Sooners lose another....

I'd rather see us recruit players that really wanted to come to OU. This kid is too wishy-washy.

Yup

Couldn't care less. I feel about recruiting much like the 1980 U.S. Olympic Hockey coach felt about filling the roster…"Not looking for the best players, looking for the right players."

Sometimes the best players will be the right players…sometimes they wont.

Great Herb quote.

I like what he said before the finals.

"You lose this game you'll regret it for the rest of your ****ing life."
Leaves the room. Comes back, "your ****ing life!"

Ok, what were we talking about?

If the players want to take their visits, they should do it. It's a once in a lifetime dealio. And if they end up coming back and committing to OU, all you fine folks will welcome them with open arms. Admit it.

[birddog]

Yeah I agree, boulder. It wouldn't look near as bad if the kid didn't commit first though. When you commit early then realize you're missing out on some great "vacations" it looks like that kid has soured on the program when it may not necessarily be the case.

[BoulderSooner79]

He may have gotten all caught up in the post Sugar bowl buzz like we all did. Then that Stoops' rule about no other visits hit home. Whatever - if he ends up a Sooner, it won't bother me how he got here. I'm sure we'll fill all our slots regardless.

[Ruf/Nek7]

So it doesn't bother any of you the least bit that an in state, top 100 prospect is shunning OU? No one here is buying in sectionalism? Just curious. I, myself, am not that concerned with it but would love to see OK guys staying in OK.

[BoulderSooner79]

It doesn't bother me that a top 100 prospect doesn't choose to commit early. Many don't commit until very close to signing day. It will certainly bother me if OU doesn't snare the majority of top in state players when viewed statistically over time.
