw him doing it at Oregon too, So that's
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: kind of my point, right, So I see what you're saying, Coop.
• 21:33
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And and guys, I mean, we saw this. We
• 21:37
  Speaker 3: allowed ourselves and I'm gonna be included. I allowed myself
• 21:41
  Speaker 3: to put myself mentally in that spot. And I said
• 21:44
  Speaker 3: on Thursday, I think that the decision was known one
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: way or the other, uh, you know, in some of
• 21:47
  Speaker 3: our text messages, you know, back and forth. I didn't
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: know which way it was, but I figured it was
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: done at that point. I thought that the parade would
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: either be used as a as you know, a distraction
• 22:00
  Speaker 3: or not when it all comes down to it, man,
• 22:04
  Speaker 3: you know, I just we've seen our steals. We went
• 22:06
  Speaker 3: and stole Dylan Gabriel out from campus at UCLA.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: We've done a year.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: We got Don Williams in the off season, you know,
• 22:14
  Speaker 3: not even a year ago, and that was the biggest piece.
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: John Metier was the number one player in the transfer
• 22:20
  Speaker 3: portal they most sought after OC. So I think that
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: if you're one of the doomers out there and you're like, man,
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: we can't win anything. I mean, I just listed out
• 22:28
  Speaker 3: several Like again, Jometier was the number one transfer player.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: We got him our buckle. Ever, a lot of other
• 22:35
  Speaker 3: people wanting them, Miami is wanting them, a lot of
• 22:37
  Speaker 3: teams were wanting them, and we got him. So I mean,
• 22:40
  Speaker 3: there are ws that are happening. It's just let's let's
• 22:43
  Speaker 3: not be super selective about, you know, putting two times
• 22:46
  Speaker 3: emphasis on the losses as the wins.
• 22:49
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, it's partially.
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: I think it's partially our fault as well, because I
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: don't think we talk about the massive wins that and
• 22:56
  Speaker 5: this could be for any program.
• 22:58
  Speaker 4: I don't think this is just Oklahoma problem.
• 23:00
  Speaker 5: We don't talk about the massive wins that these programs
• 23:02
  Speaker 5: have and keeping players on their team like.
• 23:06
  Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I can't remember who it was.
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: Somebody in the National Championship talked about how the reason
• 23:11
  Speaker 5: why Notre Dame in Ohio State were so good this
• 23:14
  Speaker 5: year was because they had one of the best rob
• 23:18
  Speaker 5: roster retentions in college football.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: And I think we underscore.
• 23:24
  Speaker 5: That so often, Like we always talk about who can
• 23:25
  Speaker 5: go out there and get but we don't talk about
• 23:28
  Speaker 5: the massive wins and keeping a guy like Jayden Jackson
• 23:31
  Speaker 5: or an R Mason Thomas are convincing a guy to
• 23:33
  Speaker 5: come back for one more year because that costs more
• 23:37
  Speaker 5: money an argument than it would to go get somebody
• 23:40
  Speaker 5: else in the transfer portal.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and a few people have talked about this too,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: that that the big problem to a pen stated their
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: wide receivers aren't elite, like they don't have really really
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: good wide receivers. Like I totally get that. I mean,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: they just saw a whole bunch of dudes lead to
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: a wide receiver because they don't have quote unquote e
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: leage wide receiver play. The other thing, too, is that
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: at wide receiver that seems to be the position that
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: when you go portal you can go find dudes anywhere,
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Like most schools can go bring in a whole slew
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: of new wide receivers and boom, they're really good.
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: Shout out to Texas.
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: They brought in four new ones and that basically was
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: their entire wide receiver room at that point for the
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: next season. It works if you have a quarterback and
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: an offensive coordinator that's worked together. The one thing that
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: I like to point out for Oklahoma is this is
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: why I'm Sewan Brian Odam right now, because I would
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: love for him to go ahead and come here as
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: our defensive coordinator or just linebacker coach. He can come
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: here a lineback coach. I think he'd be fantastic. Is
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: that as long as you've got a quarterback and offensive
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: coordinator that's been together for a few years, things usually
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: work out well. And that's exactly what we saw with
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: That's what we're getting out of joh Materier and been
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: our bocal. They've been together for the last few years
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: and that's gonna change the game here. So shout out
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: to cog bij thanks for the nine nine cents. We
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: appreciate that contribution. But to me, I think we're fine.
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: So that means it's talking about the most important stuff.
• 25:01
  Speaker 1: Thank y'all for pulling up to the channel. Hit the
• 25:05
  Speaker 1: light button. If you knew to the channel, subscribe, rate review,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: give us five. We got almost eight hundred people in
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: between X and YouTube was a YouTube.
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: Just under two hundred.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and run those numbers up on the
• 25:16
  Speaker 1: like and share why because sharing is caring coop PG.
• 25:23
  Speaker 2: This weekend was a big weekend.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: I saw I've been seeing social media posts like crazy
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: talk to me PG, how do you feel about this
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: Junior weekends. I'm gonna put up the names of folks
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: that that's pulled. I'm gonna pull up the list of
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: players that actually came through so everybody can sing, Hold up,
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: we got one from David David ten Bucks, thank you
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: so much. We appreciate that. Why not pay the asking price?
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: I think that's ways we're saying asking price. I don't
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: think the asking price was the problem. I just think
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: that Jim decided that he would prefer to go to
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Penn State rather than come to Oklahoma. It's gonna be honest.
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: I don't think the asking price was the problem. I
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: heard that we were right there in numbers, and we
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: would have went up if he wanted to continue to
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: go up. But I think that just decided that Penn
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: State was there. And uh, and this is a good question,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: real quick, Stacey asks, is there any bad blood between
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: BV and Brian Odham being let go from his initial staff.
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: Brian Odham wasn't let go. Brian Odham actually left and
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: went to USC because he didn't know if he was
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: going to be retained by the new staff, so he
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: went ahead and jumped ahead of it before he had
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: the opportunity of being fired. I think that was more
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: of a fear of getting getting more of a fear
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: of getting let go rather than So I don't think
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: that there's any black blood Coop.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: And I mean, if I'm I'm going one hundred percent
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: off the memory on this one, I'm pretty sure that
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: he was on a recruiting visit like hours before he
• 27:00
  Speaker 3: actually took the job with USC, So I mean, like
• 27:02
  Speaker 3: he was still fulfilling his job and everything at that point.
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: It was seemed like a it seemed like Shenanigans, like
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: more Lincoln Raley shenanigans that he was like, you know,
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: tampering with what we were doing. But number one, he's
• 27:15
  Speaker 3: on defense and Lincoln doesn't understand that side of the ball.
• 27:17
  Speaker 3: So but he was here still doing his job. So
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I like it. But then also
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: like I don't think that, you know, we kind of
• 27:26
  Speaker 3: talked about it. I don't think that Jim Knowles, I mean,
• 27:29
  Speaker 3: he is from Pennsylvania, So Kyle, you got that one
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: right there. Jim Knowles also was going to be the
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: same type of full responsibility for what we were kind
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: of asking of him. So do you pay three and
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: a half million dollars for a guy who's not going
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: to do all the requested you know, things that a
• 27:49
  Speaker 3: DC was going to do. We said he was kind
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: of like icing on the cake.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I don't think he was the cake. I
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: think he was the icing and not everybody does icing.
• 27:58
  Speaker 5: Know what.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: I kind of want some yellow cake with chocolate icing.
• 28:01
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 28:01
  Speaker 1: I've been thinking about that for the last few days.
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: I have to do that when I get back in town.
• 28:05
  Speaker 5: Anyway, Le then you don't want me calling the defense.
• 28:09
  Speaker 5: I would you should see me and.
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: Who do not want?
• 28:12
  Speaker 4: I want you?
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: I've seen Tim on NCAA. You do not want PG
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: to touch any side of the.
• 28:19
  Speaker 3: Field zero blittz five wide or or literally.
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: Covers zero non stop. He's gonna throw it deep.
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: Just I'd be sitting people home all day.
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: Max protect and just launch it. It's it just Max
• 28:35
  Speaker 2: protect and launch it. On a minute. It works, all right.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: So we had Junior Weekend this past weekend, and so
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: of course a substantial amount of big time recruits pulled
• 28:45
  Speaker 1: up into town. Oklahoma has some big name players in town,
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: and we're gonna look through some of these. Of course,
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: you've got your main guy here, j O'Neill, the cornerstone
• 28:55
  Speaker 1: of your recruiting class. He was here hanging out with
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: some of the Oklahoma players like Mason James as well
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: as Kad Cayden Jones, who I think, Oh man, that'd
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: be great to be able to match all of them together,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: keep some in state talent while at the same time
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: bringing in some greatness from California. Then of course Rider
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: Mix was in PG. When it comes to the players
• 29:22
  Speaker 1: that pulled up, what have you heard that you can
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: share and pretty excited about?
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 29:30
  Speaker 5: So, I mean, I think everybody saw Caden Jones at
• 29:33
  Speaker 5: Mason James post with Jaden O'Neil, and those have been
• 29:37
  Speaker 5: long standing relationships. Since Jaden's committed, those are two of
• 29:40
  Speaker 5: his priority targets. I'm still on the train of I
• 29:43
  Speaker 5: don't think we see them commit to sometime after the
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: spring game timeline, so in between spring game too, maybe June.
• 29:52
  Speaker 4: In that time, I think that's when you see them.
