Fire Porter Moser

[allday92]

I wonder if we play the NIT or Crown if we don't make it since we are keeping Porter? Seems like the team likes playing with each other so they may choose to play one or the other.

If the plan is to keep the X and Reid next year, they should. It would be good for Forsythe, Atak, and Rogers to get the playing time and practices.

Would be a real shame if we snuck into the tourney and some of y'all had to watch us win a couple more games!

With Moser staying, I doubt there is a single poster on here that doesn't want us to make the Dance.

If that is who we're playing, it'll be one game and out.

I doubt all of those guys return, especially from that last group of three.

No NIT. No reason for it.

Bullcrap… I’d LOVE to be in and win a few games… I ALSO would love to go a different direction with moser. I can want both.

Again, we’ll see which is more important to recruits. … besides $$$…. The 9 game losing streak or the end.

ok. 1 month. AD of one of the most historic Athletic programs in History making uninformed decisions.

Great conversation.

Misinformed decisions maybe. You prolly have never had to make big decisions with only limited time before have you?

Not big decisions like d1 bball coach. But on my hs level. Absolutely

Oh there is definitely at least one

I had been posting it since December. lol. Nice try, though!

Sure you did since Denny was not hired until late January but nice try though!

I don't know that part, but I do know that the buyout didn't change just because the AD change happened. OU does not like paying buyouts, never has. Yet Joe C kept giving large ones to coaches. If OU had gone 6-7 this past year, BV would have been owed over $30 million if he had been fired.

I am sure Denny had discussions about it, but at the end of the day, buyout was still in place.

you didn't know anything in december because you couldn't have known anything at that time because denny hadn't been hired.
pretty simple.

Can we please stop flaming people for accurate predictions?

We've literally paid a buyout any time we've fired a coach. We've fired a lot of coaches.

I'll go one step further, how many OU coaches have left that weren't fired or didn't retire? That would mean either their contract ran out or they left for a better/different job. Not many. They'll pay buyouts to get rid of coaches they don't want. They've done it Joe's entire tenure. How many coaches overstayed their welcome that weren't people that could name their exit date (ie, Bob Stoops, Sherri Coale, etc)?

Like my prediction when Moser was hired that he'd fail because his resume was basically a giant failure?

Cool.

I’m with you allday, take an nit bid. Play all underclassmen as long as they can go. Normally don’t care about the nit but that would be a reason to go.

$5 tickets throughout the arena, $2 beer and popcorn.

So you are going to convince guys like Pack and Davis to play, when they both probably have NBA or overseas prospects, not play a lot, but be with the team, and risk injury?

Not going to happen.

Yes, but we've negotiated for lower numbers. Or kept them around an extra year to pay less.

The guy people are quoting is 100% full of ****. He had a 50/50 shot and guessed right.

Most of those mocking him take 50/50 guesses and are typically wrong. Such as...saying Moser would definitely be fired.

 

[Eielson]

Like I said previously, I don't typically have sources within the program. But the very few times I have and brought it here, I got flamed about it. After it happened, the responses were similar.

We are gonna have to up Forsythe pay. He’s only making $250k and a couple schools are calling
