OSU's lawsuit to make Texas look bad

[badger]

If you can't beat them on the field... make them look bad in court.

Cliff's Notes: Former OSU coach goes to UT under the assumption that it's a promotion to calling offensive plays, not a lateral move to do the same thing at another school. Former OSU coach is not calling plays. $600,000 breach of contract lawsuit!

Highlights:


when asked who called most of the plays in a 31-7 bowl game thrashing by Arkansas, when Texas managed just 59 total yards, Strong said, “I don’t know.”


the lawsuit has kicked up a rare legal fight between league rivals capable of peeling back several layers of insight into closed door strategy meetings at big-time programs.


the paltry 43 plays against Arkansas? For the record, Texas ran 18 times against Arkansas for 2 yards.

“I don’t want to remember that game, we were so bad,” Strong said.


Strong said Wickline makes the call to settle a dispute, but quickly backtracked to say “it would be a conversation.” Early in the interview, Oklahoma State’s lawyer noted that Strong’s five core values for his team included honesty.


Oklahoma State lawyers question whether Wickline regularly wore a headset until after the lawsuit was filed last October.

Anyways, it's a fun offseason read. I suspect that money is not the issue here (but it's not like OSU's rolling in it... they have to beg T Boone for their allowance), but to either expose UT football secrets or make them look bad.

Either way... :pop:

It will be alright. T. Bone and Gumby have kissed and made up.

So glad we could prevent the divorce... because if you're keeping track, the only times they speak are around Gooner wins. Sure, there was the honeymoon period when Gundy was first hired in 2005, but since the 2011 "dream season," no speaking till another Gooner win (last fall). Hmmmmm... think they're obsessed with us a bit too much? As Switzer apparently told the Pokes --- we can still count on them for 9 out of 10, even they beat us occasionally.

GET A PRENUP, GUNDY! He's not gonna talk to you again for the next 9-10 years! :stunned:

Assistant head coach Shawn Watson says he does. Offensive coordinator Joe Wickline says he does, too. In fact, they swear they share.

And head coach Charlie Strong? Well, he says they both do, “And I’m on the headset.”

But when asked who called most of the plays in a 31-7 bowl game thrashing by Arkansas, when Texas managed just 59 total yards, Strong said, “I don’t know.”

Who's on first?

This lawsuit does nothing but confirm how small OSU's football penis really is.
