Is in prison 3 years- WTF

Greetings nerds and virgins. I keep hearing that we are trying to develop an offense that suits our defense. There's no such thing. You either have a good offense or one that is ineffective and can't score points. We need to work on our ineffective offense and fix it.

Those of you who push that narrative, please respond.

First I’ve heard of Knowles not coaching in the bowl game…

Until Cowgirl Softball!

This will be the most talented team we have ever had in Stillwater and will be competing for a Big 12 and National Championship. Coach G & Co. did an outstanding job, once again, of navigating the transfer portal to find legit players to fill the holes left by last year's group. The only question this fall was who will catch, and that has now been answered by the transfer of Cottrill (it's been a bit since we had a catcher who could also hit). Field is currently being turfed and hopefully some other small upgrades (new scoreboard, more party decks) are on the way as well. It is an exciting time to be a fan of Cowgirl Softball! I am just hopeful I can actually get season tickets before they sell out this season!

Coach Gundy did Knowles a big favor by hiring him from Duke. I give Knowles credit for what he did, but Gundy made a risky but brilliant hire to bring him to Stillwater. Knowles is now making five times more than he was at Duke.

Did anyone watch that last night? Between Terry Brands and DeSanto they put on quite a show. It’s like watching a can of gasoline right next to a fire. Just waiting for the explosion.

This is the list of schools the five-star OL from Houston (Texas) Summer Creek tells me he's hearing the most from after decommitting from Oregon. Also, word is coming out Wednesday that new Miami coach Mario Cristobal is meeting with Banks as well:

Clemson, LSU, Michigan, Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma State, Miami, Utah, Houston

Found this in USA Today....Cowboys are definitely respectable. This was before Clemson lost everyone, obviously. This is assistant coaches salaries...

Coming soon to the USA? Hearing they are being built? Glad 2A is still here- Australia gave up their guns- seems like Canada can have hunting rifles?

Great catch. Penalty on Vikings vs Washington. Washington almost scored TD.

If one of the blue bloods wanted Knowles, they were going to get him. You can only love your situation so much before money talks. I love OSU as much as anyone but would take an extra $700k a year to coach at a place like Ohio State too.

I was prepared for this. What I’m not prepared for, and don’t want to worry about for the next 2 months, is the additional fallout. What commits will be lost? What assistants will go? What kind of dumbass Internet search will Gundy conduct to come up with a replacement and how long will it take?

Find out who, in house, the players respect and want to play for and make the transition now. I’d rather take my chances that they’ve learned Knowles’ schemes and tendencies and can carry the program forward over an internet search or a retread like Patterson or Diaz. I like the system and want to see if someone can replicate. JBC for DC! Let him earn the “BD” designation. It’s time.

Going to poach a couple of our other defensive coaches? It worries me.

Damn
