I think it’s obvious Mateer was betting on sports but as long as he wasn’t using inside info or something I don’t care and think he should play. Doubt they’ll be able to prove it regardless.

Also, Sooner fans are blaming Texas for putting this out there but I’ve seen a few Michigan fans on twitter claiming credit. Connor Stalions strikes again?

I think it is all fake……but they are alleging he bet with a friend when he was 18 back at WSU and did NOT bet on his own team…..since it was not with a a casino or sports book it seems rather benign…

The big thing here is that they have to prove there was actually gambling going on. I’m not going to say he did or he didn’t because I didn’t know who the kid was until OU started recruiting him from the portal.

TBH, though, I don’t see the NCAA being able to prove he bet on games unless they can find some accounts of his on one or more of the betting sites.

Either way, putting something as stupid as sports betting in a public Venmo comment ranks up pretty high on the dumb scale.

Many are still saying that this is fake even after Matter admitted it was real. They are really dialing in to the Boomer side of the phrase

Yet he may be the next Oklahoma quarterback to make dumb mistakes on and/or off the field mistakes. Congrats.

Baker Mayfield was arrested for public intoxication, disorderly conduct, fleeing and resisting arrest and IT WAS ON VIDEO!

He went on to win the Heisman and No.1 pick in the NFL Draft.

Just sayin, could be another great year for OU.

OU's biggest problem that they will never overcome is they are coached by Vennables.

Like being coached by Jeremy Pruitt.

Great coordinators but average head coaches.

Will they win a game they shouldn't, yes, but not enough to ever be a serious contender if they ever make the CFP during his tenure.

Oklahoma should suspend Mateer 4 games, IMO.

You are a complete dumbass. You said
quote:

for us non pot heads
implying anyone who smokes pot is a pot head. The other guy made a very reasonable response asking if you thought anyone who had ever touched a drip of alcohol was an alcoholic. Since that’s what you implied about weed. You then said you never said that (you did ) and then went on about how it’s illegal (it’s not in many states) which he never even mentioned, completely avoiding his question. But then you did respond in passing that no you don’t think anyone who drinks alcohol is an alcoholic proving his point that your logic holds no water. But then again your a boomer who probably thinks weed is a gateway drug still and killing 12 beers a night is a perfectly normal and healthy way to live life
