Oklahoma Sooners SHOCKED By Latest Portal Entries | More All American Honors and Transfer Visitors

[@loganlee5875]

My level of "couldn't care less" is really getting strong.

[@cward1701]

Amen. Colleges should just call it what it is. Professional football. Why go to class? Why have loyalty? Why learn about consequences of decisions? It's disgusting.

[@TracieKretzschmar]

Thanks guys! I love your daily reports & analysis. As a long time Sooner fan, it has definitely been a frustrating year, but I am still a loyal fan!

[@Pierre-wm3xs]

You still beat Bama and had a chance in almost every game without your starting 5 receivers if not for turnovers. Find a quarterback that doesn't loose you the game and you'll be fine. The OLine will be light years better next year and receivers can be found

[@-sensibleChris]

I agree. IF the Oline improves some, and we get a QB that can move the ball AND make the right decision to throw it away or run for a few yards when necessary. Even taking a sacknis much better than a fumble or Int. A smart QB like Gabriel or Baker was, would be ideal. Seems like Mateer would be the best fit, but he may not want to come here. I was r3ally hoping to see Zurbrugg next year, but he got out of 5own too. Playing QB at OU is a pretty good gig, so I think there will be some savvy QB out there that is eyeballing this situation.

[@StrawHatTeen-k6i]

Whomever the QB will be for OU this next season they are going to have to have a gool OL to protect them. Jackson Arnold and Michael Hawkins didn't have a chance this year. I think Dillion Gabriel is very smart and knew OU's OL was going to suck. Even DG would have struggled if he had stayed at OU. Coach B needs to step it up. No excuse for the sorry transfer portal picks he made last year.

[@-sensibleChris]

It wasn't very god 5he year before either when Gabriel was here. He just made great decisions with he ball. We had one good NFL caliber lineman when Gabriel was here.

[@mysteriousoklahoma777]

Every player now thinks he’s worth 500k to 1 million. Smfh

[@KillerBrees]

Brennan Thompson wanting more NIL money to stay is ridiculous. He was either trying to take advantage of OU being in a bad spot, or he's delusional and thinks of himself as a 5'8" Megatron - either way is dumb as hell so he can hit the bricks. I'm done with all these fools.

[@SpeedzyWGJK]

Or we have a dead man walking at OC, terrible offense and low in nil offers

[@KillerBrees]

@@SpeedzyWGJK we had a horrible OC and a horrible offense, and neither of those facts changes anything about what I said…Brennan Thompson is not worth big NIL money, and that’s exactly why he’s gone which is fine with me.

[@derekdoll6451]

3:47 exactly. Why is everyone up in arms about guys that didn’t produce on the field leaving?

[@kimfitzsimmons2067]

There has to be rules put in place for those who did NOT produce….some kind of an index where 100% of the money is paid for 100% availability…….if not, you need to pay back (better, receive some portion up front then it’s “earned”) the money. Anderson had a great year of paid recovery (at OU cost) + NIL and did NOTHING for the team….this has to be managed with real expectations, an index, that is managed the same way at every school.

[@williedavis9909]

Facts

[@rican402]

He wanted more $ than he was worth. Was told no, and hit the portal. These kids are delusional. Most won’t even find another school.

[@-sensibleChris]

I do think alot of players across the country are taking a gamble that they will come up short on. A few will get a better deal but most will get the same deal or a worse deal.

[@gincain7988]

We need instant production and I feel not having a QB with experience locked down.

[@ckrumme2331]

Some of this looks like BV and Arbuckle are cleaning house.

[@kimfitzsimmons2067]

I never understood why OU’s WR strategy was “short and fast?” When you look around the league, the teams that win are tall, quick and ball-dogs…….let’s get some dogs!

[@davidwindham5804]

Look at Oregons receivers, small and fast. So, does not always apply but having a QB that can get them the ball is crucial.

[@Jimmiedagent]

Oregon hasn’t faced a team yet outside of big 10 and the only team they played physical was Ohio State. I’m curious to see how they match up against top SEC team

[@Jimmiedagent]

With SEC in press man almost every down you gotta get fast and physical WRs to win in that league.

[@freemanreed5228]

Let's get a new coach first!!!

