Wouldn’t Riley info coming out now damage the chance to get it done?

OU has plenty of time to respond. And there are still games to be played..

Yes

But I'm truly not sure if OU will be willing to get close.

Yeah I wish it wouldn't have leaked. Could still fall through until it's inked.

Would agree, but Jimbo to A&M broke around this time and it didn’t matter. If he doesn’t come I don’t think it will be because of a leak. Also, it’s not like this has gone viral nationally yet.

At a certain point things get too big to contain, specifically when ink starts being put onto paper.

I doubt whether or not we know what’s going on has any bearing on whether or not OU knows what’s going on

general numbers seem to have been known, maybe OU decided not to match and that's why the leaks picked up today

i mean... OU is realistically gonna have a chance to respond regardless of timing.


Do you think LR is going to literally sign his contract without speaking a word of it to the OU AD? I promise you that, whatever the timing, his agent is going to take the offer to the other side to give them a chance to beat it. Even if there is only a 1% chance that they beat the offer, he's not signing a deal with LSU without Oklahoma brass knowing about it.

Yes. We've seen this all before with Herman and Jimbo more recently Freeman and Nielsen

We've been burned so many times.

We are all weeks behind what the parties that are handling this have known. Oklahoma's AD/boosters are not seeing this for the first time today...on the CC board!

If it leaked it came from Riley's team (suggests he wants a raise) or OU (to pressure Riley).

Can't do anything about it.

His agent has had our number for a while, OU could have matched the initial, Scott got the greenlight to up it, and OU said nah

This has most likely already happened. If it's true that the only thing remaining is pen to paper, the circus has already come and gone. Barring a last ditch effort by OU, that would mean LR will be the LSU head coach.

Again, if all of the rumors flying around this afternoon are true.
