Your turn, @OU_Football

@GeorgeStoia @SoonerScoop I guess Kyler decided not to join?

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

Sacrificing your dignity as a head coach and a program for Brendan Sorsby lol

"It's crazy...because it's not murder, it's not beating somebody..."

Texas Tech head coach Joey McGuire defends his QB Brendan Sorsby, who's under fire for gambling on his own team's football games:

Curious to see how Mateer’s mechanics have changed since the end of the season. Hopefully they’re better, but not as good as they will be by September.

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

DeMarco was obviously a great recruiter, but it doesn’t really feel like we’re losing much with him leaving.

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

My gosh we need a good offense. Ole Miss just moves the ball at will.

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

@RobertJ3nnings Thank you for everything! You’re a Sooner for life!

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

Someone lost their job for this btw

[Parker Molloy @ParkerMolloy]

Samantha Fulnecky admitted that she didn't really read the article she was supposed to be responding to and just threw something together in 30 minutes.

The #Sooners averaged less than four yards per carry as a team this season, and Brent Venables says he expects that to change for the better in the offseason.

"That's gonna be a focus for us moving forward. We have to get better at running the football."

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

Brent and Nagy need to make some tough decisions on the offense this year. Running it back cannot be an option.

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

@OUhoopsFanGreg @DryfitVenables Yep. Time to move on.

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

Brent has had to coach his teams through two very bad QBs.

It’s time to get him a genuine, authentic QUARTERBACK.

[Barstool Sooners @OUBarstool]

BV making the playoffs with Mateer at QB deserves an extension in itself

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

We’re not a serious program if we bring Mateer back next year. Does Ohio State tolerate this kind of nonsense? Does Alabama? Any of the top programs?

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

OU is losing control of this game

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

Evil Mateer is back

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

@stringer0703 @GeorgeStoia How?

[The Optimistic Sooner @OUOptimist]

If Florida was your only loss, you’d be hosting a playoff game at the worst.

However, Florida is one of your 3 losses. You had a cupcake schedule and lost three games.

[Nash @NashTalksTexas]

All the Aggies and Sooners commenting “but Florida!!!”

It’s sad y’all have to use another school as a surrogate for your success against Texas.

[Russ Latino @RussLatino]

Kiffin supposedly has given offensive coaches an ultimatum: come with me today or there won’t be a spot for you. The injury he’s inflicting on @OleMissFB has gone from selfishly incidental to intentional.

The danger is this: he’s delayed his decision so long that putting together another staff is going to be much more difficult than it needed to be. If assistants leave today, could it increase the chances of player defections pre-playoffs? Maybe. I’ve been less worried about that with Kiffin, himself, but some of these young guys will be loyal to their position coaches.

He’s going to play victim along the way and his PR firm (ESPN) will help, but this guy is every bit the petulant brat he was 20 years ago. And no, this is not @KeithCarterOM’s fault. Kiffin feels so damn entitled that he thought he could quit, sign on with our conference rival and then continuing dictating the operation of @OleMissFB for the next month plus.

The guy, fully knowing he was leaving, was tweeting about Ole Miss in the SEC Championship yesterday through his dog. He cares about one thing. Himself. It’s time to rally around the team and the university.
