    I don't necessarily think he will be either. He doesn't come with the credentials of Stoops, and he doesn't seem to be capable of being utterly clueless like Blake.

    Re: Will Capel be a Stoops-type hire or...

    I was stationed with the USMC in Norfolk,Va (MCSFBn) while his dad was a coach at ODU. His dad was a good coach although often outmanned by a lot of schools in that area such as Hampton, Maryland, UVA, VaTech, Duke, UNC, NCState, Georgetown.

    Right now I'd say I'd say that Sampson for Capel is not a good trade but I think the kid might actually be a great hire and really ignite a spark. I like that he's young. He's 3 years younger than me. I hope he brings a lot of eneregy and a lot of excitement.

    All we can do is get behind him because he is our new coach.

    I would say somewhere between. I hope it's not a Blake type hire.

    Blake graduated from OU in 82. He would have had to have been about 17 when he graduated in order to be 31 in 1996. Blake was atleast in his mid 30's.

    Actually he stopped playing in 82. He didn't graduate until '86. So, you might be right about his age, but you are wrong about something. This is nothing new. I just wanted to point it out.

    He will be a Stoops like hire. He'll win us a national title or more. This is the right hire. If coach K wants to hand his program over to you if he were retiring tomarrow...it means this guy is good. Joe C. wanted him all along. I'm a fan.

    BOOMER SOONER!

    Well there is winning the lottery, pie eating contests, texas hold'em, a game of horse, winning respect...

    If Dude wins the National Title and wins a pie eating contest will you go on record as saying he is 'good'?

    Who would be invited to that contest?

    If Big XII North coaches are allowed to participate, and Caple wins, I'd build him a 300 ft tall statue in Tulsa.

    That wouldn't even rival the 900 foot Jesus that Oral saw.
