KU or OU

Yeah, it's a really really big deal, to you and the rest of the Gooner-Nation.   Guarantee you, nothing changes at OSU.  They'll get rid of him and move on, end of story.

Those comments are from your fan base not mine...lol...Keep digging that hole for your-self.....

[MichaelC]

Or, maybe not.  Looks like the jury came in with a probation recommendation.  He's a partially free man.  

Must have been some odd circumstances.  Being the state of Texas and all.  Maybe it had to do with the fact that he was a juvenile when he committed the crime, or maybe it was one of those Georgia overkill things.  *shrug*

Like I said, the only ones that find this a really big deal, are the Gooner Nation.

Lol...That should keep you busy for awhile..

[MichaelC]

Until everyone decides that those accused of a crime can't go to college, or can't play football, OSU and Gundy did nothing wrong or even atypical.

That's the bottom line.

Though it's nothing new that Gooner fan, probably a poser anyway, keeps harping on it.

Yes that worked for Prentiss Elliot as well....Gundy is lucky he doesn't have blood on his hands for that nightmare.....How many pair of orange colored glasses do you have....

And if things don't work out, we still have this:

Good one brainiac.  Elliot got kicked off the team for theft he committed while at OSU.

Dusty Dvoracek, on the other hand, got a suspension for an assault he committed while at OU.  He played again later.  Though a few years earlier, a couple of players got kicked off OU's squad for whipping up on a Langston player, go figure.

(Stoops actually does have blood on his hands.  If you really want to be moronic about it.)

Not saying there's anything necessarily wrong with either case.  Elliot was a juvenile offender, don't know about Dvoracek.  Or any of the other players.  But you're going to empty OU's squad if you start dumping everyone "accused" of a crime.

You have to be dumb as rock to think that will fly.  But by all means, give it a try.  Has nothing to do with "glasses", that's reality.  Which you would know, if you weren't a hateful Sooner wannabe.

Whoa! You get beat up by a drunken Sooner in a bar somewhere? Ease up. All sports programs are laced with dumb athletes that make mistakes that are visible to the public. Many people actually believe that the discipline of a sport and the guidance of a strong coach keeps them straight or reforms them. Not my belief but quite common. Can't blame a coach for trying to help a youngster and improve his program at the same time. Honestly, the Dvorcek experience was a positive one.

But Prentiss was a bad gamble that OSU could have avoided. His problems (more than theft)started in high school and were not unknown to recruiters. You probably know or should know the story if you follow local basketball. OSU has had to gamble some to get their program on a par with the elite teams. Sometimes they have gotten burned.

KU by 3 over OSU. And the KU cheerleaders will be packing.

Prentiss may have been a bad gamble.  But every coach makes potentially bad gambles.  It's the nature of the game.  Most of those "gambles" pay off, and by definition, some "gambles" wont.  And if he flew straight at OSU no one would be talking about him.

How many juvenile offenders has Stoopes signed on?  Hard to tell, the only person I've ever heard of was the high profile Elliot at OSU, but I bet you he's not the only one in the state.  With so many coming out of Texas, instead of Tulsa, how would you know?

As long as a couple of OU jackasses want to make this about Gundy, we'll throw f'n thing back at Stoops.  OU's teams have been full of thugs.  I have no problem throwing it back that way.

Damn interesting concept there.

And Dvoracek was a gamble.  Don't care if you're in love with him.  If he'd a screwed up again, or killed someone out of drunken rage, it be a different story.  That gamble paid off.

Swake:  You're welcome for Bill Self.  XoXo Tulsa.

OSU and OU haters (respectively):

What do you call the place where they keep all the convicts in Texas?

A huddle!  [}:)]

[MichaelC]

I don't hate OU, just their fans.  Some of the biggest, scrotum tearing, douchebags you'll ever find.

Damn interesting concept there. Is that sarcasm? You'll have to be less subtle. I am a Sooner for gawd's sake.

I love the story about the Miami team and their new coach. Talk about gambling. His program will pay off and this guy will end up a hero win or lose. Stoops is perceived by the Sooner faithful in the same way. OU's program had sunk so low he got saviour status just by doing his job. I wish OSU had found a coach with the Miami coache's temperament. And don't get testy about that remark. Gundy screwed up with his press conference and to their credit, not a single elite program coach criticized him for it. They know what he is going through.

Wish we could ban football players from running for political seats.