[@SpeedzyWGJK]

Gotta take the best you can get… size isn’t everything

[@rmerrifield100]

I am a Longhorn, but I think Jay Smith is stellar. Sorry he is a Sooner. Hook'em!

[@larryseago730]

6' should be considered short for WR, TE, CB.

[@StrawHatTeen-k6i]

OU is going to have to do a lot better in the transfer portal than they did last year. Hope Arbuckle is not only a really good OC but also really good at spotting and acquiring the talent needed to get this offense cooking.

[@chuckkearney9246]

I don’t think they are cleaning houses. The guys just aren’t liking their values

[@dillondoublehead]

Not a sci fi nerd, but growing up I was a Dane Cook fan. Therefore, I understand the Stargate reference 👍🏼 0:56

[@TR-fm5tc]

PAID LIKE A CHAMPION

[@aaronlove2623]

At this point I expect a whole new starting offense ( every position )

[@DWS205]

That’s definitely not necessary. Having a few actual starting receivers, a competent o-line, and an experienced QB will go a long way lol.

[@SydneyGreenstreet1227]

Is that a bad thing ?

[@ckrumme2331]

Maybe a couple OL and Robinson and Barnes at RB but yes the offense I'd going to look completely different next year

[@russelledwards6026]

There was a reason he left Texas what did anybody expect? He wasn't even on the rotation in Austin. He's got track speed but other than that he's a mediocre route runner.

[@daltonmoore7889]

Every guy that we have lost is just a guy none of them are difference makers hell none of them really even played yall need to relax lmao these guys didn’t even play and yall think the program is in trouble

[@ThisIsLeeBird]

Not worried at all about who is in the portal or will be getting in the portal. Especially since they are all on offense pretty much. A historical disaster at OU on offense. The more that go in, the better.

[@TimGreen-t7i]

Sad state of affairs in this portal. It’s a feeding frenzy right now and kids are getting sucked into this vortex. It is surprising to me to see certain players go, like Nic Anderson, who I really like but he is always injure. His brother was too when he was at OU. There has to be some genetics at play there. The reality is that the guys leaving contributed to a 6-6 season. I hope Brent has a decent plan in place and the talking heads say he does. So I’m gonna keep the faith.

[@birdman9043]

Need guys that can stay healthy, get open, catch and run with the ball.

[@robertwalegir8677]

The term that was used was cleaned out when some of the projections had three or four of these guys with the draftable grade why wouldn’t you want to do everything in your power to keep them? Evaluation versus recruiting versus development versus injuries !!! Kearny, Calderon Raggins you would not expect them to be difference makers, but after a full year, you would expect them to contribute!!! Is it time to take into account a valuation on Coach Jones? He is a man of great integrity, and they say he creates a culture and has great relationships, but does that translate to the field or people just drinking the Kool-Aid or a old school reference shucking and jiving !!! At this point nothing should be left to chance and remember New portable receivers are coming to a different state, different town, different student body, and as far as football goes, they may have to learn different fundamentals and techniques, and of course different schemes in a completely new offense!!!

[@efb3603]

Click is a good word but cohesive is another 😊 how are you going to get a new qb to mesh with all the new receivers 😢 probably won't be a pretty site 🤔

[@Kche_Mkede_Mko]

Don’t know how much I’d put into this, but Jayden Gibson has taken down all of his previous OU posts.

[@Sheepdog9272]

I called it a few days ago that Gibson would go too. Still calling it. It's more than just the shitty medical staff and that's obvious.

I was being sarcastic because we live in a world where a football player makes more th our military members and to me that ass backwards. Them boys stay at the service academys cause anybody can't just go to the academys maybe the football players can but regular guys that get into a academy has to have a senator recommend them before they can even think about getting in.

What production have we lost?!?! This is being handled like a business (NFL) and the non-production guys are being processed. BT has potential, but didn't capitalize enough on his opportunities. The ones that have shown flashes, can't stay healthy. All of the big time programs are upgrading at the position, and no one has had a worse season at the position than us. WHY stay with what we have? It didn't work out this year and there's no room for error next year. BT likely left on his own, seeing that he will be pushed down the depth chart again after we bring in the new talent. We have 2 upper classmen alpha dogs with Gibson & Burks to lead the room. IF they were to leave, then the concern would be validated. #Boomer #RichLife
