If you’re on spring break, hope you are enjoying it!
– Hunter Rison: By now, most of you are familiar with 2017 WR Hunter Rison (Ann Arbor, MI). Rison has emerged as a top Oklahoma WR target and it sounds like the feelings are very much mutual. We noted previously that Rison will visit Oklahoma between April 5th – 7th.
We are told that if Rison and his family like what they see at Oklahoma, a decision could happen during his time in Norman. However, Rison has a lot of options in general so again, the visit will likely be the deciding factor. But we are told that the family is coming for the purpose of evaluating everything for the purpose of potentially making an immediate decision.
Rison is being recruited by Sooner Squad 17 (if you’ve been under a rock, that’s the group of OU commits who have been building relationships with a lot of top recruits).
Rison will be in Norman with his mother who currently lives in Arizona. Rison’s mother tells us that distance is not an issue as she is considering relocation to wherever Hunter decides to play and attend school. – (Super K)
– Kobe Boyce: For the most part, the Sooners are done with their 2017 defensive backs class. Obviously, players like Jeffrey Okudah or Kary Vincent are always going to be more than welcomed but the Sooners like who they’ve got currently committed. A cornerback target that could receive an offer from Oklahoma to really round out the class is long and speedy CB, Kobe Boyce (Lake Dallas, TX).
Boyce has picked up offers recently from schools like Houston and Arkansas. He posted great numbers at the Dallas Regional Opening running a sub 4.5 to go along with a 37.5 inch vertical. Boyce also measured in at 6’0 tall which is what makes him intriguing to Oklahoma. They’d like to round out the class with a longer cornerback.
Boyce tells me he has been in communication with coach Cooks for a while now. He also tells me that Cooks has let him know an offer could be coming anytime now. I spoke to Boyce yesterday on his way back from a visit to Arkansas (a visit he really seems to have enjoyed) and it’s clear if the Sooners get involved he will make his way up to Norman pretty quickly for a visit.
However, Boyce’s family is originally from California and once the spring is here I fully expect his offer sheet to explode and I fully expect that list to include some of the California schools. Having said that, the Sooners have proximity to his immediate family and a ton of momentum right now. – (Super K)

Aubrey . I just agree… Stanley `s posting is shocking, last thursday I bought a great Saab 99 Turbo after I been earnin $6709 this – 5 weeks past and also ten k last munth . this is definitely the coolest job I‘ve had . I actually started 10-months ago and pretty much immediately began to bring in over $78, per hour . read,……….….http//EmployeeAppreciationDay.org/GetPaid/98$hourly

Wow! She can afford a car that was last made in 1984. Woo hoo!
But its a SAAB /S
BOOM
Sure makes for a long week without TFB!
It’s a world of confusion
I could help her if shes confused.
Yeah I could too———
Really? She’s incredibly plain.
Kristen, I’m jealous of the rain that falls upon your skin. It’s closer than my hands have been. Don’t get me started about the wind.
——— Awwwwww Higgs!
Metz, I sense a kindred spirit…I’m SOOO sorry…
lMAO We all share!
Every offseason feels longer than the last for me.
Good lookin’ out Super K. Nice OP! It sounds like if the coaches can swoon Ms. Rison we should get a much needed BOOM in April.
4 cb’s in one class? One will most likely leave if that’s the case. JMO.
Coach Cooks is rockin Twitter with “who’s next”, I’m not really sure he’s done yet.
Bob needs to give him an associate HC or Co-DC title soon to keep him around. He’s improved play on the field and is a great recruiter. He deserves it.
No associate HC.
It’s merely a title to improve his pay grade. It doesn’t change much.
My guess is that now class is pretty solid Cooks is focusing all attention to Okudah. If they snag him man the defensive unit of 2018 and 2019 could be real nasty.
Broiles is a CB/S prospect and Bandy is a nickle / CB
Here are the scholarship guys we will have listed at CB or DB by the time they get on campus:
12 William Johnson CB 6-0 182 So. Baltimore, Md. (Monroe CC)
2 P.J. Mbanasor CB 6-0 192 Fr. Pflugerville, Texas (Hendrickson HS)
39 Darius Owens CB 5-10 182 RSo. Yukon, Okla. (Henderson State University) (Yukon HS)
7 Jordan Thomas CB 6-0 191 So. Klein, Texas (Klein HS)
Antoine Stephens DB 6-1 186 Fr. Dallas, Texas (Kimball HS)
Thomas could potentially leave after this season. I think there is plenty room on the roster.
Also Jordan Parker and Parnell Motley.
True. I left out the 2016 class. Though they will only have one year experience ahead of these guys. Are we sure Motley will play CB? He is listed as an “athlete” he might be a WR since there is need there too. Also Owens is a walk-on and I would think JT would turn pro since he is already an all B-12 player. Another year of that and it doesn’t make a lot of sense for him to stay.
It’s always hard to tell with DB’s because a lot of times they switch between CB, S, and NB.
I have no clue about Motley, I’m just going off what the Brainiacs have said, they feel he’s a for sure corner. Man I just hope Thomas and Parker don’t leave before they’re ready to go in either the first or second round. I hate to see guys leave early for anything less than second round. I do love the depth Cooks has been pulling in though. Just keep bringing in studs each year and let them sort themselves out.
I hope we rotate guys in the defensive backfield instead of playing Zach Sanchez every play with one arm hurt
Some could be a safety or used as NB talent finds a way to get on the field no matter what.
Mike is going to a 3-0-8 with 6 CBs on the field all the time
Tavon Tavon Tavon.
That’s what they ran his 1st year back.
And it was a disaster.
I remember that game with WVU that year, when the WR was moved into the backfield and had a career day.
Hes still running!
He just scored again.
We still got the W, lol.
I was kidding about Tavon Austin
The 2-9 Might work.
a Gerald McCoy and Tommie Harris, 3 Derrick Straits, and 6 Roy Williams?
Exactly!
I’d take 10 Roy Williams and 1 Gerald McCoy and I’d have the best D in college football.
I loved Roy Williams for his hustle and bravery on the field, but he was not the best cover guy.
I believe we tried that in his 1st year back at OU. We were good against the pass but couldn’t stop the run at all…tavon Austin, Collin Klein, Everett Gholson come to mind…
We’re losing 2 and potentially 4 starters in the secondary after the season.
You think Parker and J. Thomas declare after next season?
Where are the D-line offers…?
Have not heard of many ‘offers’. Other than Marvin Wilson the only other names I hear are a couple of OK kids, Deontre Thomas and Brendon Evers (neither have offers) and Deiontae Watts out of Plano, TX. Who else??
edit: Greg Rogers Las Vegas
Doesn’t this look like Jordan’s handwriting to anyone else, I thought he was on vaca this week!
https://twitter.com/TheFbBrainiacs/status/710151410877214720
There probably all chatting it up on the texsa tfb.
Rison, Wallace and Rambo at WR seems like a great class
I think Lamb is the better than all of them. Have to keep that kid on board.
I don’t see lamb sticking to his commitment, based on his past statements. If not, oh well. We’ll find another receiver. Easy to recruit good receivers to this offense.
Rison, Wallace, and Rambo are the kids I want! I am think Lamb may be in love with LSU though but, I can’t see hie fellow 17 commits allowing him to slip away easy!
If one drops out, I want Shavers.
This ’17 class is going to be nuts… loving the relationship they’re forming
SoonerSquad17 is like: Get you some, bro!

