I'm not a Dallas Cowboys fan. However Dallas has a lot of prestige and most of their fans will remind you of the Super Bowls in the 90's or however many they have won overall. Anybody on here a Dallas Cowboys fan? I'm betting you really enjoy, listening to their lackadaisical excuses week in and week out and there acceptance of mediocrity. I heard on Monday Jerry Jones was excited and defending his coaching staff and team because they are currently in 1st place in the NFC East. Who cares that they are 5-5 right now, because hey they're tied for 1st in the worst division in the NFL. Who cares that realistically they aren't going to be competing for a Super Bowl this year or next year and so on...
I get the Dallas Cowboys vibe from Bob Stoops. "we got another big 12 championship" or "we are proud to share the big 12 championship with K-State" Or before the season Bob was asked about competing with the SEC and he said "Well which SEC teams are talking about?" (obviously defending the fact that the SEC is over hyped and they are great at the top but have some bad teams towards the bottom just like any conference) The fact of the matter is...the question is competing against oh I don't know...Alabama, LSU, Texas A&M, Florida, South Carolina, Georgia. All of whom except for possibly Florida would beat OU by at least 2 touchdowns this year, no doubt.
But hey at least we are competing for that Big 12 Championship or at least a share of it, right? (Well not this year.)
Coaching matters more in football than any other of the major sports (Basketball, Baseball, Football) just ask the 2012 Saints who didn't have Sean Payton for the season. Ask the current Baylor Bears team...Art Bryles isn't out recruiting a lot of the teams they are ranked a head of right now. Ask the Texas Longhorns they have one of the best recruiting classes year in and year out and as long as Mack is still their head coach they aren't competing for a national title again. Ask Ohio State...they were 6-7 the season before Urban Meyer came to town and he is 21-0 with those players. If Saban (God forbid) leaves Alabama and goes to Texas...Stoops won't beat Texas again until Saban retires I'd bet my entire year's salary on it.
The fact is and some of you haven't accepted it or turn a blind eye to it or just don't want to accept it...if the playing field is even and the opposing team has a good coach...Stoops is going to lose. Don't tell me about his record against Texas...I already pointed out that Mack Brown is not that good of a coach.
Also I hate when a coach says "we just didn't come ready to play today" Reporters never follow that up with "Well, why didn't you come ready to play today?" just a lame excuse for a coach to get out of some of the blame.
But Stoops is such a great guy and a classy guy...I couldn't care less. All I want from a football coach is W's.
Unfortunately, OU is stuck in the but if we get rid of Stoops who are we going to get that's better boat.
