Has anyone heard anything to validate this TMG rumor?

[cfin5256]

I just had a very reliable source inform me that he has heard TMG indeed left. No reasons as to why but this source is someone I trust 100% so unfortuately I believe the rumor looks to be true.

That sucks, though not unexpected after all the smoke; knew there had to be a fire behind it.

Coach get on the recruiting trail. Thanks for the update SQ, anything on Tiny ? (I'm gonna assume hes gone also)

I only want kids who want to be here.

If TMG is gone he is stupid IMO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TMG is stupid. Last year before he came here(this comes from a very good source close to the basketball program), he called Capel and said that one of his friends or teammate(can't remember which one) was getting paid by a college I won't name...and he thought he deserved to get paid. Capel told him that if he didn't pay Blake, he definatly wasn't going to pay him. TMG called him back after a few days and said that if Blake didn't get paid I guess I shouldn't get paid either.

So since TMG is gone...all of this about TMG is not suprising to me at all.

I don't think OU has to worry about that with TMG. If he's already left then he's not finishing out this semester and that will put his grades in the trash.

I also don't think he is the kind of kid who is going to transfer and sit out a year going to school and not getting to play. He wants to get paid to play as fast as possible from what I understand.

Transferring pushes that back at least two more years, where as he can play in the NBDL right now and get paid like 40k a year. Or go overseas and get more than that.

Just my .02 cents.

I was talking about Taylor and Clark. I don't think we should let them out of their letters if they want to go elsewhere.

Ah, I see. My bad.

As wrong as that sounds I have to agree. We can't afford another wave of defections from recruits like what happened to Capel in his first year. Can't afford it one bit!!!!!

if all three are gone, I'm guessing a few more people might jump on Mr. B's bounty

Can I do like vegas does and take it off the boards...locked into buying you dinner and paying BOB $100.00. Can live with hanging out with you, and can live with paying BOB!

If true, I don't know if they even make bigger red flags than that.

hence my questioning whether Capel will survive this

I agree. I think things look bleak but I like Jeff and hope he does survive this mess.

I'll let you out of it. Like I said, I don't really want to bet against my team, but you made me "put my money where my mouth is" and I stepped up.

 

[soonerfud]

If he doesn't quit playin that really aweful zone he had them in alot of the time this year, he's not gonna win no matter who comes back. That thing was the worst DI defense I think I've ever seen. Our man wasn't good, but hell, that was brutal.

I haven't heard anything solid on Tiny, just what has been floating around. My gut says I think he will be back unless something comes from this TMZ stuff and he gets kicked off the team.
