re: Lincoln Riley just fricked OU big time.

I don’t disagree at all. If this hire gets botched, it’s going to take many, many years for OU to recover. Oklahoma MUST find somebody that knows SEC ball and isn’t afraid of the competition. In the end, I think this will help OU in the long run. Riley’s teams don’t play the way you have to play week in and week out in this conference. We will see who gets hired and what culture can be established. But make no mistake, they must get this right

I think all OU fans would agree with this. This is terrible timing as we are about to move to the SEC. Losing all of the recruits (and who knows how many active players) is going to be very tough. God, I hate the transfer portal as I believe most CFB fans do.

In the long run we will be fine as we will always pull our share out of Texas and especially the DFW area. The SEC effect has hurt us the last 10 years and that will dissipate.

In the short and medium run, things are pretty perilous.