was watching some Marvin Wilson highlights, that kid makes all kinds of plays with power, burst and athletic ability, but he also makes a lot of plays with hustle because teams just run away from him.
Gerald McCoy 2.0, send coach Cooks down there to recruit him at every opportunity.

Downtown is already being invaded for the tourney. Pack your patience if you go eat down here.
Yeah just saw that, not to often you have an hour plus wait at lunch.
You must have went to Fuzzy’s as well? I knew i better go today. It will be next week before the crowd thins out.
No we went to Tobys, I do like Fuzzys though.
Afraid I will have to travel away from Downtown for lunch the next couple of days. It is good for business though. I am confused on why they made the OU game during the early session. IMO, It would be better for a night game.
I know same here, its good to see the city booming though. I tend to agree with you, maybe they wanted the other teams to spend the day out in OKC. usually teams like to visit the bombing memorial.
It is a sight. I see it every morning. It is a must see. You live here locally?
Oh yeah, I live in the MWC/Choctaw line. Ive been here all my life. It definitely is something that every Oklahoman should experience.
Absolutely!! Born and raised on SouthSide. However lived here my whole life and never seen a twister live.
Ive seen 2, May 3rd 1999 we got caught in Heritage Park Mall, and May 2005 wiped out half of my neighborhood, luckily my house was fine. Wouldn’t want to live anywhere else other than Oklahoma though.
No we went to Tobys, I do like Fuzzys though.
We’re at 60. Only 21 hours left to get signed up.

How do you change display name?
Nevermind. I found it. Just click Options link on top of page.
Yep. Sorry so slow on the response.
I’m way tech challenged. Mine was in my real name at first, but I finally got it changed over. Glad I wasn’t the only one! Lol. My bracket is a joke since I’m such a horrible picker.
The site seems to be screwed up.
It wouldn’t work on Chrome on my PC. When I used the CBS Sports App on Android it would let me fill out bracket. Otherwise, I don’t think you can fill it out.
No bad moon???
Hoping Hunter Rison and his mom are blown away on their visit to OU. Need as many of the SoonerSquad17 as possible in Norman to seal the deal. They all be like ……
CSB is OU’s first round opponent.

WOW!
Glad to hear they are safe.
According to the article it appears to be a medical emergency with one of the members of the traveling party, but not a coach or player.
Planes and college basketball makes your heart skip a beat!
If Baker Mayfield played for Cal State Bakersfield, would this strike anyone as being unusual?
OU better beat them. Half the staff I work with graduated from CSUB.

ROTFLOL! Well until the dinosaurs come back and someone unseats them, they can run their mouth. But it is basketball, it is a second tier sport as far as money is concerned. 🙂
Hey, today I saw a direct quote from Shaka about his texsa job in a DO article actually saying “There’s only one University of Texas”. Lol. Copycat!!

Incredible.
Could the elections puh-lease end before football season? I don’t want to sacrifice any CFB media space for Turd A vs. Turd B.
I looked for you on the ballot but couldn’t find you so I just scratched out Gilmore and wrote Robertson.
Hey buddy, you voting for Bernie Trump or Donald Sanders, I’m trying to make up my mind. (They all seem to be running together in my mind)
I’m voting male with a coin flip.
Heads or balls. Call it on the flop.
I’m so confused.
We had better choices but people were too “angry” to see it.
I think there’s a lot of truth in that comment!
Win nah! Apparently the concept that multi generational problems take more than five minute solutions escapes the public. We get exactly what we deserve. So, stalins daughter or mussollinis son.
Any way I can just save my vote this year and vote twice in 2020?
You know, if ‘commies’ and ‘racists’* talked about their political visions with the same fervor with which dudes talk about beer preferences, we could all probably stop being idiots long enough to actually make a difference.
*And whatever neologism that’s fever-dreamed to posture one’s preferred turd as somehow less of a turd than the other turd.
(Gee thanks for making me look that up) Flush the turds?
That’s what I’m talking about, Rick. Flush 2016!
I first voted in a presidential election in 1976. I don’t remember a bigger bunch on *&%$#@’s on the stinking ballot than we have this year.
It’s not just the selection that stinks, but also the electorate. The Executive was never supposed to be this important in the American mind’s eye (you know, the whole “three co-equal branches” stuff). The philosophy is lost, and the result is invariably two messiahs from either side of the monkey cage.
Somewhere in history, the president started out a servant of the people and became the world’s most powerful person.
Big George was many things but humble was not one of them.
Cruz is the man. But even Trump’s butler would be better then Clinton or Obama! People who have accomplished nothing except community organizing and that area is worse now then it was before the “organizing” after 8 years of him being President should resign in disgrace, and those who are known solely as the spouse of a President because they cannot cite a single piece of legislation that helped ANYONE while a Senator- nor a single country, region or even our ALLIES better now then they were before she BECAME Secretary of State is a stunning and unprecedented level of incompetence. God save this great nation of ours.
Does “polititurdinoid” qualify as a neologism for a 2016 presidential candidate?
I like it. It’s unisex. You know, for those #IAmWoman! candidates and their supposed VJJs.
The socialist does talk with that fervor. But his century old ideas haven’t worked anywhere, have resulted in millions of deaths through starvation and poor central planning and are the opposite of the individualism and self sufficiency this country was based on.
So, pick the fascist or the socialist? Decisions, decisions…..
I’m gonna walk up in that mug and wipe my butt with the ballot. They can tally by the smear. Wherever it lands.
The outhouse plan.
It’s a foolproof go-to when navigating dissonance.
kinda like a well devised c7 chord in the 2nd inversion?
LOL! If by whatever the heck you just typed you mean a long, Cortizone-bubble fart, then yes.
Funny that you mention that. I work on an AF base with a bunch of pilot trainees. Every time I flush, I say “direct fax to Obama complete!”.
Only 24 days until SPRING GAME, y’all.
Hello? Guys? Anybody here?
Whats up slim?
Nothin’. I was lonesome.
Lol I’m feeling that.
If you guy are lonesome, you would really hate my job!
Just barely.
All here, but not all there. Nam sayin’?
Lights are on but nobody’s home?
You got it, man. 🙂
We need a BOOM! Who’s next?
I don’t know who is, but I know who the #SoonerSquad17 is recruiting really hard on twitter:
https://twitter.com/918TylerHughes/status/704133361309102080
Wish they would get on some more linemen.
SoonerSquad17 recruits are the best recruiters! May they keep on keepin’ on.
Maybe Rison?
Could be #10. I’d give him a boom for sure.
Last time posting the link before games start tomorrow morning. If anyone still wants in, now’s the time. Only 13 hours left.

