Doesn't come from the same pool of money.

I've said it before, and others are saying it as well, improving the top of the schedule is nice, but the real improvement should have been driven by upgrading the bottom teams. Just less teams in the 300's, and get those up to the 200-250 range. Might not seem like much, but it makes a big...

I'm sure he'll try. People always underestimate how hard it is to actually play two sports in college. Very few have done it successfully in the last 10-15 years. It's been said baseball is the sport he likes the most. We'll just have to see how that plays out. Basketball season starts...

There is no reason to expand it other than more money. They just keep diluting the field. Same if they keep expanding college football.

That is what OU always does. I can't imagine the home schedule is anything special. If it is, we're going to have a really tough schedule.

Holst looks like Shaggy from Scooby-Doo in the face.

Hey, we agree on something. I think he is pretty overrated myself. Not saying he is a bad player, but I think OU can find a similar talent with a higher ceiling and maybe less baggage.

Please stop with the hyperbole. LNC may be old. It may be ugly. You may not like the seating arrangement. But it is NOT a crumbling mess. That is a silly comment.

I just want some balance. Going from no tough road games to a bunch (some of those neutral site games for the upcoming season are really road games). Not doing anything about the biggest problem of playing teams at the very bottom instead of upgrading some of those to top 200 type teams (I'm...

It's a lot easier to identify assistant coaches in basketball that can have success, vs football coordinators. The transition is a lot easier on the bball side.

So wait, did you just say Kelvin hasn’t retired bc he doesn’t think Kellen would succeed with him? That’s ridiculous and honestly, pretty stupid. Kelvin hasn’t retired bc he still enjoys coaching, is still physically and mentally able to do the job, and gets to do it while being around his...

Complete unknown? I really don't get this line of thinking. Was Bob Stoops not a complete unknown as a HC? How about Barry Switzer? Several years ago Kelvin said that Kellen "lead" a lot of parts of the basketball program. I think he said that he ran some of the practices, and I know he...

How will having twice as many period ends and beginnings fix that?

Are you saying OU baseball spent $500k total? Because I know some of the pitchers and Carmichael got more than that. Way more than that, combined.

Continuity. I don't like having 4 "end of periods". I think it's lame. I also like the way the fouls/bonus situation is in college ball. Changing to quarters and an NBA model is going to change the way the college game is played. I'm not for that.
