Flame away if you want to BUT the truth hurts sometimes. Her and her staff have gotten fat and lazy and it is not the X's and O's that win all the games, as Switzer always said, it is the players. Sherri's recruiting has been Terrible and it is showing. When you get over a MILLION dollars per year and you don't produce, you deserve the criticism. If she doesn't want to be criticised in public, go teach at Norman high. It is embarrassing to be picked 1st in the league and then to play like this - SAD.

Glad Lon is showing what a great coach he is and the guys are relevant again or this would be a miserable spring.
 
It is time for Sherri to pull a Bob Stoops and fire her friends, bring in new coaches with a go get attitude?

Let's see. We are disappointed because we are not winning the conference. Lon is happy that he is in contention for third place. Lon has one Final Four. Sherri has three.

Who needs lessons from whom?

Would you please stop saying that. What is the shelf life of 3 final fours. Has any coach ever been granted tenure for past success. Sherri hasn't. She is in a results oriented business. Every season is a new business year.

Mediocre results don't work in any sport at OU. She needs to have a plan going forward that will improve her results. If she doesn't, Joe C. needs to give her one.
 
Second most ignorant thread ever

look at the results. No coaches should make millions but for sure one who has 4 starters back from a sweet sixteen club and is now 15-11. WOW

Proud, you too are one of the sunshine pumpers on this board that most of us give no credibility to - FYI. There are about 10 or so on here that ALL they ever say is positive - don't know how you all do or would survive in the real world. Out here, you either perform or get fired, which is how it should be at OU as well. Sherri hasn't done much in a few years and she has gotten lazy AND she has a "friend" staff. Stoops DID show that he had a pair when he fired 4 or 5 friends and brought in credible assistants. Sherri needs to have a shot fired across her bow and let her know she needs to do better. That, my friends, is how it works in the real world and definitely should work when you are bringing in a cool 1 Million +. And by the way, being paid for by the football program

Let's see. Lon has taken more programs to the tourney than ANYONE ELSE EVER. Hmmmm, think he might have a few lessons to show Sherri who has done well WHEN she had great players. Lon has done his when he had good players NOT great players. Sherri now has good players and is 15-11 - that is not someone who needs to be showing anyone anything.

Syb, you too are like Proud as one of the sunshine pumpers that the rest of us know has no credibility and therefore we don't listen to you
 
78 put down the gun and step back from the edge of the window before you hurt yourself. Life is not going to co e to end because Sherri has a really bad season once in 10 years. Not of us are happy with this year, we all, including you, expected a Big 12 champion but for what ever reason it's not there. I have been around OU for longer than most on this board and believe me Sherri is pulling her hair out trying to figure out why.. Look at the bright side, the season is almost over

Sherri does need to get rid of her Shipp and Kittle on her staff and get some people who can recruit and question her strategy at times.

Lon has forgotten more basketball then Sherri has ever known.

I'll be sleepless for days because you give me no credibility.

A sunshine pumper thinks everything is always wonderful, even when it's not. No matter what you might think, that doesn't describe me.

I prefer to think of myself as a realist. If you really searched, you would find posts where I've commented on how disappointed I've been in this team this year. They have massively underachieved this year. However, I have watched enough basketball over enough years to know that that the overwhelming majority of programs have years where they disappoint themselves, their coaches and their fans. If, and when, that becomes a trend instead of an aberration, I'll rethink my position.

In some people's eyes, I'm not a good Sooner fan. I don't demand championships, national or conference, every year. But I do expect maximum effort and players that do whatever it takes to make themselves the best that they can be. This team hasn't accomplished that and that's a disappointment. As disappointed as you or I might be, it's not nearly as disappointed as these players and coaches are.
 
It is always intriguing to see who thinks they have credibility.

That's a rather sexist remark. Now, why don't you ask Lon if he agrees with you. I would bet that he considers her at least his equal. Women are capable of learning about basketball.

Not sexist at all. Just a fact. Played at a higher level and has more years doing it. Sherri has been great for OU, but we will see what happens from here on.

Absolutely, Lon would say the right thing , but this is a board for voicing opinions and you seem to forget that, as you think your opinion is the only one valid. I suggest taking off your Crimson glasses.

Go look at their records of having been to the Final Four or Sweet Sixteen.

Lon is excellent. Sherri's record is superb.