Oh good. I knew it was missing something.
LOL! Someone to pick on?
Just good-natured ribbing.
Won’t bother me at all. I can take it as well as dish it out. Good luck. GO SOONERS!
No one else should enter….because I am going to win it!
I’ve won the bracket a couple of times in my life. But I lose more often than I win. I pick too many upsets in the first two rounds. LOL
Sound advice.
Tulsa playing well against Mich. Good game
#WeWantRambo this recruiting class is Lit!
https://twitter.com/boomer145/status/710295681475461120
Thats so cool. Gotta love this group.
We need to make head way at WR like 3 studs and like 3DTs and two more stud lbs and one of those big DBs Okudah or Vincent and another RB I’d be happy with this class. Mean we still got a ways to go but Rambo and Rison would be a great WR combo a lil R&R on O
Marcelius Sutton doesn’t count as an RB. Recruited an athlete
TFB said RB everything else says RB I say RB but I’ve also said we would take 3 in this class he may be an athlete but he will play RB at OU most likely or in the return game.
Agreed, In my mind, the biggest positions of need for this class are DL, ILB and WR. After the last few classes, I think we need to try to stockpile these positions this year and then pick up 1 or 2 at every other position. Then obviously, you have to sign a lot of OL and DB of course too.
Well on the OL I can see maybe 1-2 more kids cause the last 2 classes we signed quite a few but you can never have enough and the DB class was going be bigger this year. Think it was thought 4-5 of course you get Vincent or Okudah or both you take them and maybe not so many the next season. LB in general needs help we kind of took some guys to fill areas last year. Not saying Jackson and Kelly where not big gets as was BY but, no one seems to know what’s up with BY, DeBerry the year before now get Draper, Hines, and Jordan-Swelling or Browning in this class WOW. WR is the spot I think we need to hit a few homeruns on this cycle!
————– Good Morning
Morning Doc! I will be out pretty much the rest of the week as I have been all week. UGH! Busy week. BOOMER SOONER!
It’s a good time to be busy with the site being part time right now.
Yes and I am furious because I have to be on the road when the Sooners play tomorrow. I’ll have to listen to the game on Sirius and use my imagination (like the old days). LOL
I will miss the first half then I’m good to go. Good luck on the road.
Thank you.
Morning everyone. Has anyone talked to Dick Bump this week? I have some info for him. Anyone else out there considering cutting the cord with cable/satellite that may not have seen the big news announced this week by Sony that they have streaming “cable” that includes all ESPN channels and all the FoxSports channels for like $45 a month? The catch is you have to have a PlayStation 3 or 4 to sign in the first time. But it can be seen on a computer, Amazon Fire TV/Stick, PS3 or PS4, or and Android TV box.
Thanks Golf. That is great news!
Here is a link to it:
https://www.playstation.com/en-us/network/vue/#1
You DO NOT need a Playstation to sign up for this. You will have to sign in on an iPad or Android tablet from your home network or a home computer for the first time. Then it will work with Amazon Fire products. At this time it does not work with Roku.
Here is the sign in link:
https://account.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/reg/account/create-account!input.action?request_locale=en_US
No History channel. Dang.
Not yet. But there is a History Channel App for the Amazon Fire.
Playstation tv is actually pretty awesome.
I gave it and sling tv a go..
Both are running smooth.
PSTV has the cloud DVR..huge plus for us.
Thanks for the info Dawg. I have a couple of friends that have it and they have said the same thing. I am signing up for it next week (I’m out of town right now) and telling Dish to take a flying leap.
Saying goodbye to directv has gone much smoother than I thought.
I think its def worth a try. There’s no contract.. so if for whatever reason it doesnt suit you.. go back to the cable.
You do need to make sure your internet is good from Modem to router.
I didn’t have any issues but a couple of my neighbors needed to upgrade.
I have 60Mbps download Internet. My wifi even pulls down 50Mbps during peak times. My PS3 is plugged in with an ethernet cable. I should be good. I stream movies and TV from Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu now with no problems. I’m looking forward to trying this out. I am also getting a Tablo DVR that streams local channels over wifi in the house to all the TV’s from one antenna. That should be a big help as well.
Whoa that’s cool. I need to look into the Tablo..
I just have a basic HD antenna.
It is really cool. You plug your HD antenna into the Tablo and the Tablo into your router with an ethernet cable. They have a 2 tuner and 4 tuner model for recording and it can stream up to 6 channels at once. If you have a Roku, Amazon Fire, Android TV, or Apple TV device you can stream to the App for each one and watch live TV. There is a subscription for the guide listing, but you can buy a lifetime subscription for $150. I am waiting for them to be back in stock as everywhere I have looked has been out of stock. But they look awesome. You can also watch on your phone anywhere you have internet access. Pretty sweet if you ask me.
Best cord-cutting device I’ve seen to date. It is very tempting for me to ditch DirecTV. But I don’t want to give up the Golf Channel. Sooner Football and Golf have me chained.
Playstation Vue has the golf channel. Just saying. 🙂
Check out the Amazon series, Bosch. Really good show.
I’m in the middle of the second season. I have read almost all of those books. Love that series.
Also love The Americans on FX
We are looking to cut the cord in the next month. I was looking into Sling but the catch was not having Fox Sports. I am going to look into this. Thanks Golf!
You are welcome. We have been working on cutting the cord as well. I am actually excited about getting FoxSports this way. That was the one thing keeping me from cutting the cord. There is no way in the world I am giving up Sooners live football. You’d have to kill me first.
I hear that. We were going to do it either way and I was going to spend a lot of Saturday’s at BWW’s. I also watch nearly every Thunder game and now I don’t have to miss any of that either.
Yeah, my wife was asking me about missing the OU games. I was like, never in life. I told her once I could figure out how to get the games without having cable/satellite I was going to do it. This came out a week after our discussion. I am stoked for it.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day. Thanks for the info. I just got a new antenna and working my way to saying adios to Directv. I think I can find a PlayStation. There’s not too much until football season starts. By the end of summer there may be some other options.
Read below, there is no need for a playstation. You can sign up on your computer or tablet from home. I have an amazon fire, so this makes a lot of sense for me. I will be saying goodbye to Dish by the end of the month.
Golf do you use kodi/tvaddons by chance?
Not yet. I am ordering an Nvidia Shield and am going to play around with Kodi and see what I can figure out with it.
Easy Easy Easy. Youtube and googling pulled me through it and I am not an IT person at all. My family watches soooo much stuff on it including sports, but I worry that I will not be able to get an OU football game at some point. TV shows, movies, cartoons, tons of sport channels, great feeds.
I have heard a bit about it and watched a couple of YouTube videos on it. I will be looking into it more next week that is for sure.
Great! That makes it even easier. I think AT&T buying Directv may not turn out to be so wise an investment.
I agree with you. I loved their Uverse TV when I lived in KC, but they are not and will never offer it where I live now. DTV does not even offer our locals in HD where I live. No way I would ever go back to DirecTV either. They are too expensive. I have liked Dish, but they are getting pricey as well. And I really do not watch half the channels we have. And I only watch sports for live TV so I am excited about cutting the cord.
I have been a Directv customer since they began by buying out Primestar. I will soon no longer be a customer as (IMHO) Directv has gone way down since ATT.
Good morning! Its 7:23 and texsa sucks!
Hey you know what Texsa still sucks
A thing of beauty. Thank you.
Absolutely.

