So is Herman starting to prod Stoops yet?

If a QB want's to come in and get a starting position quick, then Oklahoma isn't going to be the place for most of those guys, well, the one's that are scared to compete anyway.

Mayfield has this year, then that transfer kid looks great, then the guy behind him looks good.

Strange how this comes after the spring game when the Transfer QB looked super fantastic.

He didn't have a seat at the table. The kid ou just lost was the best qb in this class. OKST went after Thompson hard but the top qb in Texas committed so he had to settle for Bevo.

Now that Rising flipped to Texas it gets interesting
Yep. That's one of the things about recruiting well and it can cut or cure...you lose a lot of good talent that wants to see the field quicker.

Now that Rising has flipped, I wouldn't doubt to see Thompson take a few more "visits".

Texas hit the goldmine when they landed Tom Herman. He was a big time home run hire.

We all saw what a Herman coached Houston team did to OU last season and now he has an arsenal of weapons of mass destruction behind him in Austin. Herman is going to make the rest of the Big 12 his b1tch.

Meh. Stoops can just call up Coach GQ and get another discarded Tech QB. Thing is coach GQ ain't smart enough to tell him he'll make a straight player trade for a guy that can tackle.

Ah ok that makes sense. Didn't realize the transfer had blown it up.

We'll see. Same thing was said about Strong.

That is a bit of Sooner revisionist history.
I personally was a huge Charlie Strong fan, but he was very debatable in the greater Texas fandom.

Strong was never labelled as a cant-miss homerun. He was probably the 7th or 8th choice in the process.
He was more of a "solid get" to save face after the hiring debacle that made Texas look stupid.

Many Texas boosters were even accused of racism for having their doubts about Strong.
Strong had some lukewarm support from day one. That probably doomed him from the beginning.

The support for Herman seems a lot more universal and closer to 100%. He was the top target all along.

Here is the thing. People over-reacted to the 2017 class, where Herman was handed a shit sandwich. People are over-reacting now after just a couple recruits in 2018. We won't really know about Herman until probably year 3.

Herman DESTROYED OU with 2 and 3 star recruits. He's a B0SS.