• 29:54
  Speaker 5: Remember, they're being recruited by heavy schools like Tennessee and
• 29:57
  Speaker 5: Alabama recruiting Mason James really hard, and then you've got
• 30:01
  Speaker 5: Cayden Jones. You've got Tennessee pulling up on him and
• 30:04
  Speaker 5: It's interesting because Josh Hipel knows about the talent here
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: in Oklahoma and he's gonna continue to try to pursue it.
• 30:10
  Speaker 5: So and I think Mason James also being recruited by Michigan.
• 30:13
  Speaker 5: But I don't think Sharon more in that staff's really
• 30:16
  Speaker 5: made a ton of strides there. I think it's really
• 30:19
  Speaker 5: just Alabama and Tennessee that's gonna give Oklahoma fits for
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: Mason James. But ultimately, as long as Jade O'Neil stays
• 30:25
  Speaker 5: committed in this class, which I think he will, I
• 30:28
  Speaker 5: think you can land of both of those guys. Now,
• 30:31
  Speaker 5: some of the guys that came in this weekend that
• 30:34
  Speaker 5: actually intrigued me outside of maybe some of the names
• 30:37
  Speaker 5: you've seen on Twitter like Vallad and Stone and guys
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: like who we definitely want, are two Texas A and
• 30:42
  Speaker 5: M guys, markl Ford and Ryan Gilbert. Ryan Gilbert place corner.
• 30:49
  Speaker 5: Mark heil Ford plays safety. These are two guys that
• 30:53
  Speaker 5: I don't think.
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: Their commitments are gonna hold A and M.
• 30:56
  Speaker 5: They're gonna be taking many other visits and I think
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: they're both planning to come back in the spring. Markel
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: Ford I actually have slated in my class predictions.
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: I actually didn't even have Gilbert on my radar up
• 31:08
  Speaker 4: until this week.
• 31:09
  Speaker 5: So this is gonna be interesting to see, you know,
• 31:11
  Speaker 5: if Oklahoma's gonna start trying to go out there and
• 31:15
  Speaker 5: be the aggressor and flip from schools that have historically
• 31:18
  Speaker 5: kind of it feels like beat us all the time.
• 31:21
  Speaker 5: So that was nice to have those guys on there.
• 31:24
  Speaker 5: But I'm curious. I gotta fallo with walden Stone. I
• 31:27
  Speaker 5: was gonna give him till about Monday and then I
• 31:29
  Speaker 5: was gonna hit him up. And then, uh, the guy
• 31:31
  Speaker 5: out of Ohio State, I'm gonna butcher his name, it's
• 31:34
  Speaker 5: his name is it's sincerely here Johnson.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: That the first before you get on Sincere This kid,
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: mm hmmm. It's big boy.
• 31:45
  Speaker 4: Oh he's big.
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: He's legitimate in his size. That's the crazy part.
• 31:51
  Speaker 5: And I think we're gonna land him. I think we
• 31:52
  Speaker 5: have a really good shot. Early, it seems like we
• 31:55
  Speaker 5: have a really good shot to go out there and
• 31:56
  Speaker 5: land a guy like that.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: Now, look at him compared it to BV just standing
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: there next to look at that. And Bv's not a
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: little dude, we all know that, but look at him.
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: Look at the wide shoulders, look at the wide bass.
• 32:07
  Speaker 3: And his name is V and he's with coach V.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: And I mean that just that whole interaction was just
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: you know, kind of made me happy just watching that.
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: And yeah, you know again it's all this stuff was
• 32:19
  Speaker 3: going on while all this, you know, the whole fan
• 32:21
  Speaker 3: base was tied up with the DC stuff, and you know,
• 32:24
  Speaker 3: this is it's back it. You know, I saw who
• 32:26
  Speaker 3: who was it in here? Somebody made a comment about
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: you know, he says, twenty six the truth I got you, brother,
• 32:32
  Speaker 3: like it says, you know, the twenty six year seems
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: like Shenanigan's. But that's like, I mean, we're probably going
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: to see commitments from a lot of these guys in yeah, May, June, July, August,
• 32:43
  Speaker 3: you know, so this is it's game time for twenty six.
• 32:47
  Speaker 3: You know, the twenty seven class, outside of one or
• 32:49
  Speaker 3: two people, was done extremely early. So PG, we had
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: a dust PG off, take the take the you know,
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: the blower, get all the dust off PG and get
• 32:58
  Speaker 3: him back to back because it's been a minute.
• 33:00
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it wouldn't it be fun to have two Stones
• 33:03
  Speaker 5: on the defensive line.
• 33:05
  Speaker 4: They would just fight a third one.
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I'd be nice to have like collect
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: infinity stones, because no, look at him, he's legitimately immediately
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: puts this this picture of him with with.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: With uh with everybody.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: See if this actually lets me do it? Oh it
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: went too big, my bad. Guys, look at it. He's
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: legitimately six five pounds a man, that is a man.
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: Get him huge, huge human being, huge human being. Imagine
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: him on that defensive one.
• 33:41
  Speaker 3: Imagine him in the interior. Man that takes away pockets.
• 33:46
  Speaker 3: When you know, when I see guys like him, I
• 33:48
  Speaker 3: think of guys like Kalais Campbell who have just because
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: of their measurables, not the running, jumping, any of that stuff,
• 33:55
  Speaker 3: but just the whole six six three twenty and stuff
• 33:58
  Speaker 3: like that that extends you because all you got to
• 34:01
  Speaker 3: do if you can't get there, hands up, because now
• 34:04
  Speaker 3: all of a sudden there's a seven foot plus wall.
• 34:06
  Speaker 3: You know, you got to throw over us quarterback and
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: that's that takes away you know, that takes away angles.
• 34:11
  Speaker 3: How many times have we watched order quarterbacks? You know,
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: at me and Oklahoma guy, like watch Baker Mayfield in
• 34:16
  Speaker 3: the NFL, watch Kyler in the NFL. You know, watching
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: any of these guys in the NFL, and the ball
• 34:21
  Speaker 3: is just he never gets past the line of scrimmage
• 34:23
  Speaker 3: and you you know, they show it again and you're like,
• 34:26
  Speaker 3: there's no arm angle that you're gonna get around that guy.
• 34:28
  Speaker 3: He was just right there in your face and it's
• 34:30
  Speaker 3: game over.
• 34:31
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 34:32
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Do you guys know how big Stone actually is.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: I mean, he's a legitimate sixty five three.
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, three twenty and he don't look three twenty, doesn't.
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: He is a wide shoulders though, Like that's the crazy part.
• 34:46
  Speaker 5: But he's gonna be one where I think this recruitment
• 34:49
  Speaker 5: that could go well into the summer, maybe longer. Like
• 34:52
  Speaker 5: I mean, he's got Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Florida State, LSU, Nebraska, Miami,
• 34:58
  Speaker 5: Penn State, A and m so, like all of his
• 35:00
  Speaker 5: offers are all power for offers and they're all like
• 35:04
  Speaker 5: sec big ten offers, every single one of them.
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: And we talked about linebacker coach, so PGS you were
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: going into. You're talking about Sincere Johnson. This is this
• 35:17
  Speaker 1: is you got Sincere And I mean if you look
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: at the coaching staff, there there's your linebacker coach right there. Skalsey.
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: You know he's he's he's taking care of it. Combination
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: of him, you got a lost man. But look, look
• 35:28
  Speaker 1: look at the kid, big boy. Since here's another big,
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: nice size line back A six three two thirty five,
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: and rumor has it he really really likes preventables. So
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: we we're building that pipeline to the state of Ohio.
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: Shout out to my guy RP two Reggie Powers A
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: second Powers Junior, My apologies, Reggie Powers, the father of
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: Reggie Powers. Third, that man is gonna is going to
• 35:51
  Speaker 1: connect us heavily into that state Ohio and continue that pipeline.
• 35:55
  Speaker 5: Yes, last season, this kid had one hundred and twenty
• 35:59
  Speaker 5: one tackles, twenty four tackles for lost, seven sacks, and
• 36:02
  Speaker 5: three forced fumbles. Jesus Christ like yeah, like this, this
• 36:06
  Speaker 5: dude in a Brint Viable's defense is gonna eat no.
• 36:08
  Speaker 5: So again, it's this is all about, you know, trying
• 36:11
  Speaker 5: to rebuild into that Ohio pipeline a little bit because
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: they actually turn out some decent players. I believe it's
• 36:19
  Speaker 5: Jack Sawyer came from the state of Ohio.
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: Well, yeah, Ohio puts out a lot of talent. That's
• 36:23
  Speaker 1: why Ohio state's always so good they put out town.
• 36:26
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but this is the top, this is the top
• 36:28
  Speaker 5: one hundred, dude, So Oklahoma kind of got in here.
• 36:31
  Speaker 5: I would I'm not gonna say late, but you know
• 36:34
  Speaker 5: later in some of the other schools. But it's sixt three,
• 36:35
  Speaker 5: two undred and twenty five. Like, I think this is
• 36:37
  Speaker 5: probably your is gonna be one of your highest ranked
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: linebacker commits if you land this guy. He loves Oklahoma
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: so far from just the initial conversations, even with us
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: kind of have an in limbo a linebacker's coach and
• 36:51
  Speaker 5: a defensive coordinator. You'd imagine Burn Vinibles is kind of
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: leading the charge here on some of this. And I
• 36:56
  Speaker 5: think you're gonna start to see Burn Vitibles become more
• 36:58
  Speaker 5: heavily involved in recruit linebackers because we've missed on some
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: bigger fish that Brent Vinables just hasn't necessarily been in
• 37:06
  Speaker 5: the recruitments for.
