Looks like Bob has decide Defense wins Championships, Finally

The snot-bubble count when playing the Sooners is about to go up down the road.

Oklahoma continues to get more violent on defense during this 2017 recruiting cycle with the latest addition coming in the form of Top247 linebacker Jacob Phillips

U.S. Army All-American in Levi Draper in this 3-4 defense. Phillips ranks as the country’s No. 7 inside linebacker per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite while Draper is the No. 1 inside linebacker in America

Safety commit Robert Barnes may be more ferocious then Draper and Phillips when hitting ball-carriers. A vicious tackler, the 6-foot-3, 194-pound Barnes is an instinctive player, diagnosis well, finds the football quickly and arrives with a ton of impact. A tone-setter, 247Sports ranks Barnes as the country’s No. 6 safety in America.

Two more U.S. Army All-Americans in Addison Gumbs and Isaiah Thomas are unique pass rushers along with K'Jakyre Daley being a third that has a knack for making plays behind the line of scrimmage.The cornerback commits are two of the best tacklers in the country at their position.

Both Top247 recruits in Under Armour All-Americans Justin Broiles and Tre Brown like contact it seems as much as Barnes. Both can be seen flying into the flat decleating ball-carriers.


Now bring on the Big Uglies

Almost 6'4 225. He'll need to add some weight for sure, but he's a really good athlete.

yeah, watched a small snippet of his highlights, looks like he can sniff out the ball in the scrum, good quality to have in a LB :suds:

Kenneth Murray will be an interesting guy to watch as well. Lot of people think he has some similar characteristics to Striker, but I guess we shall see.

He's 17, this time next year he'll be around the 235 mark. That kid can flat lay the wood. Robert Barnes is the best pure tackler right now, I like his size at 17. He's another one that will ad 10 or 15lbs over the year.

Big traffic jam just outside of Baton Rouge. An 18 wheeler carrying corn dogs overturned causing mass chaos.

CFB is better when Teams like Oklahoma, Nebraska and Penn State are rolling.
How so?

Solid Teams with a rich history. Creates more excitement when other Team than Bama are winning.
Your Team, Washington, is making a strong statement trying to become one of those Teams. Congrats.

Yep, been down this road before many times with Mack Brown's recruiting class. If only talent on paper was a guarantee to transfer to the grass. If only.
