I saw on twitter that OU has lost its entire offensive line to the portal. If true, that is some straight bullshite and that’s really bad for the game as a whole.

Meh. It’s not an issue since they can replace them just as quickly.

The transfer portal is musical chairs... but instead of chairs, it's bank accounts / teams.

Continuity will get a kick in the teeth though.

You don’t find yourself becoming a fan of guys who portal in for a year finish their masters degree in sports hospitality and then portal out for one last go around at a third and final school?

If they did indeed lose their entire offensive line to the portal, which they didn't, then it says more about OU's O-line coach than it does NIL.

OU will either figure out how to pay their players or they will go down in flames.

the portal and NIL are absolute catastrophes for the sport and anyone with a brain could see it coming. But as long as money is being made hand over fist by those in charge nothing is going to change.

This is not true. Most of the starters either ran out of eligibility or declared for the NFL draft. We did lose Cayden Green to the portal and that was a big loss. We were always going to have inexperienced bodies on the line next year though.

While not great news for y’all it’s a far better picture than the Twitter link indicates.

We didn't lose our entire Oline to the portal, dipshit.

Cayden Green got tampered with Bear Alexander style by his money grubbing broke-arse dad looking out for himself.

Our Center and both OTs are headed to the NFL.

They got a couple guys graduating and the others transferred. Gonna be a rough introduction into the SEC for them.

Yes.

But it’s HARD.

Remember how pissed off so many people were at the NFL for their BLM shite? Yeah, THAT lasted.

I mean, what are you gonna *do* on Sunday, go to church? What’s going to fill up your intellectual horizon? Literature, philosophy, fricking BOOKS? Talking to your kids or some shite?

This is how red dirt retards treat people they feel have slighted them. The OP is pro-OU. Can you seriously not see that? Makes one wonder who the real dipshit is here.

I'm the one you should be aiming at. I'm the one that's laughing at the paperclips getting clipped. Is NIL/portal good for the game? No. Will I hydrate from OU's tears? Yes.

Cayden Green and his broke-arse dad gave us a number they were looking for and his demand he asked for was met by our NIL which would've made him one of the highest paid OL in the country. His dad shut down his twitter and won't answer his phone and he's leaving anyway.
He most likely already had a deal with somebody else and cash in hand, and wasn't expecting OU to match, which we did. He probably already had a new car in his driveway, courtesy of the tampering team.
