College Basketball Crown

I read something that said OU women are top 5 in sec NIL. There is a woman from Iowa who bank rolls Coach B. Not too many coaches bring their own BMDs (BYOBMD$)! It is really impressive and OU better not let Jennie B leave.

It would take probably another $5-10 million for OU men to get to top 5. Don’t see that happening with how hungry the football program is.

The money for Chavez didn't come from the woman Jennie knew previously.

What that lady gave OU is public record. It was nice, but it was given to the program, and was not given as a means to getting Chavez. And it was one time. That lady isn't out giving Jennie cash monthly to fund the program.

If you listened to it then you are blatantly making stuff up due to your dislike for him. Quite literally nothing about his press conference matches what you are saying. That's fine you're entitled to your opinion even though it's wrong.

I'm not making anything up. The fake quote I included was clearly fake.

My take away from watching it isn't though. I don't like the man. I don't like the way he talks. I don't like the things he says. I don't like the things he doesn't say. We're talking about a guy with over 20 years of HC experience that is well under .500 in conference play. Not one GOOD coach in the history of the game has that stat, yet after 20+ years some of you want to defend him until the end. He needs to be a man and take responsibility for the resume he has put together, both at OU and before. He needs to look inward for what needs to change, not constantly looking for handouts to mask his inability to coach.

The day that man leaves OU will be one of the happier OU sports days of my life. That is how little I think of PoMo as a coach.

That money came from Harold Hamm bet you.

Couple of points.

Nobody just randomly gave that money to Jennie for now reason. She's earned it with her track record and ability to communicate a plan for the program to the people that have money. She's built relationships. Moser has been doing this a lot longer, and has not.

And while yes, Chavez is the equivalent to AJ or Boozer as a recruit, they are not the same as players. Those guys are some of the best players in the country. Chavez has that potential, but she was not a top 5, top 10, or probably even top 25 player in the country this year. So as far as getting results with what they have as players currently, I'd still say Jennie is lapping anything Moser is doing. Moser has the more complete roster, or at least, a better 1-8, comparatively.

On point 2.

You’re missing it. Chavez was rated as a top 5 player before college in her class. Same as the guys I mentioned.

We’d have a different outcome if we signed those guys.
Once again $7mil male player vs $700k women’s player.

That was the point.

My hot take, that no one will probably agree with me about, is that Beers actually kind of held the women back.

She was always in foul trouble, and couldn't get up and down the floor fast enough for the kind of offense Jenni likes to run. She just wasn't athletic enough for what the women's game has become.

And I know she was an All-American, so I'm not here to really argue it. I just think her being here probably stopped Jenni from being able to get a big time, athletic big. And that is needed in the women's game right now to compete with the top 4 or 5 teams (along with other missing pieces, but I think that was the biggest missing piece). I also don't know what the portal looks like for the women, so I'm not sure how many athletic bigs hit the portal. I'm sure it's not much.

But I always kind of felt like that's really what they were missing, and could never get it because that position was taken (again, by an All-American).

It's almost like how I felt Tanner Groves held Moser back his first few years. He was supposed to be really good (based off on one tournament, hindsight is 20/20), and he didn't live up to it. But him being here no doubt cost them a lot of chances (along with NIL) at bigs that could have really helped early in Moser's tenure.

Again, I'm not really trying to argue it. Because it sounds stupid since she is considered one of the best in the women's college game, and I'm probably wrong, but it's just my opinion.
