Same playbook Democrats and their loyal propagandist in the MSM tried to use when Trump turned the economy around after Obama.

College football is now officially a circus. Pro football is more sane and legit now than college ball. We’re hiring kids to play one year at a time, until they get a better offer. There is no more loyalty. I’m not sure you can call them students anymore. Kids with no better offers can be kept or removed if a better player can be found. Players are making more money than college grads with 10 years in the workforce. I’m older than most fans, and I don’t think I can afford to invest the time, energy, and emotion I once had. The lawyers, networks, and agents have ruined college sports.

Hip replacement after an ugly fall. Old biddy and her sleepy. Both should go to sleep, imo

do these clowns even tink about the full force and might of the doj coming to audit elections they have signed their names to?

This story is focused on indigenous Mexicans being invaded by the migrant convoys headed to the US border. Interesting read. My Hispanic friends in Houston are outraged.

While we all wait on tomorrow meeting, can someone help me understand revenue sharing.
Do those $$ have to shared equally with all athletes? Or is that still to be litigated?

Need a guy that can bring in some new receivers in the portal with him.

OSU FOOTBALL RECRUITING

Oklahoma State on track for its best portal class ever, what impact will newcomers have in 2025?​

STILLWATER — Oklahoma State’s offseason got off to a chaotic start, to say the least, but despite a publicly reworked contract for coach Mike Gundy and a staff in transition, the Cowboys are on track to finish with their highest-ranked portal class yet.

As of Monday, 247Sports ranks Oklahoma State’s five-commitment class 15th nationally and fifth in the Big 12. Rivals and On3 are a little lower, respectively, placing the Cowboys 28th and 32nd overall, although that would be the highest place OSU has finished in either ranking.

Here’s where Oklahoma State’s previous two classes finished in the rankings. All Big 12 rankings below factor in all current conference members.

OSU’s 2024 transfer portal rankings​

247: 68th (14th in Big 12)

Rivals: 99th (T14)

On3: 60th (14)

Average: 77th

OSU’s 2023 transfer portal rankings​

247: 22nd (5th in Big 12)
Rivals: 33rd (4)
On3: 57th (14)
Average: 31st
Oklahoma State’s average ranking of 25th overall is a high point for OSU in the transfer portal, and that ranking doesn’t reflect any Cowboys who may choose to withdraw from the transfer portal, as appears to be the case with slot receiver Da’Wain Lofton, according to Bryan Miller, a vice president of Peterson Sports Management.

Lofton chose to redshirt and preserve his eligibility after a preseason injury sidelined him until OSU faced West Virginia in Week 5. In four games this season, Lofton caught six passes for 140 yards.

Lofton will likely split time in the slot with former Sooner Gavin Freeman. Across his career, which included three seasons with Virginia Tech, Lofton caught 41 passes for 550 yards and three touchdowns.

Considering expected roster limitations coming to college athletics this offseason, this portal class could be more impactful than previous groups as schools nationwide are forced to be more selective than ever.

OL Lavaka Taukeiaho (Weber State)​

247 Rankings: 244th overall, 16th interior offensive line
Eligibility remaining: Two years
2024 stats: Played in nine games
Career stats: Played in 13 games

What it means for OSU: Taukeiaho’s potential impact is harder to discern than most, considering how offensive line play is tracked at lower levels. However, if any position needs warm bodies in Stillwater, it’s this one. Oklahoma State lost five of its top six offensive linemen to graduation and the other to the portal. Given that, Taukeiaho should have plenty of chances to prove he can start for the Cowboys, especially at the guard positions.

LB Bryan McCoy (Akron)​

247 Rankings: 260 overall, 15 LB
Eligibility: One year left
2024 stats: 120 tackles, 1.5 for loss, two pass breakups
Career stats: 237 tackles, 7.5 for loss, one sack, two pass breakups

What it means for OSU: Pro Football Focus ranks McCoy 11th in stop percentage at 13.3. The stop stat was designed to measure how effective the defender was at making tackles against rushing players that either resulted in a loss of yards or such a small gain that its a “loss” for the offense. The Cowboys struggled against almost every back they faced in 2024, so McCoy’s path to playing time could be that simple.

