Roaches

[Seymore Cox]

Lance Bedford compared OSU fans to roaches when turmoil set in. Are we roaches or are we just disappointed fans? Is it bad to be a roach at this time?

I feel like I've been just about as positive as anybody (other than Faithful Sooner who should be in the Guinness Book) but with the bad recruiting news we've gotten today it's hard to stay that way. Honestly unless he pulls a rabbit out of a hat in recruiting in the next week I think Capel needs to be fired. There's no sense in sitting around and watching another horrid season if we aren't building anything for the future. Time to cut our losses and move on.

Let's see. What kind of recruiting bonanza could we get right now. Let's play like Faithful and Jeff know something great. Who could we get? Terrence Jones?

Just disappointed fans. I bet 95 percent of the regulars will be back here next year posting regardless of how bad the team is. The "Bandwagon Haters" group won't be back if Capel is fired.

Sad & Disappointed but still a fan. Definitely won't jump ship but given how "un-fun" this past season was I am having a hard time imagining what "even worse" will look and feel like.

23, i like the Billy Clyde pic...i really liked him as a coach (bias)...

He did turn around one of the most pathetic programs in my lifetime...

Just extremely disappointed,after the Sampson experiment we thought that Capel was a fresh of breathe air,Young up-coming coach that could relate to his players,we just did"nt expect the inability to bring players together(MD"s,roll players ,JC"s,ect..)& mold them as a team.Go Sooners!!!!!!

I'll still be here, and still be a fan. I have to admit though, that coming on the heels of an Elite Eight appearance, and with three McD AA's on the roster, I didn't see this season as one that would induce nausea and vomiting in a fanbase. I stand corrected. I think what pi***s me off the most is that we can't even put this season behind us and talk about next year, because every week something new and even worse is being reported about our team.

exactly. I think the UK rap is an unfair one to him. ATM was TERRIBLE and he actually instilled a winning attitude in that whole program. IMO that is a Herculean task.

the whole Kentucky thing was a situation of 5 star players not wanting to play Gillespie's style. And Gillespie himself felt pressured to bring in these higher-tier players. Cuz Kentucky is ghey.

Yep, and we are in a truly pathetic state right now. He's the perfect fit. Joe C. needs to make the move before it's too late. This program is going nowhere with Capel at this point. He has no point guards on campus and just lost his top point guard prospect, who is one of his former players' brothers, to a school who returns their starting point guard. Pathetic. The time is now...

I have not once wavered in my support for Capel until the last month. This is absolutely pathetic. Never did I imagine that Capel could leave us in a bigger hole than he inherited...he worked his ass off to dig this hole.