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: And I think that's about to start to change.
• 37:08
  Speaker 5: I think Brent Vinables wants to start landing the Sammy
• 37:11
  Speaker 5: Browns of the world and things like that, things that
• 37:13
  Speaker 5: he was already doing at Clemson. Yeah, and he had
• 37:16
  Speaker 5: to be involved at Clemson, like he couldn't just let
• 37:18
  Speaker 5: Wes Goodwin do it at Clemson.
• 37:20
  Speaker 4: He had to help do it at some level.
• 37:21
  Speaker 5: And I think you're about to see Brittan Vinables maybe
• 37:24
  Speaker 5: start to step into that role a little bit more
• 37:25
  Speaker 5: as well. So yeah, no, this is one that I
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: was really excited about, and we're yeah, he'll be phoning
• 37:32
  Speaker 5: tomorrow and we're gonna have him on as well to
• 37:34
  Speaker 5: connect with him. So it'd be exciting wide receiver though.
• 37:38
  Speaker 5: Daniel Odom was a guy from Saint John Bosco that.
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: Come to campus.
• 37:45
  Speaker 5: Yes, that's interesting. There was a name that a lot
• 37:49
  Speaker 5: of people kinda are a little high on. I'm I'm
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: gonna hold my reservations. I don't know if we're gonna
• 37:57
  Speaker 5: go out and get a wide receiver from Saint John Bosco.
• 37:59
  Speaker 5: But there is an interior defensive lineman that Todd Bates
• 38:03
  Speaker 5: has been recruiting pretty heavily. I believe his last name's
• 38:07
  Speaker 5: a Maso or a Masa, so I know he really
• 38:11
  Speaker 5: wants to come here. He was looking for a PW.
• 38:13
  Speaker 5: He did not take a visit this weekend. Yeah, he's
• 38:16
  Speaker 5: waiting for like a PWO or just some sort of offer.
• 38:19
  Speaker 5: So maybe if we get that guy maybe Odams and
• 38:23
  Speaker 5: the cards, but outside of the visitors, man, like this
• 38:26
  Speaker 5: was a big weekend. Like this weekend really starts to
• 38:29
  Speaker 5: set up what your recruiting scene is going to look
• 38:33
  Speaker 5: like for the upcoming year, right, you know, this is
• 38:35
  Speaker 5: where you start to build momentum these next two along
• 38:38
  Speaker 5: with this one, or really how you start to build
• 38:40
  Speaker 5: out who you identify as people that you want to
• 38:43
  Speaker 5: heavily target, who are going to be your priority targets. Right,
• 38:46
  Speaker 5: you know these guys that show up this weekend and
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: then are going to show up back for the spring game,
• 38:51
  Speaker 5: those are obviously going to be guys that you probably
• 38:53
  Speaker 5: are going to end up in the top three for
• 38:55
  Speaker 5: guys that you're gonna be heavily.
• 38:57
  Speaker 4: In the running.
• 38:57
  Speaker 5: So Duce Gilbert or or Ryan Gilbert, markl Ford, those
• 39:01
  Speaker 5: are both guys that are coming back. Obviously, Mason James
• 39:04
  Speaker 5: and Kayden Jones are coming back. Jayde and O'Neills will
• 39:07
  Speaker 5: probably be coming back as well for that point. So
• 39:09
  Speaker 5: you know, these are all guys that Oklahoma will be
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: able to identify throughout the rest of the next couple
• 39:15
  Speaker 5: of months prioritize be able to lock and official visits
• 39:18
  Speaker 5: for you know, some of these guys they've even taken
• 39:21
  Speaker 5: in home visits to over the past couple of weeks.
• 39:24
  Speaker 5: So yeah, no, it was a good recruiting weekend so
• 39:27
  Speaker 5: far from what from what we've gathered. Uh, but yeah,
• 39:30
  Speaker 5: I will follow up, but more guys probably on Monday,
• 39:32
  Speaker 5: I usually because Sunday travel days.
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: Sunday's travel day, right, But no fair point, but it's
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: it's just the players themselves that we have interest. Daniel
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: Oldham and I kind of like your point there. Saint
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: John's Bosco kind of tough, but we've seen Emma Jones
• 39:48
  Speaker 1: go out there like for real, like he's been spending
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: a lot of time at at the California Schools really
• 39:58
  Speaker 1: working heavy inside of trying to get some of those
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: guys not only on at wide.
• 40:04
  Speaker 2: Receiver but other positions. This one is, this one could
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: be a big one if we can get it.
• 40:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I asked somebody about him the other day.
• 40:10
  Speaker 5: That's kind of out in that area, and I mean,
• 40:14
  Speaker 5: I think it's gonna come down to, you know, that
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: whole family dynamic thing that we usually see you where
• 40:20
  Speaker 5: parents get involved and drive the recruitment, and so that's
• 40:24
  Speaker 5: kind of where I look at Daniel Odom and go,
• 40:26
  Speaker 5: I just don't know this early. Like, it's not one
• 40:29
  Speaker 5: of those wide receivers like an algeor Miles that I
• 40:31
  Speaker 5: look at and go, oh yeah, I think Oklahoma's.
• 40:33
  Speaker 4: Gonna land that guy.
• 40:34
  Speaker 5: Like right now, I think I could look at three
• 40:36
  Speaker 5: wide receivers in this glass and go, Oklahoma's gonna land
• 40:39
  Speaker 5: those guys.
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: Right right? Go ahead, p Coop, I'm sorry, no, yeah,
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: Coop saying.
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: You had talked about this kid aws your miles, you
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: had mentioned him to me or whatnot? How you feel
• 40:56
  Speaker 1: about him?
• 40:58
  Speaker 5: You know, this is one where I I think anytime
• 41:00
  Speaker 5: he's on campus from here on out, I think we
• 41:04
  Speaker 5: could see him commit.
• 41:06
  Speaker 4: He's a guy that we were his first offer.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 41:09
  Speaker 5: He's a really good relationship with Emma Jones almost committed
• 41:13
  Speaker 5: last year. And it's one of those things where he's
• 41:17
  Speaker 5: a big body. He's six two, two hundred pounds es I.
• 41:23
  Speaker 5: He's your Emmanuel choice of this class.
• 41:25
  Speaker 4: Right.
• 41:25
  Speaker 5: He's one of those underrated wide receivers in a smaller,
• 41:29
  Speaker 5: you know, district in Texas that I think a lot
• 41:33
  Speaker 5: of schools are going to overlook until the very end
• 41:36
  Speaker 5: when they're out of luck. On some of the wide
• 41:38
  Speaker 5: receiver targets they were after. But by that point, I
• 41:41
  Speaker 5: think he'll be locked in with Oklahoma. I think this
• 41:43
  Speaker 5: is a guy that I think Oklahoma at this point
• 41:45
  Speaker 5: will land al Geor Miles is an incredible prospect.
• 41:49
  Speaker 3: Bro.
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: He's six, He's he on his on his ex account,
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: he has himself listed sixty three to two oh five
• 41:57
  Speaker 1: four five forty. But he caught seventy eight catches for
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: fourteen hundred and fifty yards fourteen touchdowns. Then he had
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: twenty pancakes.
• 42:05
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 42:06
  Speaker 1: I like the fact that he emphasized that he had pancakes.
• 42:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah. This is the guy that I will probably try
• 42:11
  Speaker 4: to get out there to go see this year.
• 42:13
  Speaker 5: Like Collins talked about it a couple times in his
• 42:16
  Speaker 5: podcast that he does with us Sooner as Illustrated right
• 42:19
  Speaker 5: this he's a really.
• 42:20
  Speaker 4: Fun guy to go watch. So I'm definitely gonna try
• 42:22
  Speaker 4: to get out there and go see him.
• 42:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: I may make that because that's outside of Dallas, so
• 42:27
  Speaker 1: that's not too bad. It's what about four hours? Yeah, yeah,
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: not to know who they play, I had to go
• 42:35
  Speaker 1: look at their schedule. They may be something considered take
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: a Friday drive.
• 42:39
  Speaker 3: Now, I will say that. The thing with aljour that
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: that I want to see is how does he continue
• 42:44
  Speaker 3: to work on the speed, you know, effective speed. You
• 42:48
  Speaker 3: know he's got the big body. The guy just let
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: he's he's human human high point, but that it's it's
• 42:56
  Speaker 3: guys like that, who are guys that you want to
• 42:59
  Speaker 3: kind of I guess hit your name too, because anybody
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: who goes out there and says, hey, guys, I am
• 43:04
  Speaker 3: really good at blocking as a wide receiver and puts
• 43:06
  Speaker 3: pancakes out there like I want him in that in
• 43:09
  Speaker 3: the house every single day.
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: Of the week. Yeah, yep, yeah, And he likes to block.
• 43:14
  Speaker 1: That's just you don't get that very often. Like how
• 43:16
  Speaker 1: many how many kids you know koped it liked to
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: block like that.
• 43:21
  Speaker 3: I know, I know some defensive ends that were five stars.
• 43:24
  Speaker 3: They don't like to block.
