I know this is probably not popular but I believe he gets us back on track as early as next season.....
 
Hold. The season is not over. There's still more work to be done.

THIS. I've been a Jeff Capel supporter to this point, but you have to let the season play out. We still may only win a couple of more games, but as long as we're COMPETITIVE (meaning not playing like we did against aTm), I'll go with BUY.
 
Lex, can you post Capel up? If you can, my answer is, sell. If not, I'm for holding on to him for awhile. ;)
 
Says who? Today the play by play announcer stated that at least 95 other teams in college bball would love to have coach.

VCU, Jackson State, Texas Southern, Lousiana-Monroe, Sacramento State. Wyoming, Eastern Washington, Texas-Pan American, Cal-Poly, Maryland-Eastern Shore, Maine, Eastern Michigan, North Carolina Central....need I keep going?
 
Only two wins away from last year's Big 12 win total. He'll be back next year.
 
Yea... aren't there over 300 D1 basketball teams? I'd hope at least 1/3 wanted my coach.

That said, I didn't see your game today, but I feel myself trending toward Capel deserving one more year. He created a mess after last season (his own fault), but he might be beginning to clean it up. Your starters played 189 of 200 possible minutes today, so if you can add a couple of pieces next year he may be able to right the thing. With Goff, Osby and a recruit or two, that's a doable task. You still won't likely be great, but he'll have you back to where you can at least start building for real again.

Of course, all that goes out the window if you start losing games by 20+ points again.
 
One thing we should be able to agree upon is that if you were deciding based on his job today you would have to say BUY.

yes
 
It's too early to tell. If we lose every game the rest of the season by an average of 20+ I think most here would say sell. If we win 3 or 4 more games I think it's buy. If we win 2 more games it's probably just enough to keep him one more year. But it's pretty NCAA Tourney or bust next year. If we don't make the NCAA Tournament next year Jeff Capel will no longer be the coach at OU. Unless we have a ton of injuries.
 
Please!!Let's not get to giddy!!It was a good win,a needed win,but not a great win!!Keep your composure sunshiners!!!!Go Sooners!!!!!!!!!

Why is this not a great win? Colorado has went on the road and won at a very hostile place in the big 12. It's just no matter how much this team improve and win games it not enough for alot of you.

As long as the team continues playing hard like they did today.