Ah Jennifer Connelly. She was as hot as that other thing is putrid.
She was perfect still hot to this day.
Colt McCoy’s other brother.
Hey, that does kinda look like Case!
This is the one they hide in the closet!!
That’s right. Found him on google.
The question is, Is there ever a time when Texsa DOES NOT SUCK?
Morning, Metz! It’s 9:21 and you are CORRECT!!!!!
Mornin,Slim
Metz, you da man!
Mornin Jake!
Morning TFB friends and family hope all have a blessed day!
Good morning all!!! “It is another fine day to be a SOONER” NOW GET TO WORK!!!!!!
This time change crud has me all out of rhythm. Slept through my alarm for the first time, EVER, this morning. We need to start a petition to stop moving the clocks forward and backward! Outside of that, it’s a phenomenal morning to be a Sooner!
I have seen in the news lately a lot of states are pushing for it. But then you have to decide which one to stay with.
Morning, good afternoon, and good evening 47!
Good everything to you, Golf!
Morning Jake. I will talk with you more next week. About to hit the road again.
Be safe & God bless!
Mornin,Golf!!
Top o’ the mornin, laddies and Happy St. Patrick’s Day. I’ll be working on doing nothing but watching basketball today. Retirement is a good thing!
Good morning SS, I got pinched by a happy plump waitress this morning because I own no green clothing. (Reminds me of Baylor)
Morning, Rick. I refuse to wear the green, also. Just have to suffer the pinchers.
That’s the way I look at it, and if I have to endure it a happy plump waitress is alright by me.
Right, there are worse things for sure!
I have green eyes, that is the only green I have on today.
Morning, Golf. You might still get a pinch unless you wink a lot.
LOL! Well I won’t be around anyone to pinch me. I have seen my Dad today and will see my 2.5 year old granddaughter later tonight and my mom. That’s about it. I think I’ll be ok.
Yep, you’re safe.
The only green I have is in my wallet. (and not a lot of it these days)
Mornin,Slim!!!
47!!!
Jake!!!! Mornin!!
Maybe not everyone is aware, but those Boomer and Sooner versions were designed by Disney consultants.
Mid mornin to ya London!! Was not aware of that.
Good morning all
I wish everyone a happy and safe Spring break March Madness Patties Day
Epic party mash up.
UGH! Some of us are on the road, not much a party driving in your pickup for hours on end. LOL. Morning!
Yes we are! Stay safe my friend. 🙂
You too Rick. Look out for the morons in the 4 wheel vehicles. I had one cut off one of my trucks yesterday, passing him only then to slam on his brakes to turn. My driver was lucky no one was coming from the other direction, otherwise he would have ran over this idiot.
I had a couple of kids in small cars pass me and my escorts on the right shoulder, (made me pee just a little)
Wow, just wow. That is insane. People are so stupid. One thing that I love is the Dashcam. It answers all questions for idiots like that.
Yep…I’ve been looking into that. This is the one I have been looking in to. When you’re over 14′ wide, it’s just too much to try to keep up with by yourself. http://www.amazon.com/HP-Dashcam-f520g-SuperHD-Tracking/dp/B00YY3XUFG/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1458224060&sr=8-10&keywords=dash+cam+hp
Insurance should give you a break for that as well. I only have one truck with it in there right now. And that was the truck that swerved around the morons. They are really darn good to have.
Morning, Birddawg!
For those of you needing something to do in between basketball games this weekend.

And thank you Metzker for that gif(t).
Thank you
Was thinking about this last night but in the last two years, have we seen a new wave of recruiting tactics in college football? I’m not as aware with other colleges like I am OU, but it seems there has been a bigger emphasis on the players taking ownership of this team and recruiting their peers. You would have to assume the coaches are telling these other recruits to go out and get these stars. Plus we have read it hear a couple of times about the new type of recruiting from the coaches. Just found it interesting and wonder if it will be a trend setter for the other big time programs if its not already?
Very interesting question. I assume it’s because of the increasing importance of social media in all these high schooler’s lives, but it is interesting that the usually heavy handed NCAA seems to stay away from trying to regulate peer to peer communications that are far more intrusive then anything the coaches or supporters are allowed to do. And it is just fine that they don’t! But it does seem to indicate an increasingly important part of recruiting that isn’t monitored or controlled in the way that every other way is.
Thought the same thing. I wonder if only time will tell or would the NCAA be able to do anything since these kids are in high school. It seems that like their hands are tied
as I’ve said before I live in College Station so I hear about the Aggies all the time..Yesterday, I was having lunch with my best friend and he was telling me about how they’re recruiting and how they have a hashtag (gigemgang17 if you haven’t heard) and how they have Tate Martell recruiting players and how big of a difference those two things are making this year…I didn’t have the heart to tell him that the Sooners also have a hashtag but they have 6 kids recruiting other recruits rather than just one…

No she moved away and married that dude, Bonzo or was it Gonzo, something like that, but she was a beautiful girl! 😉