TE Jordan Owens (Central Arkansas)​

247 Rankings: 307 overall, 16 TE
Eligibility remaining: One year


2024 stats: 19 receptions for 166 yards and two touchdowns
Career stats: 29 receptions for 248 yards and seven touchdowns
What it means for OSU: Freshman Josh Ford was the head of a committee at tight end. He should continue to improve in 2025, but Oklahoma State must replace No. 2 tight end Tyler Foster, who played 210 snaps in 2024.

OL Kasen Carpenter (Tulsa)​

247 Rankings: 318 overall, 25 interior offensive line
Eligibility remaining: Three years
2024 stats: Played 853 snaps at center and allowed one sack and 14 hurries on 507 pass-blocking snaps.
Career stats: Carpenter only played three snaps before 2024.
What it means for OSU: Carpenter’s experience makes him an early favorite to start at center as the team rebuilds a line that appeared to be the offense’s kryptonite running the ball in 2024.

RB Kalib Hicks (Oklahoma)​

247 Rankings: Unranked at this time

Eligibility remaining: Three years
2024 stats: Two carries for 11 yards
Career stats: Five carries for 25 yards and one touchdown
What it means for OSU: The running back room is crowded at the top with Rodney Fields, Trent Howland and Sesi Vailahi competing to replace Ollie Gordon. However, the team could use more depth, and none of those guys clearly separated as the No. 2 option behind Gordon. So a newcomer might have an outside shot.

Gallagher's seating capacity listed as 13,611 (don't know if that includes boxes) but we officially had 13,721 for the Iowa duel last year and our record crowd is the '17 PSU duel, listed as 14,059.

Just for fun and given those numbers, what is your guess for:
1) Attendance for the season opener against Wyoming (this is a Friday night)
2) Attendance against ASU (maybe easier to get to a Sunday duel)
3) Season average attendance record (currently a seemingly paltry 5,871)
4) Single duel attendance record
5) Single duel attendance record opponent

I have nothing to give to the winner(s) here except the honor of being right and after reading a myriad posts and responses I'm absolutely sure that nearly everyone on this site would take bragging rights over a prize any day.

Here's the rules;
Whoever is the closest (+ or -) wins (duh)
In case of a tie; closest without going over
Still a tie (1-3); closest to the next question (be sure to answer all four)
Still a tie (4-5); closest to the previous question
If, incredibly, there is still a tie I will pick who I like best as a person

The deadline will be 11/22 morning (I wake from 6 to 9 and I’ll take some screen shots)
Think it through and post once, no edits. If your post is edited, you’re out

That's it. My thread, my rules. Don't like 'em, don't play

“Did you hear that, everybody? The Marquis of Queensbury rules”

Yea, but regardless Trump is the threat to democracy. Sorry ass bureaucrats they should all be flushed from their nests and join unemployment lines.

Saw a few minutes of the first half, then final score.

Is Lutz coaching coming into question or is this simply not having the Jimmy's and Joes?

So receivers coach is our last hire we haven’t made yet?

My family is interested in vacationing to Yellowstone area this summer. We will have my parents, sister, bro-in-law, nephew (9), niece (6), and myself traveling. We will need to fly and rent a large SUV. We don’t know much about that area, and could use lots of suggestions/help.

1. Where would be the best place to fly into and drive?

2. Suggestions on places to stay (I’m sure it depends on things you want to see, but we haven’t narrowed that down yet.)

3. Must-see attractions?

4. Must-dos?

5. Other things/considerations we need to know?

Any help/suggestions is much appreciated.

Southern Miss: Utah State offensive line coach Cooper Bassett is expected to join the staff in the same capacity, per Pete Thamel.

125 Spratley vs. Antonio Lorenzo
133 Witcraft vs. Belton
141 Jamison vs. Schwartz
149 Young vs. McDougal
157 Fish vs. Schubert or KJ Evans
165 Amine vs. Morgan or Picklo
174 Hamiti vs.Sax
184 Plott vs. Parker
197 Surber vs. Hill
285 Hendrickson vs. Mora
I would like for it to be a clean sweep for the Cowboys but I see three matches where the gooners may have a chance.
133,141 and 149. I do think Tagen will beat old man Schwartz but I see close battles at 133 and 149. It is Friday the 13th so
bad luck could strike at those 2 weights. We should win handily at all of the other weights. Sax is a good wrestler but he is
wrestlng Dean the Dream so no chance there. Luke "the Juke" will defeat Hill. If I take off the Orange shades they may win
2 matches.

You're not loyal and true if you don't like this stacks up there with the people complaining are poor.