• 43:28
  Speaker 4: Jimmy Saderfield asked about any five stars. I know he's
• 43:30
  Speaker 4: wish list.
• 43:31
  Speaker 5: I have not followed up if Davian Gross actually made
• 43:34
  Speaker 5: it to campus. There there there there was a lot
• 43:37
  Speaker 5: of speculation that he would. His teammate writer Mix was
• 43:41
  Speaker 5: on campus. So hopefully on by Monday we'll find out
• 43:45
  Speaker 5: whether David Gross actually was on campus.
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: I expected him to be. So that's the five that's
• 43:50
  Speaker 4: that's the five star wide receiver.
• 43:52
  Speaker 5: I would when when you think of David Gross, think
• 43:55
  Speaker 5: of Deebo Samuel out at the forty nine ers.
• 43:58
  Speaker 4: That's what he is.
• 43:59
  Speaker 5: He's a receiver that can kind of go into some
• 44:02
  Speaker 5: running back packages a little bit, and then also another.
• 44:06
  Speaker 4: Five star wide receiver.
• 44:07
  Speaker 5: Hilarious enough that Oklahoma is in on but they don't
• 44:11
  Speaker 5: have an offer out to it's five star wide receiver.
• 44:14
  Speaker 5: Tristan Keys. Oklahoma was not a name, just a name
• 44:19
  Speaker 5: on that top twelve. Really just putting that out there.
• 44:22
  Speaker 5: They were not just a name on that top twelve.
• 44:24
  Speaker 5: There is interest from Tristan Keys to come to Oklahoma,
• 44:27
  Speaker 5: but he does not have an offer yet.
• 44:28
  Speaker 4: I'm not sure why that is, but he does not
• 44:30
  Speaker 4: have an offer.
• 44:31
  Speaker 5: So what it Maybe we'll see an offer about Tristan
• 44:33
  Speaker 5: Keys and but that's gonna be an NIO recruitment all
• 44:36
  Speaker 5: the way down.
• 44:37
  Speaker 4: I know Tom Lloyd has a prediction in for Tennessee
• 44:39
  Speaker 4: at the moment.
• 44:40
  Speaker 5: He's out of Haddersburg, Mississippi, so Ole miss and Mississippi
• 44:43
  Speaker 5: State will do everything they can to keep him in state.
• 44:45
  Speaker 5: So even if Oklahoma gives an offer. I'm not counting
• 44:48
  Speaker 5: my cards there. I think David Gross is probably the
• 44:50
  Speaker 5: more likely candidate, just because with Davian Gross, you're gonna
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: have writer mix committed in this class. You have Jordan Deck,
• 44:59
  Speaker 5: the four stars who Oklahoma is going after. We'll have
• 45:02
  Speaker 5: to kind of see what's going on there, because I
• 45:04
  Speaker 5: know with Jordan Deck where it seemed last year. I
• 45:07
  Speaker 5: think we really felt like Jordan Deck might land in
• 45:09
  Speaker 5: this class. I think things have started to scale back
• 45:11
  Speaker 5: a little bit with some just an uncertainty of the
• 45:13
  Speaker 5: defensive coordinator and kind of what's going on with Brenton
• 45:17
  Speaker 5: Vinables and you know, hey, like will he be here
• 45:18
  Speaker 5: past next year? So but if Oklahoma can land Jordan Deck,
• 45:22
  Speaker 5: that gives you two of his teammates. There's another corner
• 45:24
  Speaker 5: out there that ja Vilai is potentially interested in.
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: We'll see if they're throw an offer out.
• 45:29
  Speaker 5: So we're gonna give Davian Gross a lot of reasons
• 45:32
  Speaker 5: to say yes. The only problem is you're gonna be
• 45:37
  Speaker 5: fighting Texas A and M for that one. But I
• 45:40
  Speaker 5: think Davian Gross is a guy that since he can
• 45:42
  Speaker 5: flex into two positions, you'll probably pay him a little
• 45:45
  Speaker 5: bit more.
• 45:46
  Speaker 3: Then you normally would and PG, let's not let's I mean,
• 45:51
  Speaker 3: the quarterback still plays plays a part in this. And
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: so you're gonna have those conversations from Jadon O'Neill having
• 45:57
  Speaker 3: conversations with some of these guys that he wants on
• 45:59
  Speaker 3: the team. And that's what makes some of these, you know,
• 46:01
  Speaker 3: the these marquee recruiting cycles really really big that you
• 46:05
  Speaker 3: hit and you get them, and whoever you get, just
• 46:07
  Speaker 3: you need to make sure that they end up on
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: the field and producing because you know this the projects.
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: The project's a little bit harder to swallow nowadays, but again,
• 46:17
  Speaker 3: watch for this. You know, the staff always has a
• 46:19
  Speaker 3: fast riser that ends up, you know as a super
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: super high three or a very low four star that
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: just keeps on going through the whole year. Do you
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: have a guy that's that is a potential fast river riser,
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: maybe a three star or four star that showed up
• 46:34
  Speaker 3: or OUs in on currently.
• 46:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, it's it's it's al Geor Miles on the offensive
• 46:38
  Speaker 5: side of the ball, a Doggor Miles, or a guy
• 46:40
  Speaker 5: that's not committed to Oklahoma currently committed to TCU that
• 46:44
  Speaker 5: I think if Oklahoma got into a situation where late
• 46:48
  Speaker 5: they needed to shift and find another wide receiver.
• 46:51
  Speaker 4: Bookmark the name Brock Boyd out of South Lake Carrol.
• 46:56
  Speaker 2: Brock Boys, South Lake Carrol, Okay.
• 46:59
  Speaker 4: Six to one and sixty five.
• 47:00
  Speaker 5: Do you guys know of another guy that came out
• 47:02
  Speaker 5: of South Lake Carroll that we just recently got Jacob Jordan.
• 47:06
  Speaker 4: Jacob Jordan, So.
• 47:09
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I just bookmarked that one in your book. But yeah,
• 47:13
  Speaker 5: it's it's it's Al Jordan Miles all the way He's
• 47:15
  Speaker 5: I think, I think that's a guy that's going to
• 47:17
  Speaker 5: rise into probably a top two to fifty status when
• 47:19
  Speaker 5: it's all said and done. I think he's a really
• 47:22
  Speaker 5: really good wide receiver. So and then on the defensive
• 47:25
  Speaker 5: side of the ball, it's got to be valid in Stone.
• 47:27
  Speaker 5: I don't think that's anybody that we've really talked about,
• 47:29
  Speaker 5: especially especially.
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: But yes, he playing with Stone name.
• 47:36
  Speaker 5: I like it though, especially on the defensive line where
• 47:39
  Speaker 5: we've talked about Deuce Gerald's and James Carrington and some
• 47:42
  Speaker 5: of those guys so often, I think we forget about him.
• 47:45
  Speaker 5: I think that's going to be a guy that Oklahoma
• 47:47
  Speaker 5: can sneakily go out there and get beat.
• 47:49
  Speaker 4: A lot of schools.
• 47:50
  Speaker 5: For Yeah, it's gonna be a fun year in recruiting
• 47:54
  Speaker 5: because these are going to be smaller classes, so you're
• 47:56
  Speaker 5: gonna see more intimacy between staff and recruit and they're
• 48:00
  Speaker 5: really going to prioritize some of these higher tier guys.
• 48:03
  Speaker 5: I think Oklahoma is ready to start playing ball pretty heavily,
• 48:07
  Speaker 5: not that they haven't in the past, but I think
• 48:09
  Speaker 5: they want to go out there and start shutting up
• 48:11
  Speaker 5: some of the haters. I think the staff has heard
• 48:13
  Speaker 5: this a lot, and I think they're ready to kind
• 48:15
  Speaker 5: of put that to bed. And I think you're starting
• 48:16
  Speaker 5: to see it with how they're recruiting this year.
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: Yeah, kJ Ford is another name that keeps jumping up
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: to my name and I and based upon one of
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: the articles, I think it was.
• 48:28
  Speaker 4: Will Fong dropped this event out of Duncanville. I think
• 48:32
  Speaker 4: this was if I remember correct when I was looking
• 48:34
  Speaker 4: to that.
• 48:34
  Speaker 5: I think this is seventh or eighth visit to Oklahoma,
• 48:37
  Speaker 5: which is absolutely insane. He he came to like three
• 48:41
  Speaker 5: or four games last year I out of Duncanville. Now
• 48:45
  Speaker 5: SMU and Texas are kind of really pushing for him.
• 48:47
  Speaker 5: But guys, I don't see how Oklahoma screws this up
• 48:52
  Speaker 5: at this point, like he loves Oklahoma, he loves the
• 48:55
  Speaker 5: family dynamic. Miguel Chavis has done an incredible job there,
• 48:58
  Speaker 5: and if we land a guy out of Duncanville, Texas,
• 49:02
  Speaker 5: that's a huge win. We haven't done that in a while.
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this I want, I want. I want Kevin Ford.
• 49:08
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Oh he's big. He's big. I've stood next to
• 49:11
  Speaker 4: him in person. He's big.
• 49:13
  Speaker 1: He's a legit, he's a legitimate sixty three and I
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: think he's he's bigger than the two in a quarter.
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: I think he's probably more two thirty five to forty
• 49:21
  Speaker 1: and it's like legitimate size guy. I would like him,
• 49:26
  Speaker 1: and he's gonna probably finish top fifty in the country.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: Oh.