New i had it wrong,thanks.
Always here to help.
It is somewhere i am sure!!! Mornin, metz!!
Mornin, 47!
Well, hellooo.
Morning Pagan!
Hey! Wasn’t talking to you Metz! But how’s it going, LOL!
My bad.Been good thanks.
Oooooh my. Huge crush on Phoebe after that scene. Great movie.
Afternoon,hOU!
Hey Metz! Pretty slow here lately but getting a lot more stuff accomplished. And get out and enjoy some nice weather.
——
HOT
You and about every single red blooded american male in the country! It’s funny how her career sky rocketed then she pretty much was content to be a house wife.
Who did she marry,Rick?
Kevin Kline
I’m ready for summer
In San Diego. Waking up to March Madness is good!
I always wondered where #SoonerSquad17 originated.
http://www.scout.com/college/oklahoma/story/1652655-origins-of-soonersquad17?hootPostID=0d9ab7b60b60307b7aef3ca60ea240a1
Amazing how often something good happens in recruiting and Chip Viney’s name comes up! That is the way to get promoted in any job! There’s just so much positive “buzz” created by him. We need to hold on to that young man!
I tried at times before he got his position to get some Twitter traction going for his support to a permanent hiring. My efforts mostly fell on it’s cyber face. A young dude who relates, cares, is ambitious, uses his skills on the field, and his social media skills off the field to create. I’m impressed!
Truth.
Great story. Draper and Barnes, an OU legacy and an Okie kid, both Sooner born and Sooner bred, along w/ ace Chip Viney are leading #SoonerSquad17 out of the tunnel. Thanks for sharing.
Great article. Thanks for sharing this. I loved this quote from the article.
“The group message right now? There’s nine of us,” Barnes said. “There’s eight commits and then one more. You’re just going to have to wait. Shout out to him, you know you who you are.”
….. Happy St Patrick’s Day TFBers ….. BOOMER!!!
Lmaooooooooo!
SOONER!
They’re too drunk to even notice.
They’re probably too busy fighting somewhere.
Fighting family members on the front lawn…
I think they used to be my neighbors.
McNeighbors can be difficult.
Good luck to everyone who entered the TFB Bracket Challenge. 79 entries. I only expected about 20, to be honest. Anyhooooo, who ya got for the opening session?
Duke
Texas Tech
UCONN
Iowa St.
I took Butler over T. Tech, but the other three are what I have as well.
I’m pretty sure I picked every Big XII team to win their first round games. I highly doubt any conference with at least 7 teams has went undefeated in the first round.
That would be an accomplishment for sure.
Check that. I picked Yale over Baylor. No idea why. I’m a Harvard fan.
ditto

Was I the only one during the Casey Anthony trial that thought she was hot?
I did too. Psychotic episodes notwithstanding, i could let her take advantage of me.
The crazy ones are the best … if you survive.
Well,you could keep her medicated DOC.
True i mean I am a doctor.
What about Amanda Knox
innocent!
I agree
Homicidal tendencies kinda turn me off.
She might be killer in the sack! 😉
Bazinga^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Nailed it
That’s what she said!
She may be a killer on the sac also! Lorena Bobbitt anyone? Jus sayin I’ll take a hard pass.
I don’t want her anywhere near my sack.
Thats what I’m saying
Dave nails it everytime!
Shhh. My wife might read this board on occasion 🙂
Your wife wants to do Casey Anthony!? LOL
Not for Casey but Jodi was a killer
——–
that knife, anyone catch the trial of this charmer…….
Do tell!
Jodi was just crazy she did it.
Now this killer chick is something else.
——–blue eyed butcher
Sara Paxton
Real blue eyed butcher is susan wright
Stabed husband alot.——–
She is hot too
Casey was hanging with OJ
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thought you would like that.
so, it was you on the jury
It was she is too hot to do that.
I just hope OUr guys come in at Dec/Jan form not Feb form.
I think the 8-day layoff will pay huge dividends.
I think so also. They looked just…tired at a few of their losses. Best team we’ve had at OU since Blake, some of the depth is coming around. I hope they dive deep into the bracket (Cosell voice, “all…the….way”)
Plenty of talent on the bench. Still confused as to why Lon rarely utilized it. Oh well, 6-game season starts tomorrow.
Contributors will be the key. The 4 starters not named Buddy, will have to come up big. I anticipate teams “trying” to use the WVU model of beating OU (face guarding Buddy), and switching off on the other guys, the other dudes have got to play big.
I really think Isaiah and Jordan have been shooting on dead legs. It really affects your shot. I know they have downplayed it, but those guys played a TON of minutes this season. I just hope they have allowed themselves to rest instead of wearing themselves out in the practice gym.
Well the 8 day rest certainly won’t hurt!
Plenty of good seats available for the Tech game. Yikes.
Tech wasn’t selling seats at Tech this year.
Virginia fans must have bought all the tickets. Gonna show up after lunch.
I have to watch the Duke game. I can’t stand Reggie Miller’s voice.
Got Duke on the TV, and Tech on my computer. Tech is doing pretty well, but UNC is nailing their threes, giving Duke a run for their money.
Tech on Fire!

Who is that?
Isaiah Thomas
6’5″ 230 lbs DE
Tulsa Memorial
What do you think of his pinned tweet tho?
I think it’s disgusting.
tre brown had ole miss offer pinned on his until he committed to ou. i think hes bout to be a boom
This is accurate. Maybe it’s his latest offer or something. Who knows?
I believe that would be correct, sir.
hes got too much ou stuff going on not to be a boom
Millhof, Brewer win. Jeffries loses by one point in 1st round of NCAA Wrestling Championships. Clark Glass on deck.
Glass wins. Matt Reed now up.
Reed live on ESPNU right now.
HUGE upset for Matt Reed.
Feel good story about the folks in Flint, Mi.

Dustin, did you used to wrestle? I’ve noticed you keep up with it. I wrestled in HS for Poteau.
I did not. My dad and little brother were big into wrestling. He taught me a lot, trying to get me to wrestle but I was more into basketball. I do enjoy it on the collegiate and Olympic levels.

OUCH!!
LOL!
OH ART
TTU lost, ISU winning, Baylor blew a big lead still in 1st half with Yale up by a few, and most of the state showed up at the Chesapeake arena for OU’s practice.
So anyone see what Lily the AT&T chick really looks like?
——-what!
WOW IS RIGHT
Baylor’s gonna get beat!
They look dreadful at the moment. Let’s see if they can mount a comeback.
For my bracket’s sake, I hope not.
They are sleep walking, looking….lazy.
Poor outside shooting, missed layups. Out of sync, and lost on defense.
Not drawing any fouls in the paint either.
I would say worse than that.
KU appears to be having a Thursday afternoon casual practice. They could probably win this one with their bench in the 2nd half.
Lattin injured at practice…
… but it’s just a flesh wound 😉
Bad?
gash above eye
That dude needs a mask, he got smacked during the ISU game, it looked like he rejected Ms. Rousey after the game. So, stitches and “game on”?
I suppose- Spangler collided with him
There’s not much need for him tomorrow. Bakersfield is a, all about defense team, not much offense. They could sit him tomorrow and let Buford get his 1st start. Buford is a much better scorer, Lattin is the much better defender.

