You will be reintroduced to Stogner this coming Saturday, probably in the endzone. Big target, good hands. If you were up to date on OU you'd know Stogner developed a life threatening strep infection last year from a deep thigh bruise. Lost 35 pounds but is back healthy. Here's a link to bring you up to speed.
I think you OU fans probably need to forget about the Heisman. Bijan has a better chance at the Heisman than Spencer as we stand today
I agree with you but the biggest reason is that every coach since Tom Osborne was a bum. I mean they gave Bo Pellini 8 years. A good coach would have adjusted to the new rules.
Frank Solich says hello. Come on @outhereincali Some of your posts make it seem like you just started watching college football last weekend. Cornhuskers rue the day they cut Solich loose.
I’ll give them a little slack but if they finished top 5 but shit the bed in all their major bowl games. So was their ranking overrated? Probably.

He's a 1st round pick because the potential is there. He has an NFL arm and can make pretty much any throw on the field. His problem is the mental aspect and that's the reason he has dropped as the season has progressed. The NFL is a QB driven league and every year there are 4 to 5 teams desperate to find one. There will be a team that will take a chance on him early just from the potential alone.
Eh I can see the Texans taking him. Worst ownership in the NFL.
It happens every year where a team desperate for a QB reaches and takes a guy with a bunch of question marks. Hell Jerry almost took Manziel over Zack Martin and boy am I glad he didn't lol. Then he turned around and almost traded up to get Paxton Lynch the year after that I believe it was.
My theory is that Osburne was the first coach to really emphasize steroids. I used to work with an ortho surgeon, hardest worker I ever knew. He was all city LB in LA, starting MLB at Harvard. He had friends at USC, mid 70s. He said that Harvard and USC both had steroids at the training table. At Harvard, you weren't told to take them.
He mean, he nasty and doesn't hesitate to slap a knappy headed db with his pimp hand on the way to the endzone
Bingo. And really that's what it's all about, the potential. When Rattler is on he's the best pure passer I've seen roll thru Norman. Our Oline hasn't been great and Rattler has thrown off his back foot a few times that resulted in interceptions but he's got the potential imo no doubt.
Just look at history and how many QBs that were drafted in the 1st round didn't have any business being drafted there. Teams reach in hopes of finding a franchise QB. I think the NFL is going to chew him up and spit him out though. I just don't see him being mentally capable of handling the outside noise that comes with being a high draft pick. I think that's a lot of his problems this year was reading all the press clippings of NFL scouts drooling over him coming into the season.
Hey you may be right but the goal of all these guys is to be a 1st round pick and the money that goes with it. At least that would be my initial goal. You may end up looking like Joe Burrow in the pros with no Oline
Joe Burrow is tearing it up right now. His offensive line has gotten better the last 2 weeks.
My bad, I don't watch pro ball , just read up on it and sounds like Burrow got killed last year and beginning of this year
These things go in cycles, it takes a lot to compete at the highest levels and getting the right pieces in the right places is a complex puzzle to piece together which is why it is so fun and satisfying to watch when everything is clicking.
You might want to check your head to head record with us and Nebraska. We stand at 6-2 us with them and the reality is it was the beatings we gave them that changed Osborne's approach to recruiting where he began to emphasize as we did athleticism and speed at all positions..
