Not fully confirmed but sources say Capel fired

He's tanned, he's rested, he's ready.....

BRING BACK BILLY!

 

He should have gotten one more year.

 

BOB KNIGHT!!!

 

He is tired and retired To be fair if we hire a guy maed Billy,I'd take him over BCG.

 

ESPNNEWS @ noon says so. SOONER TIME.

 

BCG

 

Capel deserved another year. This season was not his fault. The one senior was a total buffoon and really nothing. Capel got screwed and I do not agree with this decision.

 

Hah, I laughed out loud at this. Good stuff.

 

They have a phrase for early departures in the cases of coaches like Georgia Tech's guy --- victims of their own success.

In Capel's case, he was not a victim and there was no success. Guys just up and left all at once in 2009 and Capel was given a chance LAST YEAR to make the situation right, to bring in replacement players and right the ship from a postseason absence. He didn't get it done, and based on his body language after the game...

He knew what his expectations were for the program and that he didn't meet them. Yes, we surprised many for beating the likes of Baylor and Colorado and OSU et al... but that's not our standard. We needed a signature win this year to show that there's still a chance for greatness... and there wasn't.

The only reason I thought Capel would be gifted another year was because of the buyout and the inability to find a suitable replacement. Joe C. apparently found a way to get the money to oust Capel and perhaps he already has a replacement in mind and is just itching to announce it.

it better not be Sean Sutton.

 

How fast can the Griffin parents pop out a couple more kids?

 

OU text just said Boren and Joe C. confirmed that he is gone. For whatever thats worth.

He had 2 good years here and like it or not, it was because of Blake Griffin. Without BG, his record is 43-51 in the other 3 seasons. A change needed to happen.

 

I am sad for Jeff Capel. I really liked him and thought it was gonna be a good hire. I was wrong and it seems like this is for the best but it does kinda sting me. I was not sad to see Kelvin go but I am for Jeff. Personal reasons I guess.

I did tell you guys yesterday that Mondays are usually the day for this and whatcha know.

Billy Tubbs is retired and should stay that way.

 

Capel went 96-69 in five seasons as coach. But the three seasons without Griffin, where the Sooners went 43-51 and 15-33, did Capel in.
