For about the last 20 years I've despised all things sec. I'll admit because of their success. I can't cry over the inevitable now though. It's a huge move for Sooners and you're right in recruiting picking up. Stars want to play for Riley and now stars want to play for Grinch. It's all coming to balance at OU and recruits are seeing this obviously. Why so many good athletes are willing to sit with the possibilty of never seeing the field at Alabama when they could showcase their skills immediately at another school is a head scratcher. This is a can of worms I never saw coming. But, Sooners need to pick their game up and what better way than to swim with the best each season. And I laughed at your "innovative" recruiting techniques, like most schools don't have their own "unique" methods. 😉I would like to hear from some of the Sooners on here....
It occurs to me that in the event this does come off that the biggest winner might be OU. I would think that while our recruiting would benefit, OU's might really,really go up. I would expect them to be even more successful in raiding Texas HS talent than they are now.Lests face it.....they win. Not only that but I think they are light years ahead of the SEC in ....uh...er..."innovative" recruiting techniques. If aggy thinks UT will hurt them recruiting wise wait until they watch OU in action.
Oh, aggy is sweatin it right now for sure. 😁
Edit to add this.......