• 49:30
  Speaker 5: All the recruitingside people that really want to know, Uh,
• 49:34
  Speaker 5: Colin Simmons for Texas, the guy stand out freshman at
• 49:37
  Speaker 5: defense came from Duncanville, so they know or something one
• 49:42
  Speaker 5: or two about developing defensive ends out there. Yeah, yeah,
• 49:47
  Speaker 5: he Colin Simmons was phenomenal for Texas by the way,
• 49:50
  Speaker 5: he really was like yeah, like super sad we missed
• 49:53
  Speaker 5: out of that guy.
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: And I'm gonna I'm gonna put together a video profiling
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: just going through Kevin Ford and some of his film.
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: He's got good hands, he gets around the edge easily,
• 50:04
  Speaker 1: he hits.
• 50:06
  Speaker 2: He's good.
• 50:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he's good, like real good.
• 50:11
  Speaker 5: I I always make an attempt to meet up with
• 50:13
  Speaker 5: him when he comes to the Norman for the football games.
• 50:16
  Speaker 4: He is a really fun guy to talk to, really
• 50:18
  Speaker 4: fun guy to talk to.
• 50:19
  Speaker 5: And again, to be honest, guys, when a player is
• 50:22
  Speaker 5: interacting with me, not really an insider, not at a
• 50:26
  Speaker 5: guy on a site, right, just a guy at the podcast,
• 50:29
  Speaker 5: that kind of tells you something a little bit like
• 50:32
  Speaker 5: I mean that that should tell you their interest level.
• 50:35
  Speaker 2: Fair point.
• 50:38
  Speaker 1: DJ Akerson. Randy Harris has posted about him. What do
• 50:42
  Speaker 1: you think about DJ getting his offer from Oklahoma and
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: where he is right here?
• 50:48
  Speaker 4: Do you get the guy out of the Putnam.
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: Putnam City athlete he's a legitimate six footer.
• 50:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so I reached out to him.
• 50:56
  Speaker 5: He's supposed to come on the podcast sometime next week.
• 50:59
  Speaker 5: I really like to prioritize guys out of the state
• 51:02
  Speaker 5: of Oklahoma. Okay preps guys, but this he's out of
• 51:05
  Speaker 5: Putnam City. So since he's here locally, actually probably right
• 51:08
  Speaker 5: down the road for me. I will actually go out
• 51:10
  Speaker 5: there to see him this year. Man, I don't really
• 51:13
  Speaker 5: don't know a whole lot about him yet, Like this
• 51:15
  Speaker 5: was one that I really did not have on my
• 51:17
  Speaker 5: radar to kind of have. But he's a wide receiver
• 51:20
  Speaker 5: outside linebacker for Putnam City. I believe it's Emmett Jones
• 51:24
  Speaker 5: recruiting him, so it sounds like they might want to
• 51:25
  Speaker 5: put him at linebacker. But he's six too, Like he's
• 51:28
  Speaker 5: gonna be another dude. But that wide receiver room, I'm
• 51:31
  Speaker 5: gonna be curious that they're gonna take more than four
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: guys because I feel like it's kind of packed right now.
• 51:38
  Speaker 4: So maybe three to four in this recruiting class.
• 51:41
  Speaker 5: So we'll see if a guy like dj Ackerson will
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: be able to commit early, and that might not be
• 51:50
  Speaker 5: something where he's able to commit till later down the
• 51:52
  Speaker 5: cycle if they need a wide receiver.
• 51:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah, non committable. And that's that's that's important to say that.
• 51:59
  Speaker 3: I mean I watched a little bit of his film
• 52:02
  Speaker 3: and when I saw the offer go out and when
• 52:05
  Speaker 3: you you said it right when you said it. He
• 52:07
  Speaker 3: plays outside linebacker a little bit too, So there's a
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: lot of these guys. There's Oklahoma kids are I've seen
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: a lot out of Oklahoma High School the past couple
• 52:17
  Speaker 3: of years. The ride receivers used to be just wide
• 52:21
  Speaker 3: receivers and now the blocking that's going into it and
• 52:23
  Speaker 3: what you know, what they're seeing out of college football
• 52:26
  Speaker 3: from more of the more of that spread it out,
• 52:29
  Speaker 3: get the ball out of people's hands, you know, get
• 52:30
  Speaker 3: it to your playmakers. And so I'm pretty excited about
• 52:35
  Speaker 3: some of the Okay preps, you know, in twenty fifty six.
• 52:38
  Speaker 5: And he's had so far in his two years on
• 52:41
  Speaker 5: varsity of Putnam City one hundred and ten total tackles
• 52:44
  Speaker 5: seven two solos, eight sacks, two interceptions, eight QB hurries,
• 52:48
  Speaker 5: which I always tell people is an important statistic that
• 52:50
  Speaker 5: a lot of people do not look at for defensive
• 52:52
  Speaker 5: linemen or linebackers. How many times are they pressuring the quarterback?
• 52:56
  Speaker 5: And then he has sixteen tackles for loss? So this
• 52:59
  Speaker 5: is the either can get home on the defensive side.
• 53:01
  Speaker 4: Of the wall. So it'd be interesting. I said, well,
• 53:04
  Speaker 4: I'll probably know more about him when I get that
• 53:06
  Speaker 4: chance to talk to him.
• 53:07
  Speaker 5: But there'll be another guy that will have to go
• 53:09
  Speaker 5: out and watch Jay, I think we're gonna have a
• 53:11
  Speaker 5: round of high school football to go see this year.
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: Oh Man, We're gonna have a lot of Fridays that
• 53:15
  Speaker 1: I have to find ways to get myself out of
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: my house.
• 53:17
  Speaker 5: For Hey, I think we're gonna have a good reason
• 53:21
  Speaker 5: to get out of our house on fridays here pretty soon.
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: I mean you say that.
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: I know that, Jay, but I'm about to find I'm
• 53:31
  Speaker 1: gonna find a way to get out there and get
• 53:33
  Speaker 1: go see some more high school ball. Well, we'll make
• 53:36
  Speaker 1: our way down for some I do. I do have
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: interest though, in going down to Kaufman and going to
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: check them out. Hearing that how exciting the ball is.
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: With God, I kind of want to get down there.
• 53:47
  Speaker 2: And see I do need to get down to Norman North,
• 53:51
  Speaker 2: see Mason James. Gotta go to Mustang, Gotta see.
• 53:53
  Speaker 3: Them Tulsa, go see Tar.
• 54:01
  Speaker 4: He was on campus this weekend.
• 54:03
  Speaker 1: Yes, taj Overton was was also listed as one of
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: the many Okay preps that did pull up. I did
• 54:09
  Speaker 1: see a picture of him. Shockingly, I don't see him
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: on this list anymore. He was there because I remember
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: seeing a picture of him.
• 54:16
  Speaker 5: That's a guy that I want that's a guy that
• 54:18
  Speaker 5: I need us to land super quickly. I want us
• 54:20
  Speaker 5: to lock him down because I feel like his recruitment,
• 54:23
  Speaker 5: if it starts to drag on, you're gonna see more
• 54:25
  Speaker 5: and more teams jumping on him.
• 54:28
  Speaker 2: I mean a lot of schools kind of do have
• 54:29
  Speaker 2: interest in him. I know that we pulled up and
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: saw him.
• 54:35
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he actually came to campus this weekend,
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: but he's okay prep that I definitely want to see here.
• 54:43
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and Taj, he's a guy who again also had
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: a great year. You know, it's it was a big
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: speA waso over time two point conversion. Hell of a
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: way to you know, ind the year for for their program.
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: But you know he'll be he'll be a senior and
• 55:01
  Speaker 3: he is going to We're going to see what he
• 55:03
  Speaker 3: looks like when the the hot and heavy is really
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: coming after him. You know, a lot of attention going
• 55:09
  Speaker 3: on nationally for his services. I mean, he is just
• 55:13
  Speaker 3: a study and as you can see right there, you know,
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: just had a little cleanup action going on.
• 55:17
  Speaker 5: You know.
• 55:18
  Speaker 3: So Taj Overton is a kid. We're going to have
• 55:20
  Speaker 3: a couple guys in the twenty six class. We've got
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: tash here and then twenty seven, we've got some more
• 55:26
  Speaker 3: guys here in the Tulsa area along the D line
• 55:29
  Speaker 3: who are going to be freaks and so pretty pretty
• 55:33
  Speaker 3: good opportunity in the Tulsa metro to come in and
• 55:36
  Speaker 3: see some some good football. So if you guys are
• 55:39
  Speaker 3: in the Tulsa go see. I mean, it means something
• 55:41
  Speaker 3: to these kids when you show up and you're screaming
• 55:43
  Speaker 3: at him and you know, hollering at them, because even
• 55:46
  Speaker 3: some of these early season kind of mixed scrimmages, you know,
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: these things have thirty forty thousand people out there watching football.
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: Truth mayn I want some more of these Tulsa boys
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: like this here desperately. I would like a lot of
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: them to go ahead and pull up and be sooner
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: as we got to figure out how to make that happen.
• 56:13
  Speaker 5: Well, and hope got to re kindle our Tulsa you
• 56:17
  Speaker 5: know pipe pipeline because Lincoln Riley.
• 56:20
  Speaker 4: I don't think you realize how bad he damaged that pipeline.
