@@williebates3398These people just mention names without having a clue about players interest. They think you can just go pay a guy and he will come and play. It's more to it than that.
Interesting and unexpected thing yesterday: Damonic Williams didnt rule out a return next year rather than declare as we all expected. Apparently, he didn't quite get the best draft grade (that baffles me). Either way, a return of Williams to our interior next year along with everyone else we have, wow, that could very well the the best defensive line in rhe country
Jmho: one of the reasons top portal players are avoiding OU is the awful Oline. Another is BV's hotseat. He is 12-16 vs P5 schools. Most people think he has to have a good season next Fall or he'll be fired.
Would you want to be with someone that didn't really want to be with you? Why even entertain a player that would quit on the team as soon as things didn't go their way. And besides some of these guys are asking for stupid money. And will be gone after one season here.
Dude it’s not like this is what we are going into the season with. Quit being a 🐱 and just let things workout the way the end up working out. You also as usual are blowing things out of perspective since we have Burks and Gibson who are both day 1 or 2 type NFL talent. We also know what walk ons can do when they are the type of players that EARN a scholarship. Simply put, relax and let everything play out before you start throwing your toys and whining
First ! Question why not dump the depth OL and go after starting OTs for Oklahoma … just because someone starts at Stanford doesn’t mean they are going to start at OU.
@@corydavis617 we had those depth players last year and they are depth for a reason they don’t start and when they get put into starting positions they fail just like they did last year . We are using the same playbook we used from the year before going after diamond in the rough OL in the portal !
OU has to go after bigger names, I am tired of getting FCS and lower FBS schools, why can't we get players from top P4 schools man its annoying wtf are we doing.
Idk about yall but I'm sick and tired of ou taking a backseat to everyone in recruiting wheres the big names coming in...idk but this staff needs to figure it out we have been in a slump except last year for a long time we need to get back to winning
95% of OU's potential incoming portal signees appear to be subpar JAGs who are being signed for depth & practice squad purposes. Not surprising since BV went 2-6 & finished in 12th place in the 16-team SEC.
These players are getting paid. The age of developing players is over with NIL aka “pay to play” and transfer portal. BV was focused on building the best development program possible, what happens? Players are not ready, don’t take care of themselves and got injured and won’t play… you get a sub 500 season 2 years in a row and his job is on the line. Get the best players that are ready and fit your scheme and execute like crazy. This way at least you can win enough games to make the playoff.
I dont see us landing Mateer, Miami has money to spend and they are willing to spend it. We at OU have been let down numerous times with high rates players Gabe Dindy DJ Hicks Malachi Nelson Luke Hasz Zechariah Branch Makai Lemon The list goes on, I will not believe it until he is on campus in Janurary.
Looks like we’re inbound for a 5-7 or if we are lucky then another 6-6 season. TE is actually detrimental at OU with JJF coaching and recruiting that position.
OU Coaches need to make a greater emphasis on starting High school players in yr 1. Grabbing portal guys to start over them sends a bad message, not to mention it a function of them not "DRAFTING" well from the high school ranks. Just like the NFL, each position should have a monetary value. Paying a player big money to wait his turn is foolishness. If a kid get paid, the expectation better be he's playing and being developed simultaneously.
There is no point in getting these warm bodies like Baklenko when they don’t immediately upgrade the room. At WR OU needs a difference maker plain and simple and it seems as though they are getting the second tier of receivers as what they thought they would get. Just feels as though this’ll be a disappointing portal where OU makes it John Mateer vs the world.
@ he is not way better than Brown. They are more or less the same, just look at what Brown did last year at Michigan State (3 sacks and 18 pressures allowed) and what Baklenko did this year (4 sacks and 22 pressures allowed). Baklenko is just a new name, doesn’t mean he makes things better and I’ve seen nothing on tape to say otherwise or say he’s better than Sexton, Taylor, or Howland.
@huntermcphail7433 I'm no expert but Gabe Ickard seems to think he is a lot better than Brown. Since I'm not a talent scout, I take Gabe word most of the time. But if you know better, my bad.
@ I watched Gabe break him down too, Gabe is mainly seeing it from the best possible light and trying to be very positive because this guy is on the team now and Gabe will be talking to him. Gabe still couldn’t even help himself from pointing out that he got taken off the field on short downage situations (bad sign).
So I am guessing that caden Helms will be staying then. That's great. I believe in the kid. But we do need to get in contact with zion brank and Marvin Jones. And we need that corner back from Washington state
Just letting you know. Yall keep talking about these bowls games and after the game and they still hasn’t made big moves. Everyone is coming for yall. Just saying.
I believe the coaching staff understands the process involved!!! In this day and age, there’s always a rush to be first is there ever a rush to be right ??? And when there’s a rush to be first and not right, there’s a rush to judgment, and when there’s a rush to judgment, you take action, you shouldn’t have not taken in the first place because you rushed through it and didn’t go through the process. BV is a process guy.
@ you don’t have a freaking offensive line 😂 this past year was atrocious. Mateer will be committing suicide. You don’t just get an offense line in the portal in a couple of minutes lol 😂
JOHN WAYNE MATEER the GUNSLINGER is in NORMAN RIGHT NOW, I know this because i saw him in Norman yesterday.
Please tell me he looked hyped
I saw him drinking a pina colada at the Mont and his hair was perfect.
Sure you did
Are you sure you saw him
He ain't coming
Our TE room is the worst it’s been in 25 years - when is Joe Jon Finley going to earn his pay?? I just don’t get it.
Finely can’t recruit and develop players
I believe JJF is looking to land elsewhere. If he does, we might want to see if K-State’s TE Coach has any interest.
He will not be here in 2025
@ I hope ur right because JJF just isn’t getting it done.
If Joe Jon is still here as TE coach next year, that's when we really start to question BV as a head coach
Gotta start landing some bigger names if OU wants to change their trajectory. Not just “filling voids”.
On offense its almost all "voids."
Move BV to DC and hire a real coach just sayin last 3 years has been a joke 💯
Names don't win games talent does.
I agree. The problem with that is it will cost several tens of millions of dollars every year to get those guys in modern college football

