AKA 3,318 Posted June 20 His highlight reel looks good: http://www.hudl.com/v/2AMWDv The kid's got excellent size and pocket presence. Very strong arm. Probably less of a true running threat than Kyler or Jalen, but an excellent fit for Lincoln's spread "Pro Raid" system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valhalla 1,292 Posted June 20 On 6/20/2019 at 8:16 AM, AKA said: Obviously I'm gonna look at this through crimson glasses, but it's just really really hard for me to imagine any talented RB who (barring interest from Clemson/Alabama) would want to pass on a chance to play in Lincoln Riley's offense. If your goal is being developed and reaching the next level, there's really no better place to be showcased... again, unless you're Clemson or Alabama. Say what you want about our defense (there's no way you'll be more critical than I) the run game has absolutely flourished under Riley. Samaje Perine, Joe Mixon, Rodney Anderson... all produced big numbers and went to the League. Next up now are Trey Sermon and Kennedy Brooks, both of whom will more than likely end up on NFL rosters. For all the hype our QBs have (deservedly) received, the run game is legit. It's plug and play. Next man up. Manning is a DB. The thing that hurts Oklahoma is the negative recruiting on the defensive side of the ball. Oklahoma has just not put a lot of quality defensive players into the NFL the last 10 years. (Oklahoma needs to take some lessons from Texas on how to sell recruits on nothing but hope ) Oklahoma was on Manning before he blew up in the ratings. They were the first really âbig timeâ program to have interest in him. When it was Nebraska and Arizona State negative recruiting who really cared. When schools like Alabama and LSU jump in later in the game and say those things itâs different. If LSU offers Manning then I think he will be gone. It does not seem at this moment like they will have room for him (they cannot have every DB lol). On 6/20/2019 at 9:10 AM, MrBuddyGarrity said: đđđđer! Oklahoma Sooners land commit from 2021 QB Brock Vandagriff, the No. 1 prospect in the nation according to Rivals. @BrockVandagriff: https://t.co/1f5eXp7t1l https://t.co/b3raxvi0U3 He wonât stay #1 for long now that he committed to Oklahoma. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valhalla 1,292 Posted July 5  This a big one if it sticks. Oklahoma DOES NOT beat Texas in head to head battles in Houston for recruits. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DB2point0 438 Posted July 5 Sounds like the new DC is using an odd tactic recruiting. Â If true, he might pull in a good class but also cause problems for this fall Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't like it? Do something about it. Get it done, or get gone. You wanna quit? Quit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