Brains beat thugs.
Baylor.. making a push?
Too little, to late, I think.
My internet must be behind… ugh sometimes i cant stand that I choose to not have cable tv…
There’s still a chance. Behind by 5 with 1:36 left.
uh oh still within reach… bogus foul
Two in a row . . .
Baylor.. making a push?
Can’t believe how many layups and shots around the rim Baylor is missing.
No kidding. Them and TTU both choked away big leads.
Ok yall have a good day———
LATER BOOMERS One of LILY AT&T to go.
I mean… I don’t really see the resemblance.
I mean… I don’t really see the resemblance.
LATER BOOMERS One of LILY AT&T to go.
Baylor’s got more fight on the sideline than the court with Prince and Gathers getting into it.
The NCAA really needs to eliminate teams going to the bench during an officials’ timeout. Just gives teams extra timeouts. Totally defeats the purpose.
You can’t stop them. That doesn’t seem right either. That’s like saying football teams shouldn’t be allowed on the sideline while an injured player is being tended to.
It is completely different than injury timeouts.
On the one hand, that’s an embarrassing loss for the Big 12. On the other, I enoy seeing Baylor lose.
Same. Glad I don’t have to watch those highlighter jerseys anymore.
LOL @ Scott Drew. Suck it, asshat!!
Far from the last time I’ll say this, but effing Baylor…
The guy tried to be a hero with a behind the back dribble instead of making a pass.
To be fair, he also slipped. Tough luck.
Only three perfect brackets left.
Who that be sir?
Only one now. Jacob Jones.
Two of three Big 12ers fall already.
Duke won a close one.
UPDATE (5:20 PM) — Sauerkraut is to the Reuben what olives are to the Muffaletta. Carry on.
Neither have the balance, and the synergy of the Black & White cookie.
Oh? You talking Oreos, Oscar? Whoopie pie? Or something even more dee-lish?
Pretty sure I saw that on a Bernie Sanders bumper sticker.
LOL! And it ended with #FreeSandwichesForEveryone
Is there any body out there? Just nod if you can hear me.
nod. 🙂
Evening,Ray been gone since 1 pm. Need an update,what ya got?
Just got here, been busy getting equipment serviced and such…Spring is coming, after this cool weekend anyway. lol.
What kind of equipment?
Mowers, tractor, spray rigs, etc. Things are about to get busy in the pasture, then I have to keep the riding arena and pens worked up so my wife will be happy. 🙂
So I’m guessing you run a farm somewhere perhaps?
Mess with horses and hay North of Tulsa when I’m not working the day job and we have a place in Jenks to experience a little city life.
City life in Jenks? When did this happen?
If I can see and hear other vehicles, I consider that city enough for my taste. 🙂
Sorry born and raised on SouthSide. Believe you me if I get the chance I would adapt to 2 cars every hour!! HaHa
City life in Jenks? When did this happen?
Please don’t tell us she requires you to stay in the pens.
It’s not required but I will volunteer when she’s unhappy. 🙂
The truck works for me, I have high speed internet and Directv, what more can a guy want, (when she’s not happy).
My beer refrigerator and TV service in the barn is a great set-up but we actually get along so well, we both end up there anyway. lol.
That’s cool, my wife and I often both wind up in the truck with the 6 lb. killer poodle. We just missed each other today, I’m in Waco and she’s piloting a super load to Cali.
Sounds like she got the better gig, Waco…….just sayin.
You are right, she did get the better gig and she has the dog this trip, go figure!
Is the beer fridge fully stocked?
If it wasn’t, wouldn’t it just be a fridge? 🙂
I’ve been burned before. I’m jaded.
I’ve had friends show up on a Sunday handing me cartons of beer, leaving me confused, then tell me how they had ran out and borrowed from my barn. People are crazy. 🙂
Can you see me nodding?
Not from here. Evening,Rick
Hey bud!
Been a crazy day for me how are you doing ?
Doing well, will come home next week for about a week, then back to it. How about you? How’s school?
I just passed CPM 4. Now I’m heading on the algebra one and I’ll actually start getting credit for classes now only 58 credit hours to go. When you’re 40 58credit hours is not much time 2 1/2 years.
I wouldn’t know anymore. I haven’t been in school since 1980. I did used to teach Algebra a long time ago.
Well if I need help I know who to come and ask. Ha ha.
My understanding from my grandaughters is that nothing I used to know is of any value now (according to their teachers).
Yes in common core. But they don’t use common core in college thankfully for me but I did have to go through it when getting my GED. These kids nowadays don’t stand a chance sir I hate to say that but this is truth
That’s the thing they called it, “common core”. They asked me if I was going to learn it. I told them, in simplistic terms algebra was the skill and a set of rules for solving for an unknown. I had no desire to learn “a better way”.
Craziest thing you have ever seen my friend!!! Stay far, far away!!!
Are you the same voice that tells me to wear my wife’s pantyhose and to tuck my ding-ding between my thighs?
??? You talking to me?
That’s what I’m asking you.
I never touched her exclamation exclamation !!!!
LOL!!!!
Mr. Robertson how are you doing?
I’m well, man. Doing my thang (with and without my wife’s undergoods). How ’bout choo?
Well I woke up alive. So I guess I’m doing pretty good.
And because you woke up alive, we too are doing pretty good. 🙂
Robberson you are the man. I appreciate that very much sir.
Damn Autocorrect. Robertson.
Like I said, man, I totally recycled your moves: “It’s a fine day to be a Sooner.”
You mean? Just like A.D, all day every day
You got it!
Nodding for the pantyhose reference.
Edit: “Nodding [vigorously]…”
I’m still trying to wash that vision outa my head!
There are only three things Ajax can’t treat, Rick: The Herp, Joy Behar, and the ol’ Dangle Duck.
You paint pictures only a genius could conjure. (yes, I’m still laughing)
Bah. If only. In the fourth grade I walked into the locker room with a pair of cleats and a fart joke. The rest, as they say, is history.
Well, there you go. Fart jokes never get old, they’re always good for a laugh and everyone no matter how starchy, has personally experienced one. Every person on the average farts 14 times per day. So, farts, locker rooms, pantyhose, what else you got (did this for Dustin) to entertain us with this evening?
You just know that once upon a time there was a caveman walking up to the huddle of other cavemen. He can’t communicate with the other guys. Can’t even trust the other guys. But I’d be danged if he didn’t honk his hole and get them all to share a laugh.
Met a few friends that exact way. 🙂
Primordial, man. 🙂
Do you do it just for kicks or does it serve a comedic purpose?
Yes. 🙂