return punts and kick offs

Most of the players OU are recruiting are wanted by teams in SEC. Do your homework.
I don’t think we will hear many wide out commits until we hear the results with John Mateer.
Okay Parker with the BARS! 😆👍🏾 "...Who doesn't have a chair whn the music stops." 😎😂🤣
I used to razz Brandon for wearing a backward hat until I saw him without a hat. You're doing the right thing Brandon!
Former walk ons with 19 catches lmao I can do that with 4 years of eligibility remaining 💀

@@aaronj5699 neither of you would get 2 catches at UCO lmao
Brandon you said it right the first time we need a Nate Roberts 🤣🤣😭
A&M signed the jag portal tight end from Nebraska that OU / JJF / BV wanted. Lordy, the talent in the tight end portal market is very thin.
Mateer to OU today would feed families
I think we are doing the Dabo approach to this now, recruit well then get practice guys from the portal to help sharpen up the 2 deep
That whole sentence makes no sense. Dabo has taken one transfer
First ! Question why not dump the depth OL and go after starting OTs for Oklahoma … just because someone starts at Stanford doesn’t mean they are going to start at OU.
Why not develop the players you got?🤷♂️
How many injuries were inflicted on the line this season? That's why you want depth....
Rouse did LOL
Do that and you lose faith from HS recruits. After this year I think the portal will change.
@@corydavis617 we had those depth players last year and they are depth for a reason they don’t start and when they get put into starting positions they fail just like they did last year . We are using the same playbook we used from the year before going after diamond in the rough OL in the portal !
Branch would be legit. Besides mateer we need to make a splash. A huge name reciever, TE, OT or DT
We need another impact player at tight end like another Gresham
All the chips in on Mateer and Branch..
lol branch isn’t an option
@theSparkyWatts lolol gotta believe!!
OU has to go after bigger names, I am tired of getting FCS and lower FBS schools, why can't we get players from top P4 schools man its annoying wtf are we doing.
Our portal recruitment is mirroring our season.
Other prominent schools have recruited these players. I believe that they would know who's worth having and who's not.....
Is Zachariah Branch a possibility
Lol he is not coming😂😂😂
Idk about yall but I'm sick and tired of ou taking a backseat to everyone in recruiting wheres the big names coming in...idk but this staff needs to figure it out we have been in a slump except last year for a long time we need to get back to winning
Sounds like we are going to get the number 1 guy in the portal
@@jumpman1113with nobody to throw to so how's that a win?
Is there any chance we got the branch brothers? If so, that would definitely save the “portal class” along with mateer

