that is what I thought too, but I thought I was missing something.

Did Mantanona AA?

love Mizzu, you guys just got a good one this past week from Oklahoma!

Scott is one helluva dude, I have known him for 10+ years and watched Zan since he was a little kid. GREAT people, and LOYAL people. I know several schools reached out and wanted Zan to visit, but they stayed loyal. The way that OU handled this whole HC search and the hiring and getting Kish on board has been horrible. Zan can go pretty much anywhere he wants, and I hope they will consider going somewhere else I am a die-hard OU fan. Wherever he goes, it will need a strong RTC because he wants to make a world team one day. Zan deserved MUCH better than how OU treated him. Again, make no mistake, other schools have been on him since his commitment to OU and he never went back on his word.

one is 149 and one is 157

He asked for his release. He is looking...could end up there anyway, but I know they are not happy

Anyone see the tweets from Milholf and Woodley ripping Jason Leonard and the admins at OU? Holy $hit, they ran over Leonard big time.....

The bad part about all of this is that I was told from a very reliable source that Coleman wanted this job, BAD. His inlaws are from OKC and it is time for a move. I heard a few names already that he wanted on the staff. I also heard Mark Perry softly put his name in, but then seen the shit show and was not really wanting it.

There are issues that run deep over there, lots of them. Boosters are controlling, or trying to control a lot of the decisions. That is why it has been a roller coaster of "Koll is in" "Koll is out" "Nickerson is on campus" "they are not going to offer Nickerson" "coleman is throwing his hat in the ring" "Boosters don't want a cowboy running the program" My good friend, his son is a big time recruit for OU, and has signed. BUT, they have been left in the dark on who the coach was going to be. Heflin is the new coach, then they ghosted him and interviewed Kish and then here we are. I don't think he necessarily wants to leave for sure, but he wants to talk to other schools. I understand the rules, but why not let the kid look around? Is it a good thing to force this? I know I wouldn't

Can OU really block these Lou recruits from de-committing from OU? Minnow is reporting this right now.

prolly wont wrestle, will go right into MMA. Great kid

Spratley will be the 125lbr for Okie State

Buchanan and Henson are both NIL's

I was told Heflin is going to be offered the job.

I am going to try and find out this AM what is going on.

If Heflin is announced, this program is done. He is a nice guy, but he has no idea how to run a program. Recruiting visits could not even be coordinated, complete chaos. They have F'd this thing up badly....At first it was, we are only taking a HC because we want an experienced coach. That cut most the best candidates. Then it was, OK, I guess we will call Kendric, he told them to F off. Now, it is settling for an asst coach that was already elevated too high in his position. Whoever said it, might be right. With the move to SEC, they may shut this thing down and get rid of it. It sure does not seem there was a ton of time and effort put into this thing. Justin Leonard needs to get in the unemployment line.

Again, I believe if Kendric was offered out of the gate, and not like the "ok I guess we will take you then" choice he would have considered it.

ABSOLUTE cluster. Like I said, they thought Koll was their guy, no back up. Then Nickerson, and that was a no go. Then I heard Hahn was seriously thinking about it, and didn't take it. When you are letting the boosters run things, this is what happens. Get 10-12 candiates and do this shit quietly, keep it all behind closed doors and make a selection and move on.

No "Hate" I think it is more of, they felt there were better coaches out there. I think MANY want OU ties to the program to get the history back. ie. Oklahoma football currently.

A single A donor wanted Nickerson, I did not know an offer was made. I do know that others found out he was on campus and folks started calling and threatening money if Nickerson was made HC. Here was my list I sent a major donor when Lou was gone: My list to call and bring in were: Frayer, Maple, Coleman, Burroughs, Cunningham, Clemson, Schwab, Metcalf, Pop, Stieber, Ian Miller, HC Frayer ASST Brewer ASST Howe or Ian Miller ASST Gwiz (some sort of mix of coach/RTC to get him paid) RTC Sam Haz

lol, someone needs to pin this at the top.

honestly, when I read it, it pissed me off because I knew it was a blatant made up lie. I have been in forums, when you have dipshits that make up rumors, it is autoban. It ruins a lot of the forums. I told you guys Spratley was entering portal before it happened, and I also said OSU was where he would land because of Fix and he was to get into animal medicine. Most prolly thought, ok, roll eyes....

100%. I cannot, and I repeat, I cannot believe they have screwed this up so bad. I said from the beginning, reach out to 10-15 wishlist candidates. Bring them in, if they will talk to you, and ask some questions and narrow it down. They had in their heads, we want a HC with experience, we are not talking to anyone else. Well, look how the hell that worked out. NOW, you are going to get many guys worth a damn, using OU to get raises, watch. Confirmed, Kendric did get offered and confirmed he turned it down....for good reason, but turned it down.

OU has completely screwed this entire search up, they have not "worked hard". They knew Lou was not the guy last year, but they kept "hanging on" then. Then he gets fired or uhhhh "resigned". They are talking to Koll, he teases them because of his ties to Spates, who was driving the Koll hire along with Leonard. Koll nods and says, I love it here, my wife hates it in Cali. OU offers and he says let me think on it, meanwhile texting all around to let the world know he was offered the job. Genius move and gets what he wants from Stanford and pulls his name. SO, next big donor steps up and wants Nickerson, and so they bring him on....and then there is a ton of backlash, saying they don't want Nickerson. Then the Hahn offer, and he turns it down. I am trying to confirm the Maple offer, if that is true, OU F*cked that up, by not approaching him from the rip. He would have really considered it, I think, but now he is like the fat girl at the punch bowl and being asked to dance because nobody is left. TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, is how OU has handled this. Meanwhile, you have Fugitt getting calls left and right to come to their school, because of how F'd up OU is right now. That is OU's biggest recruit in my opinion, and they are gonna end up losing him if they don't get their shit together.

yes
