    Top Athletic Director Candidates

    I think you articulated a lot of what I would say. And you don't have to look far to see a great example of that within the Big 12. TCU with Del Conte is the type of candidate I'd be looking for. He was responsible for the massive success of TCU stepping up in conference affiliation and carving...

    Top Athletic Director Candidates

    Mike Gundy has to be gone first before anyone of note would consider the job. My criteria would be previous employment at a big 10 or sec school. Coming directly from anywhere else in the big 12 should be a disqualifier. We are too behind the curve to take a safe or “comfortable” hire IMO.

    Top 5 new football coaches (if it happens)

    I believe it would be way more prudent to find a GM that is invigorating. Start there and then build the coaching staff.

    Official Game Thread: Oklahoma State vs. Oregon

    Weiberg let OUT happen without having an inkling as to what was going on. That’s an indictment on both him and strum. Strum is gone, Weiberg needs to be next. And if he was having difficultly raising money because of a problematic head coach, it is his job to remove that coach.

    Official Game Thread: Oklahoma State vs. Oregon

    I don’t have much confidence in Chad or anyone associated with OSU athletics historically. Complete rethinking of athletics strategy is needed.

    I was assured that Kenyatta Wright knew how to roster build like an NFL GM…

    This year looks to be all about finding who can build a foundation for next years team.

    Official Game Thread: Oklahoma State vs. Oregon

    I don’t expect to win today. But I do not expect to be boat raced. Gundy has taken our program very far down from where he had it. Sad to see.

    Conference Realignment - What's next?

    This has been my thoughts once the last round was settled. 2029-2031 will have earth shattering changes for college athletics. Very much feels like when the EPL was created.

    OT: General CFB Thread

    Him going to OU would be a bit embarrassing for us too. If his plan was to come back to Oklahoma, I’d hope we were at least the first call.

    OT: General CFB Thread

    Saw something commented on Reddit insinuating something like that. If so, it’s a moronic career move for Knowles.

    This is why football is king. Big 12 needs to prioritize getting teams into playoff with favorable scheduling.

    Gundy Not in Trouble….restructuring

    Gundy literally told boosters to NOT fund NIL when it came out. He doesn’t get a pass on that man.

    Gundy Not in Trouble….restructuring

    Gundy requested boosters put money towards the athletic fund rather than NIL. That is specifically at his direction. He set himself behind the 8 ball. This direction is on Weiberg too, because one of his main functions as AD is fundraising. "Woe is me, it's tough to win here" is such a...