Actually reminds of the scene from Silence of the Lambs, but only if you’re dancing and are a serial killer.
“It puts the lotion on its skin.”
Ahhh…the classic Buffalo Bill! It’s funny because there is a (reportedly) guy around the same area i live, which many people allege strike a resemblance, some how, to me, that is locally famous for performing the BB in public places. Legend ’round these parts here say that the guy even performed the BB in the middle of Edna’s for a Bachelorette party. From the sounds of it, that guy really knows how to party…or at least, used to.
LOL! I, uh. I’m not sure what to say to that, Drew. I’m disturbed that that dude is out there. 🙂
LOL!!!! Jordan’s absence is being felt innit?
Is there anyone home?
There’s distant smoke out on the horizon.
Dead. Needs a burying.
Bevo?
Hate Baylor with a passion only second to texsa. But I gotta say Prince’s response to that punk reporter was awesome.
Missed it. What happened?
There was a little more before but reporter was complete prick in his approach, like he was trying to attack kids who just got knocked out the tourney and stir up something.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=P6A2ZgKV6n0
Dude. That. Was. AWESOME!
Prince must be all right to have the stones to smack him with that. Total respect from me.
You would think he has been coached up by Stoops.
I think Stoops would say, “Taurean, you mind if I take some notes?”
I would say that was pretty mature for a college kid. If I just got knocked out of the tourney and some a hole wanted to act like that to me, I would’ve been in jail in a cell adjacent to Metz.
Agree. It was perfect. He held his composure completely. And yet knocked the reporter’s d**k in the dirt, too.
That was awesome even from a Baylor player.
Up date added! Its 7:34 and texsa still suckssssssssss!
No argument here metz.
Uh-oh. Metz in the house. It’s ’bout get wald up in hyah.
Lmao naw im calm,well kinda1

Only the ones that I had time to edit myself out of. 🙂
Oh no you didn’t. Cmon man!
That’s right shes been spending time at rays also.
I give up. I’ll share with TFB members only. However, there is an initiation fee. I can email you the PayPal account. Only 1,000 bucks and worth every penny

The hvy from Ohio State has some amazing skills and giving up as much as 40-45 lbs. They said he weighed in at 226. Youngest USA world champion ever.
Plus, he’s only wrestled six times before the NCAAs. He’d been training for the Olympics.
I hope he gets to the finals. It should be a good one.
Dam not one up vote on my girl that is gunna keep jp away during 3 somes , sad.
Keep me away? You’ll be in ur imaginary 3some and turn around and wonder what happened to JP and the girl with the knife.
We’ll just say she put the knife down.
Millhof, Brewer and Reed won both matches today. Glass and Larson are now in the consolation brackets. Jeffries wrestles in the consolation first round in about 20 minutes.

Much better than I expected. A couple of our boys scored big upsets. I was really impressed.
???
That’s what we’ve been missing today.
TFB are all Irish or what? where’s info for the 17th?
Hopefully holding onto it for a super-post tomorrow.
Well, last game over. My bracket is so busted it’s in sad little pieces. I stink at making picks. At least OU is still in the dance. Saw where big dude from CSUB talked a little trash on us today. Buddy took offense. LOL.
Boomer Good Morning how about a BOOM today.

Metz, that reminds me of my ex and I in reverse.
LOL,Rick.
She had a mean right hook, and was short, so you had to really watch where she was swinging!
Been there,hence X.
I think you and I both did much better 2nd time around.
Lessons learned for sure!
My ex turned creepy.
Good Friday morning all you Brainiacs. ” It is a great day to be a SOONER” If you are downtown today, throw some deuces to your fellow Brainiac. I’ll be the one with the big OU on my chest.

Mike you have done a tremendous job feeding us while the Admin is on break. Thank you much sir!!!
You’re very welcome my friend!
Great mornin to ya!!!
Thank you——-
I sure wish she would come home with me to watch the tournament tonight.
She was looking at me.
She was looking at me ———–
She can come to my house also.
Or this one——-
Yes, yes, yes.
She has just the right composure.
Yes she doe’s.
———–
WOW WOW———–
Thank you
Thank you Sir.
Thanks again Mike! Quick question out or curiosity, for those of us who read all the links before clicking on one, which one did you pick?
Rick….I guess i’m a little slow today. What do you mean, “which one did you pick”?
I would guess some people start at the top clicking 1 thru 10 etc. Some of us would look at all the links and pick the one that most interested us or jumped out to get us, for those people I was curious which one it was. (I chose the Bradford getting married, and I have absolutely no idea why, other than I have always liked and pulled for Sammy) Just a curious question. Great list again, thanks.
Ok my bad. Well I kinda speed read the stories as i find them in the order they’re posted. I found I was most interested in the Sam Bradford story as well.
#2. Then #8.
I liked #2 also. Jess looks alot better, having lost a little weight, she always had a great personality on camera, now she’s kinda got that sports news healthy girl look going.
Great job. Thank you, Mike Reed.

TGIF!! They say picture worth 1000 words so let me sum up my ncaa bracket for you folks:
Crash and burn baby!!!!
I think it’s burn and then crash.
That is true. But hey the water below will put out the fire. 😉
Only hurts when you stop.
EFFING BAYLOR
And Taco Tech. Can’t believe I picked either one. (Hangs head).
I actually got that one right.
I can. They both should have won their games, they just choked away large leads.
You’re right. Losers.
Well, we’re right there with them for expecting better of them. Them and Seton Hall smh . . .
Seton Hall played like garbage…
other than that…
my bracket was okay
————
I’m just going to start blaming all my life’s problems on Baylor, because let’s face it, they are the root of all evil. Effing Baylor.
Baylor reminds me of this———–
Sad Baylor :*(
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVuZ2abxF3s
Still blows my mind
Like Herbie says, “bush league”. They still claim he was actually injured.
Butt hurt.
I remember that typical ART.
I know you were wondering….how does Yale out rebound Baylor?

Great, great article. Thanks for posting….I had to send it to some folks in the office.
Downtown OKC is hopping.
BUDDY HIELD TODAY, probably. ERR, I mean, DEFINITELY.

bradford found himself a pretty ‘hog’……..hope it works out
as the draft gets closer, it sounds like Shepard and Sanchez both have outside shots at making it into the first round. Also sounds like Tapper could maybe go in the 2nd, I think Striker could go undrafted though.