duece robinson is still out there and what about the Branch brothers ?>
Miami has gotten several top recruits. Where are they getting all the NIL money? 🤣
What about tight ends
We’ve swung and missed consistently
Is Mitchell a bust or to young ?
@@RobertGraham-x9o seems like he's just young at this point. Kid is talented, just needs to mature.
I dont see us landing Mateer, Miami has money to spend and they are willing to spend it. We at OU have been let down numerous times with high rates players
Gabe Dindy
DJ Hicks
Malachi Nelson
Luke Hasz
Zechariah Branch
Makai Lemon
The list goes on, I will not believe it until he is on campus in Janurary.
Have any of those guys done anything yet though??
@boomtime4343 luke Hasz yes, Zachariah Branch yes, Makai Lemon yes, DJ Hicks yes
The rest no
First of all miami don't have the money for it and ou does
Kid from Nebraska will be a solid PWA…
I think all of these guys pods should be 10-15 minutes long. Much easier to stomach and endure;0)
Looks like we’re inbound for a 5-7 or if we are lucky then another 6-6 season. TE is actually detrimental at OU with JJF coaching and recruiting that position.
So we go after one top tier player in the portal and go after 3 stars and under after that?
Those dam ⭐'s can be tricky give me heart effort and size
Those dam ⭐'s can be tricky heart effort and size and coach em up
There are still 12 teams in the playoffs playing. Those teams will have players leave after they lose. Be patient folks...
Go get duce and branch from usc.... also get all the elite OT's and TE's that u can...also add some more DT's
OU don't have that much money to afford them.
Mateer in Norman today with wrs I believe....
Great edge rush group...and Brandon never mentions PJ Adebwore. Hmmm 🤔
BOOMER!!!!
Sooner!!!
Someone messaged me when the latest news hits please
Please stop with the 3 star guys. It's killing us
What about the Branch brothers?
Too high of a price tag plus one is a safety, dount you want to burn RSJ or Bowen by bringing in another safety.

Just feels as though this’ll be a disappointing portal where OU makes it John Mateer vs the world.
He did immediately upgrade the room. He took Spencer Brown’s spot, and he is way better than that guy.
@ he is not way better than Brown. They are more or less the same, just look at what Brown did last year at Michigan State (3 sacks and 18 pressures allowed) and what Baklenko did this year (4 sacks and 22 pressures allowed).

He's comming but not staying
Branch over sategna.
I understand WR's and TE's waiting on a QB, but where are the CB's, S's and edge players. Nothing, Nada. No one.
Time to show BV the door we need the ole miss coach dude kills the portal since it opened. we passed on Dart and mingo for jackass arnold. Case closed
Getting all these receivers from the bottom of the barrel🤦 why can’t we get some of the top guys
No money
Can anyone name a recruiter worse than JJF that’s ever been employed by OU? The guy is legitimately stealing money at this point.
Is that the only big one??
OU wants robinson more than simmons
So I am guessing that caden Helms will be staying then. That's great. I believe in the kid. But we do need to get in contact with zion brank and Marvin Jones. And we need that corner back from Washington state
Good lord. Any people out of Sam Houston State we are crootin?
Is TE Devon Mitchell still on the team ?
Yeah he’s just buried. I think we should have played him last year to give him experience.
Just letting you know. Yall keep talking about these bowls games and after the game and they still hasn’t made big moves. Everyone is coming for yall. Just saying.
Who do we have behind Everett? Bates is gone.
TE the Beers Brothers 😂

Here first boomerrrr
So we are shopping at low level western Carolina for players now? What a clown show
Yeah and what did Cayden W do? Absolutely nothing let’s hope it’s not a repeat
Disagree, he was a good rotational player
He filled in good, but he had sacks in the MAC , Brothroyd has 8 at Wake, at OU they had maybe 3 between them.
Don't blow your NIL on 1 guy. Yes pay the the guy. But forget the bidding war. We need a team not just a QB. MH is a stud and will do great
His ability to complete throws is suspect at this time.
Is it finally time to admit that PJ is a complete bust
The offense for OU is complete trash 😂😂 Mateer is suicidal if he decides to go to there
It's a new season