• 56:24
  Speaker 1: And I even think that even with who was it,
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: I mean, you still got Robert Spears Jennings, you got
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: Gentry Williams, got gentry as long as they shoulder cleans up.
• 56:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah on Jordan just you know, he played a little
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: bit at the end of the year last year. But
• 56:43
  Speaker 3: you know, the good thing is is outside of one
• 56:47
  Speaker 3: or two the Tulsa Metro or Tulsa's head coaches went
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: for a little jumble and shuffle this year. I mean,
• 56:55
  Speaker 3: you got its broken arrow jinks Owasso Union all with coaching.
• 57:00
  Speaker 3: You know, coaching changes a lot of big names, you know,
• 57:04
  Speaker 3: switching around. So you should be here right now if
• 57:09
  Speaker 3: you're this coaching staff rebuilding what was destroyed. But the
• 57:13
  Speaker 3: thing is is you're still the n State school. You're
• 57:15
  Speaker 3: still h you know, you want to get in and
• 57:18
  Speaker 3: you know, get somebody on your head, your your side
• 57:20
  Speaker 3: really really quick, do it right now. Just show up,
• 57:23
  Speaker 3: just be present, be there.
• 57:27
  Speaker 4: Agree.
• 57:28
  Speaker 2: Almost got some got some solid recruits coming for for
• 57:35
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty six.
• 57:37
  Speaker 5: And that's really not even all of it, Jay, Like,
• 57:39
  Speaker 5: I mean, there are some big time recruits that they're
• 57:41
  Speaker 5: going after and this could be another big year on
• 57:43
  Speaker 5: the offensive line for Oklahoma. And they really didn't even
• 57:46
  Speaker 5: have a big weekend there on that part. So the
• 57:50
  Speaker 5: next the next two recruiting visits are going to tell
• 57:54
  Speaker 5: you all you need to know about who Oklahoma's going
• 57:57
  Speaker 5: to go after and who Oklahoma is seriously interested. Like,
• 58:00
  Speaker 5: for example, if al Geor Miles shows up in February
• 58:03
  Speaker 5: for that recruiting weekend, he's probably committing at that.
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: One at the end of the month, believe so, or
• 58:11
  Speaker 1: the first weekends. I know that there's a dead period
• 58:13
  Speaker 1: in the middle of February.
• 58:15
  Speaker 4: It's it's either the first or the last. It might
• 58:17
  Speaker 4: be the first because.
• 58:18
  Speaker 5: I think there is a future March March eight, which
• 58:22
  Speaker 5: I think they'll have twenty twenty seven and twenty eight
• 58:25
  Speaker 5: and twenty six there at the same time.
• 58:26
  Speaker 4: They'll kind of mix in both.
• 58:28
  Speaker 2: Yeah, future Freaks will be March eight. I think.
• 58:32
  Speaker 1: I know we got a list over in the discord
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: of players as they pope that they're pulling up. We've
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: got a whole listing of them in there.
• 58:39
  Speaker 5: And that's and then a guy like and then a
• 58:43
  Speaker 5: guy like Jake Krule. I've been talking to him. He
• 58:48
  Speaker 5: is going to try to get up here for one
• 58:50
  Speaker 5: of the junior days, but he'll probably be up here
• 58:52
  Speaker 5: for just a spring game, coming from MIMG Academy. But
• 58:56
  Speaker 5: I would imagine if he's coming for the spring game
• 58:59
  Speaker 5: he might be bringing and some teammates for the spring game.
• 59:01
  Speaker 5: So I amg academy weekend for Oklahoma during the spring
• 59:04
  Speaker 5: game could be pretty big.
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a fair point. That's that's fair. Oh man.
• 59:10
  Speaker 3: Uh.
• 59:12
  Speaker 1: Chad Simmons just dropped an article about Sincere Johnson over
• 59:17
  Speaker 1: there on three on his first time this weekend, first
• 59:22
  Speaker 1: time visiting Oklahoma, and they made a grand first impression
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: on me, is what he said. They showed the history
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: and the level competition they have. And no, it wasn't
• 59:32
  Speaker 1: a surprise knowing coach Venables. Difference with Oklahoma's been with
• 59:35
  Speaker 1: realness being able to talk to football junkies and players there.
• 59:38
  Speaker 1: I was told about their foundation and remember we do
• 59:41
  Speaker 1: got a lot of players from Ohio. That's also about
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: that life and trying to recruit and so we can
• 59:47
  Speaker 1: get RP three to snatch ship in that would be amazing.
• 59:50
  Speaker 5: So do we know Bill Beatingbow's on the roaday? Or
• 59:54
  Speaker 5: did Carter Scruggs come to Oklahoma.
• 59:57
  Speaker 4: Carter Scruggs the he is one of the.
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 5: Top interior offensive linemen receives an offer this past one
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 5: or he's number one hundred and thirty fourth nationally six
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 5: six seventy out of Leesburg, Virginia. He just posted something
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 5: three minutes ago with the picture with Bill beatingbow Idaho.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 4: It was on the road, So if he's on the road,
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 4: that's a huge one.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it looks like he is on the road. I
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: think that that's exactly what it is. And Saw I
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: found the picture that you're talking about. Let me show
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 1: that real quick before.
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 4: We want this. We want this guy six seventy.
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: Hey, I'm just this is a good one too, because
• 1:00:41
  Speaker 3: his leader right now is Penn State, So that's that's
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: one that's we'll take him.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 5: Hey, but he's wearing an O U shirt, so I'm
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 5: not worried about it.
• 1:00:51
  Speaker 2: So am I that Hue?
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 4: Like if he ain't on campus and he's wearing an
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 4: OU shirt, Like, come.
• 1:00:59
  Speaker 2: On, yep, get the phone call, bean Ball is gonna
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: be pulling up there.
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 1: Let me go throw my Oklahoma gear.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 5: You got Oklahoma gear sitting around readily available.
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: I think that BB ended up traveling to this one.
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 1: It doesn't feel like this was from the event, because
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: I know that a lot of the players left today
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 1: this morning. Yeah, from the visits, and BB may have
• 1:01:23
  Speaker 1: actually hit the road on that one.
• 1:01:25
  Speaker 2: That's that's huge.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but yeah, So the reason why I want to
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 5: hit on the IMG stuff so much, especially with Jake
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 5: Krule come in for the spring, which I know he's
• 1:01:35
  Speaker 5: coming for the spring game at least that date. Will
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 5: will Conroy transferred to IMG Academy and sure did? Can
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 5: he Pepe a six seven, ninety five pound offensive tackle
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 5: is that IMG Academy.
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 4: He's a five star.
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 5: Preston Carry is a defensive lineman six four and a
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 5: half to eighty five out of IMG. Out of me,
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 5: you have a guy by I believe it's a genevek Carr,
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 5: a three stary interior offensive lineman out of IMG Academy,
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 5: so he could really Brett Kolla j as well.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 4: Can't leave him out. And Zach Fort who's a safety.
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 5: Will Conroy guys, let me tell you he loves Oklahoma,
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 5: loves him some Bill beat and bow.
• 1:02:20
  Speaker 4: He might be able to help us.
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 5: Out some recruiting up there, and if he can land
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 5: us a six seven offensive tackle. Not saying it's gonna happen,
• 1:02:26
  Speaker 5: don't give your hopes up there, but having a guy
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 5: plugged into the program right now, committed this early, that
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 5: can help you recruit the entire season.
• 1:02:35
  Speaker 4: I think it's huge.
• 1:02:36
  Speaker 2: It doesn't feel like it's far fitch though, Nope.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: PG.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 3: How about Drew Evers, younger brother of a former Evers?
• 1:02:46
  Speaker 3: What what are your what are your thoughts around him?
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 5: So I think he's I think he's more of a
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 5: tackle and I think it's just going to depend on
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 5: who we take. I don't think though the nick stuff
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 5: is going to play into effect, which I think some
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 5: people have been worried about. I don't think that's going
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 5: to be a problem. So if we want him, I
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 5: think we can land him. But if Texas A and
• 1:03:14
  Speaker 5: M or Texas want him and we can get a
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 5: guy like I don't know, Felix Ojo, I would happily
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 5: swap the two.
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 3: How about Papunkakatoa Katoa another.
• 1:03:25
  Speaker 4: Oa toa toa Katoa. This is such as such a
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 4: good that's that's the easy way to say it to Katoa. No,
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 4: he loves Oklahoma as well.
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 5: Again at six three and a half three sixty five,
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 5: really big body.
• 1:03:41
  Speaker 4: Don't really like the like like the height a whole lot.
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 5: Again, where I would expect a guy like Noah Best
• 1:03:50
  Speaker 5: out of mid Lothian to want to hop on board
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 5: with Oklahoma.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 4: So like you know, again we already have Will Conroy.
• 1:03:57
  Speaker 4: I'm expecting no a best. I think it just depends.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 5: Like I know, we have to have a big interior
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 5: offensive line class because we have a big tackle class
• 1:04:06
  Speaker 5: from last cycle, and then you lost a younger guy
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 5: in Eugene Brooks to the portal, So you're probably looking
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 5: at three to four interior guys. But with Will Conroy,
• 1:04:15
  Speaker 5: know a best already on board. If you can get
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 5: a guy like Carter Scruggs, that's three. I don't know
• 1:04:20
  Speaker 5: if you take a guy like toa Katoa at that point,
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 5: knowing you still have a guy like you can Schmidt
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 5: out there, or you could look at any of these
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 5: which I mean PG.
