If Riley has told them he is leaving, they would have fired him and announced why.

Yeah, no.

No way OU starts looking if they are still working to sign a new contract with Riley.

Wrong. A competent AD is always ready for this exact situation and won’t put all his eggs in one basket. Maybe for non-revenue generating sports he plays the slow game, but not for football and not for a program like OU.

Big Game Bob is the most smug of all the Okies. F him!

I believe Riley has made a definitive decision one way or the other. He’s not mulling over anything at this point. I also think he’s communicated that decision to his current boss and Woodward. If he’s staying then it’s no worries in Norman. If he has said he was leaving then Castiglione probably locked in his new coach fairly quickly and quietly. OU is a massive job in college football and won’t have any problem finding someone fast

OK.

I don't want us to hire him. I was saying Oklahoma will hire him if Riley leaves. I don't care how smug he is.

He apparently is staying. Those in the know (on the Okie side) appear extremely confident. This Pharmosaurus here is full of shite.

Gotcha

I just don't like the sonofabitch - ever since 2003 champ game (Jan 2004) when he acted like a lil punk bitch in the halftime interview.

Because it's not a done deal. Riley might have somewhat of an agreement with LSU, but until he signs a contract OU is going to try to keep him.

Yesterday I gave up on Riley. The Okies are just way too smugly confident. I feel 100% convinced he's staying at his precious Norman Utopia OkieU.

I apologize. I enjoy riding alongside you. The ride was fun while it lasted.

It actually makes the most sense if it is Riley.

Because Oklahoma feels like they have more to gain, by keeping it quiet and playing for a Big 12 title and possible play off birth, than by blowing the lid off and starting their coaching search now.

Personally, I don’t see why Riley jumps ship over here. Doesn’t make much sense. Would love to have him though

Riley is simply using LSU to get a raise at OU.

Because they already have his replacement lined up and it’s in EVERYONES best interest to keep this quiet now.