Saw that a while back ago Keith Jackson’s son visited Bama. Crazy, how time flies. I remember as a kid watching these guy’s. Andre Rison, Keith Jackson, Keshawn Johnson, Bobby Joe Evan’s boys…ect. It’s always cool to see kids work in their fathers footsteps.

The beer can top logo looks hideous.
The beer can top logo looks hideous.
waiting on another open post this week is like…….
Millhof loses his quarterfinal match. Brewer advances to semifinals. Reed up shortly in the 174 lbs. qtrs.
Derringer looking good so far.
He’s the champ.

Davion Jeffries with a MD. All six Sooner wrestlers still alive.
Are you watching the Quarters ?
Trying to. I have a 6 year old on spring break. lol
I hear you. I had my 7 yr old grandson and 9 yr old granddaughter last week-end.
Mine is going to his grandparents’ in a couple hours.
hello
Will Narramore leading the bracket challenge. Hit 15/16 yesterday. Not too bad.
Baylor was the team I was curious about… Disappointed I thought they would make the most of their opportunity but then again it’s expected with a school of their prestige….
I picked Yale.
I miss The Football Brainiacs!
Welcome to the machine.
Nice pink floyd reference.
Rather addictive huh.
Been a while. Where you been hiding?
Dark Side of the Moon.
Another Pink Floyd reference. I done mine last night. Coincidence I think not.
By the way, which one’s Pink?
Nice one.
I’m trying to work this one in, but coming up empty. “Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict”
That was a crazy album right there!
And that song. I’ll never forget that one.
With ya there.
I went to a Zappa concert in Tulsa (Old Lady at Brady) back in the early 80’s. His band was full of incredibly talented musicians who’s precision and abilities I had never witnessed before in a rock band. They were orchestrated in the truest sense of the word.
Nice, never got to see frank.
Suzy, Suzy Creamcheese, Dancin’ Fool two of my favorites.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSdkPMc7aEo
Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That song needs more cowbell tho.
Indeed.
I might be moving to montana soon.
Don’t forget the Zircon encrusted tweezers.
Lmao.
Might take Dynamo Hum with you for entertainment.
OMG great song!
You know what song shep is singing.
Money!!!!!!!
Going to be a dental floss tycoon?
Why yes, and ride my pygmy pony.
Did you say ride a pony?——-
Id be that pony!
I heard the pony only charged her a quarter lol.
I have a sack full of quarters
My addiction.
If I were going with fuzzy animal characters, I’d probably just opt for “Rocky Raccoon”.
Or i am the walrus.
Or that .. lol.
I’m going to have a cigar on that one.
I had been a stay-at-home dad for the last 4 years, since my then 3 years old son was diagnosed with autism. I was very busy but had control of my time. In October, we decided that our son has progressed far enough that I could go back to work.
The new job has 12 hour days and requires deep immersion. I only work 7 days out of every 2 weeks, but between the rigorous work days and playing catchup with my son on days off, I have been limit to lurking the last 4 months. I’m here every day reading the open post and as many of the comments as I can get to, but active participation had been, and likely will continue to be limited for the foreseeable future.
It is nice to know someone noticed my absence. BOOMER!
Reed goes down in the quarters. Brewer now the only Sooner alive on the Championship side.
Clark Glass wins.
Major milestone in my life today. 50th anniversary! They said it wouldn’t last because we were just teenagers. What do “they” know.
Congratulations man! See my latest post regarding something similar!
That’s awesome. congrats.
Happy Anniversary! Quite an accomplishment and commitment by two people to have life together. Blessings!
Congrats.
Congrat’s
“THEY” don’t know nuthin!!” Congratulations.
Thank you all. I’ll just say she is the best woman I’ve ever known!
Getting married tomorrow Brainiacs! Pretty pumped. And by the way, my groom’s cake is going to be the OU stadium… it’s going to be great
Congrats and best of luck.
Hope the day goes great.
Congrats!
My condolences.
Bazingaaaaaa^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

https://media1.giphy.com/media/3o6gbbFBAvwL2oIPeM/200.gif

I remember the first morning my new wife and I spend after our first night of our honeymoon. The sun broke through the room’s curtains and my sweetie looked at me and said, “ok, you can get off of me now”
Congratulations! Best of Sooner luck to you two!

Just remember to tell her
https://media1.giphy.com/media/oWZeGFxgG7mXS/200.gif
Congratulations 76
Congrats 76! Is your cake under construction?
Yessir! It’ll be the lower level of the stadium (high rises were too complicated for the bakery), the scoreboard, and lights. I constructed some LED’s that will actually turn on… it’ll be great
Dont dance with her like this ok!————–
I think Metz is onto something here, 76.
You should at least spin her 3 times before the slap!
That’s from that Patrick Swayze movie ain’t it?
Oh quit metzing around… I’m a great dancer
LOL!!!!!!!
Congrats! Who said verbal commitments are non-binding?
good luck……..nothing better than a loving marriage……….

Travis Ford is officially gone. Don’t really care but putting it out here.

Ok so no bodys here?
Nope
Any day Texas loses is a good day.

Thanks for this, Dustin, and for wrestling updates.
Cody had a mental lapse yesterday and got pinned in 21 seconds. It was silly.
Only 20 more days till Spring Game! Need some football and a Boom would be great.

I’m sure pumped about Robison coming in. If we can avoid Baker getting hurt this year, we are potentially gonna be golden at QB for a long time.
There you go spewing facts again, Slim!
Seriously though, future is seemingly VERY bright ?

Thinking Browning wants to join the Squad and wear the Crimson???
Sure hope so. Everything is pointing toward Browning being in line for the Butkus Award next year. Would be quite the group having Browning and Draper to go w/ Kelly from last year.
For those that want to read about it here you go…

Good read. Thanks. I take it ‘ill’ is good, like ‘sick’ or ‘filthy’. Anyway…OU getting some top quality athletes in this #SoonerSquad17. The ‘Killer dBs’ Cannot wait to see Barnes on the field. Guy is going to be an absolute predator. Size, speed and work ethic all there.
Join the good guys, Baron. Who’s 183?
My guess is Marvin Wilson.
That is not Marvin Wilson.
My guess was wrong.
IS that Walker the class of 18 OL commit????
No.
Darn, picked a Virginia upset right here.
I should’ve picked a Kentucky upset. Zags kicking Utes now. smh
I did call the Utes losing. Their schedule didn’t impress me at all. No way they deserved a 3 seed imo.