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 2: Say that Nate wait again, say they wait one more
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 2: time for him?
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 3: Which one weight four three three sixty five right now?
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 3: And that's down from three eighty five.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah again.
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 5: I don't like this. I don't like his high I
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 5: wish he would be just a little bit taller. But
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 5: he's good size, Like I mean, big dude.
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 2: He carries it well. I'm looking at pictures of him now.
• 1:04:48
  Speaker 2: He carries it very well.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 5: I just think it's one of those things where if
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 5: you got Carter Scruggs, you've gotten noa best you got
• 1:04:55
  Speaker 5: will conray on the interior. If they wanted to move
• 1:04:58
  Speaker 5: Drew Evers into the in you're at a guard position.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 5: You know there there's four guys with there. I don't
• 1:05:04
  Speaker 5: know if you need to take five into your guys
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 5: at that point. So because I mean, you're still gonna
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 5: need probably two or three tackles, and you're gonna go
• 1:05:12
  Speaker 5: want to go for a Felix Ojo or a Kinney
• 1:05:15
  Speaker 5: Pepe because you had a really good tackle class last cycle,
• 1:05:20
  Speaker 5: you don't need to take a bunch, which means you
• 1:05:21
  Speaker 5: could really go all in on one big dude and
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 5: then just get like a project tackle, if that makes sense.
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 4: So, I mean Tokatoa likes Oklahoma. He's been here three
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 4: or four.
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 5: Times, remember correctly, we got to watch him at the
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 5: Bibles camps. I just don't know if he kind of
• 1:05:40
  Speaker 5: like the Putnam City kid. I just don't know if
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 5: it's one of those things where they would take him
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 5: right like if you wanted to commit today. I don't
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 5: know if it's one of those where they go, yeah,
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 5: we'll take you today.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: It's something can I watch you keep your eyes on?
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: Which makes sense.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 4: There's a lot of Yeah, yeah, he's a Toakato is
• 1:05:57
  Speaker 4: a kid.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 3: I did a film right around this time last year.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 3: A lot of the offensive line guys, and you know
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 3: a lot of guys the junior years, the big year
• 1:06:07
  Speaker 3: where they kind of blow up. He's done really good.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 3: I think I saw Benji say he was he was
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 3: in Austin here this weekend.
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a Texas this weekend.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 4: And so was Felix Ojoe.
• 1:06:18
  Speaker 5: So yeah, but I want, I want, I want people
• 1:06:21
  Speaker 5: to preface this. So Texas has to hit the offensive
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 5: line hard this year.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 4: They have to.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 5: They have no choice. Kelvin Banks is going to the draft.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 5: DJ Campbell, who is the five star guard. He'll be
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 5: going to the first round, second round maybe next year, yeah,
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 5: in twenty six. So they have to reload, meaning they
• 1:06:41
  Speaker 5: have to get at least one five star tackle. Now
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 5: you're looking at a guy like Turntime to end up
• 1:06:47
  Speaker 5: committing to Texas.
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 4: That's like they're big guy that they're all looking for
• 1:06:50
  Speaker 4: right now.
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 5: So that kind of leaves me the Felix Ojoe for
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 5: us maybe, But they're gonna go after some of these
• 1:06:56
  Speaker 5: interior guys like a toa Katoa. So although oak Holma
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 5: sits in a good spot now, they still have Kyle
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 5: Flood out there at Texas, which I think a lot
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 5: of people forget, is still a pretty damn good offensive
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 5: line coach, especially with just now turning out Calvin Banks.
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 5: And I think there's one more guy who's gonna put
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 5: into the first round this year. The only question that
• 1:07:15
  Speaker 5: I have for Texas's and this would be great for
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 5: Oklahoma fans, does Kyle Flood end up at the Dallas
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 5: Cowboys job. Somebody kind of mentioned his name the other
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 5: day for that offensive line coaching job. If that becomes open,
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 5: and if he ends up up pitched, if he ends
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 5: up up there, oh boy, man, Oklahoma's gonna have an
• 1:07:38
  Speaker 5: open season because I don't know if Texas can find
• 1:07:40
  Speaker 5: another great offensive line coach like that that could turn
• 1:07:43
  Speaker 5: it around that quickly quickly, they would have to be
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 5: a huge portal team in the offseason at the offensive
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 5: line position.
• 1:07:51
  Speaker 4: So just keep your eyes on that.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 5: But no, I mean, Texas is gonna be a heavy
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 5: player in every single offensive recruit offensive line recruitment that
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 5: Oklahoma's in.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 4: It's just how it's gonna be.
• 1:08:00
  Speaker 5: They're gonna beat us probably more than we want to
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 5: this year because they have they're they're the position that
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 5: Oklahoma was in last year.
• 1:08:06
  Speaker 3: It's you're dead on and but you guys got to
• 1:08:10
  Speaker 3: understand too, we're gonna be going against Texas and A
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 3: and M on pretty much any of any of these
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 3: inside you know, inside offensive linemen got from the area.
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 3: It's gonna be on the same names, on same teams,
• 1:08:23
  Speaker 3: and that's how it's going to be. It is a
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 3: tale of old oldest time. Great thing for us, the
• 1:08:29
  Speaker 3: hall that we pulled in this year. It gives us
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 3: some capability to be a little bit more picky and
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: we don't need it to be a numbers game. We
• 1:08:35
  Speaker 3: can kind of, you know, really really put it down
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 3: and you know, make the the conversations. When you have
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: the one on one with you know, the offensive linemen
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: we're gonna be going after, you can be really really
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 3: kind of dialed in.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 4: This is a great interior offensive line class.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 5: This is a great year to need to take three
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 5: or four interior offensive linemen because I think it's really deep.
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 5: I think it's a really deep into your offensive line
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 5: class now are showing it too. Now, how though, you know, Coop,
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 5: you mentioned Texas and Texas A and M at schools
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 5: we're gonna have to be competing with. SMU is throwing
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 5: out a lot of money right now, and they have
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 5: they I would say they have just as much money
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 5: as Texas or Texas A and M at some points.
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 5: They have a lot of good donors at that school.
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 5: So oh yeah, and now that they're in the ACC,
• 1:09:21
  Speaker 5: I think they could end up becoming a bigger problem.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 5: So and SMU is in a lot of these recruitments
• 1:09:26
  Speaker 5: silently and as a team we're not talking about.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 4: So yeah, that's gonna be It's gonna be interesting.
• 1:09:31
  Speaker 5: To see how SMU plays a factor into Texas recruiting
• 1:09:33
  Speaker 5: and then Texas Tech. You know, dude, are they a
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 5: team that's gonna go out there and just try to
• 1:09:37
  Speaker 5: start buying recruits and you know, really start to build
• 1:09:40
  Speaker 5: their classes that way.
• 1:09:43
  Speaker 2: So as you talk about.
• 1:09:46
  Speaker 1: The money side of it, I'm gonna be honest, I
• 1:09:49
  Speaker 1: think SMU may have missed their window on that.
• 1:09:53
  Speaker 2: Because once rev share kicks in, which will.
• 1:09:57
  Speaker 5: Be the.
• 1:10:01
  Speaker 1: And there's gonna be the changes in in IL and everything,
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 1: you're not gonna you're not gonna get much on. I
• 1:10:09
  Speaker 1: think collectives are gonna get quote unquote newtered very soon.
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 5: Yeah, but that could actually help SMU out though with
• 1:10:17
  Speaker 5: revenue sharing, because now you don't really have Texas and
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 5: a Texas A and m outbidding you by a next. No,
• 1:10:25
  Speaker 5: you're playing field and if you have, you know, donors
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 5: with companies that want to set up because I think
• 1:10:33
  Speaker 5: that's what they're gonna make in IL now, NIL is
• 1:10:35
  Speaker 5: truly going to become a Hey, I'm doing commercials or
• 1:10:38
  Speaker 5: advertising for for your business, right instead of I'm funneling
• 1:10:42
  Speaker 5: money to a collective. I I some US got people
• 1:10:44
  Speaker 5: like that, and so I think, you know, SMU now
• 1:10:47
  Speaker 5: can get on that level playing field and kind of
• 1:10:50
  Speaker 5: have some of those pre written in IL packages where hey,
• 1:10:52
  Speaker 5: like you come to SMU, we're gonna have you do
• 1:10:56
  Speaker 5: a commercial. Whether you're I don't know. I don't know
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 5: if they have anybody, but let's go said pancake commercial right,
• 1:11:01
  Speaker 5: let' said they got somebody that owns a pancake company.
• 1:11:03
  Speaker 2: Local barbecue shop. They did it Arkansas.
• 1:11:06
  Speaker 4: I love that.
• 1:11:07
  Speaker 2: That was my favorite. And IO deal by the way,
• 1:11:08
  Speaker 2: that one and.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 1: The big dude at Ohio State that was doing that
• 1:11:14
  Speaker 1: was marketing candles. That was probably my second favorite one
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 1: that was amazing, like he had like like a blue
• 1:11:20
  Speaker 1: mountain something.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 4: That one so somebody's office the oneman had waffle House.
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: I don't know who had the waffle House endorsement.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 4: I want to say it was Texas had the waffle No,
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 4: it's Florida State.
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 1: I thought it'd be Georgia Tech because I mean, there's
• 1:11:36
  Speaker 1: it's Georgia Company, georg Georgia.
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 4: They had Georgia Texan too.
