He wasn't. He was in Bama, recruiting for Clemson.


If it was Brent, it would have been announced already.

Joe is working on Dabo, and plans to talk to Fickell if Dabo says no


So Joe C is going to go after Fickell and wait till January to announce a new head coach at OU?

No. Plan is to talk to Fickell after the game. Should Cincinnati make the playoffs, if Dabo says no, and Fickell wants it, they'd offer him the job. He'd go and recruit for OU and have to work out with Cincinnati whether or not they'll let him coach the CFP.

Of course, I'm not sure Fickell leaves for OU anyways. I just know he's 2nd on OUs list, behind Dabo.

If Cincinnati makes the CFP, there is no way Fickell would let it be announced he is leaving and no way OU would go until January without naming a coach.

Yep. There were some arrogant asses on here telling us Riley wouldn’t leave OU. Looking down their noses at us

Well he did leave and we hired a better coach from THE blue blood program

It all worked out just fine for us lol

there’s no way, right?

If this is true and there are still posters that think Kelly was overpaid, they need help.

I wouldn't think there's any way, and maybe they're just wishful thinking, but the guys at work that follow all the OU rumors were jazzed up about Venables all day.

OU is headed into the SEC and they're fully aware that they're going to become a doormat if they don't bring a nasty defense with them. They'll be Missouri with a better pedigree.

Greg McElroy said the same thing and I agree. I mean it could be a good hire, but hes making 1 million more per year as a first time head coach than your previous coach that went to 3 playoffs.


It reeks of desperation.

Yea, I am sure that his friend's buddy really knows the contract details for OU's next coach. Let's get those hot takes over obvious BS.

If I’m ou, I want lane kiffin. Feels like it could be a plug and play for ou.
You know nothing about OU. Lane Kiffen is nowhere close to the type of quality character they want. Lane is too much "it's all about me". Not saying that's bad, but I know OU folks. Been to too many tailgates parties and parent association meetings while my daughter goes to school there. It is very conservative and Lane just has too much fun just "being Lane" for that school.

If OU hires Lanning, you can bet Schumann is locked in at DC for UGA.

Is it a reach? The last SEC DC that OU hired as HC worked out well for them.

They’re just trying to get viewership of the game up to increase advertising dollars.
