The former QB of whom we don't speak...

[BajaOklahoma]

is on his way to the Vikings, per ESPiN.

I'm seeing lots of "former Sooner" and "Big Red Sports" in his future.

[oumartin]

I actually wish him well. He was dumb and made a mistake. OU is fine and hopefully one Brent Rhombar will be fine too.

[mdklatt]

He can't be worse than Tarvaris Jackson. I mean holy ****ing ****, how is Tarvaris Jackson an NFL quarterback?

[swardboy]

I would be very happy for Romar to succeed. His attitude was exceptional throughout the situation and since. He knew he laid a big egg.

Jackson was amazing in college. Sometimes QB's don't work out in the NFL (see Ryan Leaf)

[oumartin]

He played for Alabama State, probably not hard to stand out. Childress was a bafoon and drafted him in the second or third round and he was at best a last round pick

[mdklatt]

Surely he's been around long enough for this to be obvious.

[StoopTroup]

If he does well....it shows two things. We were right to let him go and he's a survivor who was able to overcome the situation he put himself in.

Both were good things.

[usaosooner]

Without the Bomar situation Sam Bradford wouldn't be Sam Bradford. Time to let it go

[Breadburner]

Great game to watch if the announcers would get Farves **** out of their mouths......

[oumartin]

Peterson is such a wuss.

[birddog]

i'm sure the vikes will have a team of men at the ready to "rough up" mr. bromar if he gets within 100 yds of brhett during workouts (mangino's next gig perhaps?).

that er the vikes could pay mr. bromar AND [hairGel] a pantload of cashe, with the condition that :stunned: . hire mr. bromar as a recruiting specialist. that'd be sweet.

[VA Sooner]

Bomar is the better QB for sure but will need time to learn the system.

Jackson is just plain bad. A great college QB who couldn't make the transition and unfortunately for him, has unbelievable pressure to success playing in the shadows of Favre.

Agreed. Jackson can make a roster all along, but Graham Harrell gets signed yesterday to a practice squad? I'd like to compare their college numbers.

[85sooners]

:pop:

[TUSooner]

Good luck to him. If his failure would actually help OU, I might bash him. But it won't, so I won't. The guy knows he screwed up big time; I hope he gets redemption big time.

Idk Sam is a special person, he prolly would of beat him for the job!
:gary:

[madillsoonerfan5353]

This just in... my source said Sam the Ram man is the one who turned in Brett Rohmar! :gary:

Really? Because I recall his saying he was the fall guy and there were things going on here that he couldn't talk about.

Sounded like crybaby bull**** to me.

what does the college numbers have to do with anything?

[BigJerm7]

Gee, I don't know. Someone else brought it up first saying how great Jackson was in college.

Think you're thinking of JD Quinn, the other guy who was paid to "wash cars."

[RADsooner]

Jackson ended up at Alabama State cuz he couldnt win the starting QB job at Arkansas..........ARKANSAS!!!

[stoops the eternal pimp]

Gee, I don't know. Someone else brought it up first saying how great Jackson was in college.

Graham Harrell had better college numbers than Matt Ryan...what does that mean?

[RacerX]

Graham Harrell had better college numbers than Matt Ryan...what does that mean?

It means that Leach likes his offenses to throw the ball a lot. Or so I've heard.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

racerX has all the inside info..

[texaspokieokie]

Graham Harrell had better college numbers than Matt Ryan...what does that mean?

harrell had better numbers than anyone. he should wish for leach to get a job in the nfl.

[stoops the eternal pimp]

well, it didn't do much for danny weurffel when spurrier took over in the NFL :)


The point is, comparing harrell and jackson's college numbers doesn't prove anything...

And maybe Im being a jerk because I was involved in the scouting of Tarvaris Jackson

[Wishboned]

Bomar took his punishment like a man. Unlike his father.

I hope he goes to the Vikings and does well.

^^ This plus all of the other positive comments about him. If he has made peace with Stoops and his former teammates then I sure ain't gonna carry a grudge. Let it go.

[cccasooner2]

Why in the hell would the Vikings want another TJ? Bomar is a duplicate of TJ with a different pigmentation. Watching these two monkeys play football is like watching a 25+ handicap golfer stink up a round of golf. Sure they may nail one straight down the middle for 300 yds and sink a 45 foot putt but in the end their score is 101.

[sooneron]

Dude, Bomar > Jackson. easily.

[Mad Dog Madsen]

^^^This.


Tarvaris is terrible...

[mdklatt]

Gee, I don't know. Someone else brought it up first saying how great Jackson was in college.

It's one thing to take a flyer on an FCS (?) player with good college numbers. It's quite another to keep him around after it's obvious that he succs.
