Thanks for that depressing link. Good to see Pokes and Horns having fun at OU's expense.

is Pokerface the same person as PokeJ on this board?

 

[boksooner]

I thought it was Lady Gaga

 

[Romulus]

no PokeJ all the way, I can tell by his type of posting and violant enuendo about all things coming out of Norman. I hate that man.

 

[Sooner Quick]

They are talking about stuff that we've been talking about here for 2 weeks. Gallon transferring? No. WW going pro? Maybe but looking to be back in my opinion.

Let them talk their garbage. The horns had a huge flop this year!

The horns have enough of their own problems in basketball to worry about. Avery Bradley where are you? No pre-season tp 25 next year either. Enough about those Damien "the traitorless" Horns next year. We too have many problems to solve.

Plus Rick Barnes is a worse coach than Mack Brown. Those two do just enough to stay employed which is good for us

If Mack is doing "just enough to stay employed" I'd hate to see what he would be doing if he were really successful.

Hate to say it, but we deserve what we're getting. I'd be disappointed if our rivals didn't pile on (plus I'd feel guilty when it was their turn).

What doest that say about Jeff Capel, who is 2-7 vs Barnes? Does this mean Capel is doing just enough warrant not being employed?

Just sayin...

I think Barnes is a pretty good coach and I'd take him in a heartbeat right now. He's elevated Texas into the 2nd best program in the conference right now...a spot once reserved for us.

I hate it when message board punks wanna come to one message board and act like they're the good rivalry fan, then show their true colors on other boards.

I gained a newfound respect for you, Booger, after following your posts in the '88 thread. Now here you go, doing your best to make me lose it. If OU ever trades in a Jeff Capel for a Rick Barnes, my lifelong loyalty to the Sooners may follow Jeff out the door.

I'm certainly not advocating trading in Jeff for Barnes, just playing devils advocate.

Texas was nothing in basketball before Barnes arrived. He was a solid coach at Providence and Clemson before coming to Austin and has done well since he's been there. I would agree his program seems to have crested as he hasn't been able to get over the hump (which is pushing Kansas every year for the conference title).

Texas, with the money, facilities, and in-state talent at their disposal should be the 2nd best program in the conference. Maybe Barnes is the reason they haven't been able to be better than 2nd best some years.

This year his team did underachieve, that's for sure, but you have to admit he's a solid recruiter and a solid coach. I have no problem admitting that at least. He also seems like a solid person from everything I've read, but I don't follow him that much.

Barnes does a good job..weird to me that he has not been more successful with the talent that has come through Austin over the course of his tenure.

Sampson had no problem keeping Barnes' whorns in their place. I expect Capel will continue that legacy, though I'll readily admit he's gotten off to shaky start. I'm obviously not as impressed with Barnes as you seem to be.

I've heard Barnes is an arrogant jerk off the court.

Can't agree w/ this, as Penders did a decent job there, IMO. In his 10 years there, UT went to the Dance 8 times, averaged 20 wins, & won 3 conference titles (all SWC). They did lack consistent NCAA tournament success under him (1 EE & 1 S16), but it's not as if Barnes inherited an Edsel. I will agree that he's raised UT up a solid notch though.

Maybe it's just the fact he looks like John Grisham...

 

[OUHoosier]

Isn't Jeff 2-2 in the last 4 against UT, and a Blake injury away from 3-1? I'll take that.