• 1:11:40
  Speaker 5: The one of those schools that you know they've got
• 1:11:43
  Speaker 5: some donors, like when revenue sharing comes in, could they
• 1:11:47
  Speaker 5: be a school that you know, you started install it
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 5: this year?
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 3: Some of those Georgia commits and you know, yeah, you
• 1:11:53
  Speaker 3: saw the twenty twenty five class. They're you know, they
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 3: got their five star and but guys, I just I
• 1:11:59
  Speaker 3: will say this. My favorite one was wasn't there the
• 1:12:03
  Speaker 3: is either last name was like Freeze or Chill or
• 1:12:05
  Speaker 3: something like that, and it was like a wide receiver
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 3: and he had a HbA.
• 1:12:08
  Speaker 4: The coldest, Yeah, the coldest, yea.
• 1:12:10
  Speaker 3: The coldest, the coldest, Yeah Forrester, right.
• 1:12:13
  Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, yeah, he was at uh, he's a Nebraska.
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 1: He had that whole commercial on everything.
• 1:12:18
  Speaker 4: That was.
• 1:12:20
  Speaker 5: That beer commercial. What's the beer commercial? They're always going
• 1:12:23
  Speaker 5: into the freezing COLDUS Crawford.
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 3: Oh that was that was that's of course life.
• 1:12:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's who he should have gotten an I
• 1:12:30
  Speaker 4: l did with.
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't think they only they only could
• 1:12:32
  Speaker 1: do alcoholic gambling unfortunately. Yeah, but the Coldest he's at
• 1:12:37
  Speaker 1: l A Tech. Now he's Louisiana Tech. Now that was
• 1:12:42
  Speaker 1: a fun one. He's had a three port so yeah,
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 1: that was a fun one.
• 1:12:44
  Speaker 3: So he's a he's a prime wide receiver transfer portal
• 1:12:46
  Speaker 3: guy for US next year if he's out of Louisiana Tech.
• 1:12:49
  Speaker 2: The Coldest Crawford was legit. That was a fun that
• 1:12:52
  Speaker 2: was His commercial was actually really good too. That was
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 2: a really good, great production on that. All right, wrap
• 1:12:58
  Speaker 2: it up with a bowl and pee anybody that you
• 1:13:01
  Speaker 2: think we need to keep our eyes.
• 1:13:04
  Speaker 4: On Tristan Keys.
• 1:13:07
  Speaker 5: I'm really excuse what happens with the five star wide
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 5: receiver puts Oklahoma in his top twelve? Does Oklahoma send
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 5: him an offer? And then if so, can Oklahoma go
• 1:13:18
  Speaker 5: out there and land a wide receiver that I think
• 1:13:21
  Speaker 5: we all expect to be a huge nil recruitment. You know,
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 5: does he want to play with a guy like Jadan O'Neil,
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 5: because I wonder by'd no before he dropped his top twelve,
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 5: I noticed Jaden O'Neill was interacting with him on the
• 1:13:35
  Speaker 5: Instagram in the comments.
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 4: Sections, and so.
• 1:13:40
  Speaker 5: Usually when stuff like that's happening, and your quarterbacks out
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 5: there recruiting like that, that kind of tells you a
• 1:13:45
  Speaker 5: little bit of something. So I'm keeping an eye on
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 5: Tristan Keys. Let's see if he will end up coming
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 5: to Oklahoma.
• 1:13:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Janiel needels out here doing work.
• 1:13:53
  Speaker 1: I mean him wanting out there to Miami and showing
• 1:13:57
  Speaker 1: out at that if with the seven oh seven or whatnot.
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 1: Jayden's trying to bring in the top talent with them,
• 1:14:02
  Speaker 1: So we've got to make sure that we take care
• 1:14:05
  Speaker 1: of him, which we will. I'm excited to see him
• 1:14:07
  Speaker 1: get here. Get here for what's that super She should
• 1:14:13
  Speaker 1: be here for future freaks at least I hope you
• 1:14:14
  Speaker 1: may come for future freaks, but if anything, could definitely
• 1:14:16
  Speaker 1: be here for the spring game and you'll be.
• 1:14:19
  Speaker 4: Here for future freaks.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 5: I don't know if he'll be here for the February one,
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 5: but he'll be here for future Freaks, and he'll be
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 5: here for the spring game.
• 1:14:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, to be nice, Coop, anybody in particular, you want
• 1:14:28
  Speaker 1: to see us get our hands on.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 3: You know, at this point in time, we are so
• 1:14:35
  Speaker 3: early and this is just your your closing PSA for
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 3: all of our fan bases. When someone comes and has
• 1:14:42
  Speaker 3: a conversation with you, you're not best friends. You're having
• 1:14:46
  Speaker 3: a conversation, whether it's recruiter, defensive coordinator. So I promise myself,
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 3: I will I will be very calculated, you know during
• 1:14:55
  Speaker 3: this year, because this is I think that we're going
• 1:14:59
  Speaker 3: to see some square early stuff approaching the rev share
• 1:15:02
  Speaker 3: deadline and then right after so you may see some
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 3: more psychotic spending habits by certain people, certain programs in
• 1:15:11
  Speaker 3: the in the spring portal. But right now, I mean,
• 1:15:15
  Speaker 3: you know, we tell the guys that we talked about
• 1:15:17
  Speaker 3: the early sincere uh and then how do you say?
• 1:15:21
  Speaker 3: His name? Not Stone but yeah son, So like guys
• 1:15:26
  Speaker 3: like that, those are the guys that you know, you
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 3: want to continue to build, you know, a complimentary football team,
• 1:15:33
  Speaker 3: not just focus on one side versus the other. So
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 3: we've seen what happens when you focus offense only. We've
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 3: seen what happens when you focus defense only. So uh,
• 1:15:41
  Speaker 3: let's go out there and let's get out there and
• 1:15:43
  Speaker 3: bloomber one twenty nine. Listen. PSAs are terrific, especially for
• 1:15:47
  Speaker 3: old radio execs.
• 1:15:48
  Speaker 4: So hey, Jay, I don't know if you do this.
• 1:15:53
  Speaker 4: We forgot to give the OU men's basketball team a
• 1:15:56
  Speaker 4: shout out.
• 1:15:57
  Speaker 5: They had a huge win last night against Arkansas.
• 1:16:02
  Speaker 2: They won at Arkansas.
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 4: Mm hmm.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 3: Had they had a good win because it was a win.
• 1:16:09
  Speaker 3: Now they get to come back and play the number
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 3: thirteen team in the country and.
• 1:16:12
  Speaker 4: Here here's the deal though. Here's the deal though.
• 1:16:14
  Speaker 5: They talked about how they did not expect the SEC
• 1:16:17
  Speaker 5: to be this physical, and I think you've started to
• 1:16:19
  Speaker 5: see their game shift a little bit and they're starting
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 5: to play more physical.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 4: Maybe the practice in a little different.
• 1:16:25
  Speaker 5: Maybe this Oklahoma team can start to spart off some
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 5: more SEC wins.
• 1:16:28
  Speaker 4: Watch out.
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 5: I think I think we're about to start seeing something
• 1:16:32
  Speaker 5: special from the Simmons basketball team.
• 1:16:34
  Speaker 4: They're starting to figure it out. Congratulations to them.
• 1:16:38
  Speaker 3: It's now going like five board games. Disagree, I disagree
• 1:16:42
  Speaker 3: with you. As the they are starting to figure it out.
• 1:16:45
  Speaker 3: They played an unranked team and had a little bit
• 1:16:48
  Speaker 3: more of a you know, an actual opportunity. These guys.
• 1:16:51
  Speaker 3: I mean, listen, you've got between Jalen Moore. You know,
• 1:16:54
  Speaker 3: he he is a guy who should not be a
• 1:16:57
  Speaker 3: number one guy, and he is is doing really really well,
• 1:17:01
  Speaker 3: and then Fears is doing really good too. So I mean,
• 1:17:04
  Speaker 3: you porter, uh, this year, i'man I will admit watching early,
• 1:17:10
  Speaker 3: I thought I'm not going to jump at this. We
• 1:17:12
  Speaker 3: play a couple of ranks, we get our butts handed
• 1:17:15
  Speaker 3: to us a couple of times, and I go, you know,
• 1:17:18
  Speaker 3: maybe there so this team needs Let's let's wait till
• 1:17:21
  Speaker 3: the ends. Let's get through the end of the year,
• 1:17:23
  Speaker 3: because I think it's gonna you just gotta go. I
• 1:17:26
  Speaker 3: have to see what a whole entire conference seasons look like,
• 1:17:28
  Speaker 3: just like the Big Twelve. Though it's not like you
• 1:17:30
  Speaker 3: gotta you know, have double digit wins and you know,
• 1:17:32
  Speaker 3: be games over five hundred to make the tournament. I mean,
• 1:17:36
  Speaker 3: it's gonna be the same pretty much as the Big Twelve.
• 1:17:38
  Speaker 3: This year. You get right up there. I think I
• 1:17:41
  Speaker 3: saw the bracketology had us in the uh, you know,
• 1:17:45
  Speaker 3: in the playoff or I guess in the tournament as
• 1:17:48
  Speaker 3: of right now. So just keep stacking them together, you know,
• 1:17:52
  Speaker 3: steal one here and there, and just don't lose anything
• 1:17:54
  Speaker 3: that you're not supposed to.
