Hey it was a comeback that was warranted to a snarky response...nothing narcissistic about that. Literally just said I thought it was funny that so many people were talking down about Dillon Gabriel and asked if y’alls confidence was really that much higher in a guy who hasn’t ever stepped on the field. Instead of an answer in received a s***t talking response and responded in kind.
But Williams is a 5 star. Those only qualify to hold clipboards under Kirby Smart. There’s always a better walk on! Lol
I thought Williams and Farooq were attached at the hip? I think they played high school ball together. He may be gone too
No worry there Bell. True, those NIL deals can influence anyone, but the portal transfer is a one time for life deal.
While it is trure a guy could hit the portal one year and transfer the next, he would have to sit out a year to do it.Maybe even lose a year eligibility.. I doubt anyone does that again.
I know one thing if I was a college football coach right now and trying to jockey for position with your players, i'd rather retire.
Farooq didn't get many opportunities all year but had a nice showing in the bowl game and you could tell he has some talent.
Nah, he will want to play for a top 10 team. So that means the Horns are out too.
I'm very old. Can you tell me what you just wrote?Bruh, i didn't see your IFF. Squawk next time to avoid green on blue.
Hard to see Ga. for C. Williams. Don't they have Daniel, the USC guy, and Brocksomething a HS 5 star? Ole Miss or UCLA would see the most likely. Maybe Notre Dame. Hope the kid does ok. OU is in pretty good shape. Still adding to a decent recruiting class. Hired another great recruiter D line coach from Clemson. Only 8 months to see how it works out.
You're a newbie here, and you're not off to a good start. How about showing some respect for where you're posting?
I'm old too... Basically I said to avoid any friendly fire down here, you need to identify if you're "friend or foe" (IFF-- it's an old WWII saying). You can do so by squawking-- or telling us who you are and your intentions. You see, we've been inundated down here by 9.95ers (our term for you guys that like paying for "inside info" that we all usually get before you and for free) that claim to be medical covid experts-- and have been proven wrong time and time again by the collective brain trust in this forum. The "Grey Matter Bunch" as I fondly refer to this group, is extremely friendly but also wary of carpet baggers, interlopers, solicitors, and clown shoes.I'm very old. Can you tell me what you just wrote?
We have a high threshold for pain, a low tolerance for stoooopidity, and an allergy to bullsh!t liars that claim to be medical experts.
Hope this helps out ol' timer.
Gabriel is a decent QB but keep in mind that he's probably going to be playing without the rest of CW's receivers.
I'm more confident in our offense next season than OU's.
Defensively is another issue. Our D was the worst I've ever seen in the 40+ years of UT football that I've been following and I don't see where we have improved much on that end. Maybe we get some transfers that will help plug some of our big gaping defensive holes.
And the receivers are a big part of what Caleb did this season. Let’s not forget how many crazy catches they had to make in the red river comeback
Let's be honest-- yes-- some of those catches were crazy-- but how many of them would have been made if say Nathan Vasher or Michael Huff or Aaron Ross were on the coverage? I'm going with-- not enough to win.
Fair enough. Though showing mutual respect is a thing as well. I will take the higher road if necessary from now on lol.
The receiving core may be an issue but the quick signing of Gabriel might stop the bleeding a bit. I would guess Farooq (who didn’t play much this year anyway) and Mario Williams are the only ones definitely gone because of Williams. We lost Haselwood and Stogner (who was under used anyway) to the portal with Hall and Willis heading to the NFL.
I think Wease and West stay, Stoops will obviously stay, and Woods doesn’t have a choice. Mims isn’t tightly connected to Williams and may stay with Gabriel being signed. Anderson and Gibson are too big 2022 spring guys coming in that will help and they signed a few TE/HB type guys. The running backs will all stay.
I think their success at WR will highly depend on the portal to fill some of the gaps. I think things will be fine and possibly better on the whole than last season depending on how that shakes out but it’s way too early to tell.
Y’all’s offense should be decent if the new oline guys and Ewers pan out. Receivers and backfield are both solid.
True, but those dudes played DB in a different game. These days if the WR doesn’t catch it there is going to be a flag
"Rest of receivers"? Who you talking about? Rumor Mario Williams may check out. He was OK. If we get Mims, Farooq, Stoops, Woods (likely gone), West and the newbies OU will be fine at that position and recruited well. Your freshman probably better but doubt overall the talent level will be that much different. And your QB will not have much game experience. But, as always since 1957, assume the RRS will be a close game.
Still has a Covid year but may go to the NFL which would seem ill advised.
Thanks for your kind help. I didn't know there was a hierarchy among dues payers. I pay monthly because I remain unconvinced that I'll be above dirt for a full year and I refuse to go out with anybody owing me; far better that I should be owing.
CWs reason for entering the portal is complete BS. I don't blame the kid, but state it for what it is. It isn't about development, it's about NIL. He currently can't go to a better situation than the one he is currently in. Miami, UCLA, Auburn, Ole Miss, LSU? None of those teams are setup the way OU is with the kids currently in place, a top 10 recruiting class, a top level coaching staff (that keeps being added to) and a Fan Base that literally called for him to be the starting QB. With that being said, I'm extremely excited about Dillon Gabriel (who reminds me of a left handed Baker, the college version). I think the future looks bright for OU (through my Crimson colored glasses of course!).

You talking about Marvin Mims? He’s coming back. I think Theo Wease is returning also (but I might be wrong). Those are OU’s two best receivers.
Don’t forget Stoops is our best possession receiver. People think I’m kidding but it’s true lol
Has 1 school ever had 3 Heisman favorites over the course of 12 months besides OU? Rattler, Williams and now this Gabriel kid will surely be in the discussion
