Greg Swaim says he has information

[seniorsooner]

I don't think #OU fans are going to be thrilled about the coaching hire Joe C. Is going to make. It's down to two, and neither are great.

Think veteran, above average, multiple stops but no big tourney runs. At least he has Midwest ties and no NCAA baggage. #Sooners

When did "they" let Swaim out?

How can Greg Swaim, who hates OU, have info no one else has?

99% of OU media is covering Spring football?

Who fits that description?

 

[seniorsooner]

I don't get why he wouldn't just tell us the names.

 

[perryj74]

Please stop using Greg Swaim as a source. He has no information or sources.

Herb Sendek
Fran Fraschilla

That's because he doesn't know anything. If you throw enough **** on the wall eventually something will stick.

 

[MsProudSooner]

And he knows that no matter who we hire, a lot of OU fans aren't going to like it.

Lon Kruger or Fran Fraschilla

I would be thrilled with Kruger, absolutely thrilled, but Stallings isn't bad.

 

[Will_Jennings]

Lon Kruger or Fran Fraschilla

These are the two names that I have heard from some different assistant coaches in college basketball, wit Kruger being the name tossed around the most.

 

[Big Old Booger]

Could be a lot worse!

Yep, could be a lot worse. Stallings has been fairly successful at Vandy.

He was 4-8 vs Bruce Pearl at Tennessee, but I would guess Vandy doesn't have the resources as all of the other SEC institutions so that is akin to him coaching at Baylor.

Completely agree, Booger. Lon Kruger would be a heck of a hire for OU. And I'll take your word on Stallings. What are your thoughts on Fran?

 

[seniorsooner]

If Swaim is talking about Kruger then he's an idiot because it is flat out wrong to say that Kruger has "no deep tourney runs". The only thing that would concern me about Kruger is that he is getting up there in age (58).

Greg Swaim is a liar. He doesn't know anything and no one with any crediblity will talk to him.
