Another long winded post from an OU fan to tell us there’s no shot. You guys sure don’t seem to be the least bit concerned

Damn looks like you created an account specifically to post this. Probably been sweating in your sheets at the thought of Riley leaving. Even if we don't get Riley, the threat was clearly real if it made people like you waste hours of their day pondering anxiously about it.

it is weird that LSU fans actually believed some "white whale" was coming when no other school has really ever made that kind of hire.

Our current AD hired a more accomplished coach than Riley from Florida State to goto fricking A&M.

Woody gave them hell but you can't force pen to paper. Stoops is going to have to come in and see immediate success and Woody thinks he will. It's going to be a long offseason however.

Our AD has actually pulled it off a couple times now. If we get him fine, if not...Fine. You OU fans better toughen up before y’all join the SEC.... gonna be a rough few years for y’all....

I am glad to see that reality is finally settling in for the LSU fanbase. You are not getting Lincoln Riley. To think that you could steal a top 3 coach in college football from a blue blood program is and always was insanity. Bruce Feldman has made a career on his connections and reporting. This Industry is literally his job. He broke the news last year taht Lincoln Riley was getting an extension. It is amazing that some of you still believe that he is making this up or is totally wrong, when history has proven that he has very much been right almost all the time. He has been very clear and has said over and over that it is not happening.

Look at recent coaches that have Been hired by big programs. Ohio State Promoted Ryan Day from Within. Auburn took a risk on a a non power five coach. Texas hired OC with a past resume as a coach that was mediocre. You are not getting the "white whale". You are getting a tadpole. Your AD tried and failed to hire a big name. Your previous DC is your best bet. But I think Mark Stoops and O'Brian are realistic options as well.

Your team got skull fricked by a functioning retard of a HC. Now piss off.

To be fair, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect a coach to want to leave a school that hasn’t won a championship since he was in high school and when he got to witness first hand how far off Oklahoma is compared to a modern day football school.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable that he saw how quickly Missouri faded into irrelevance when it joined the sec and can see the same fate written on the wall.

It’s not unreasonable to be tired of working twice as hard in recruiting as LSU and still struggling to crack the top 10 recruiting classes can, while we churn out top 5 classes with a literal moron at the helm.

I think in the end you’re probably right. Riley isn’t coming. But I would argue that it’s much more unrealistic to continue to count Oklahoma among the elite than it is for LSU fans to think we have a shot at luring a good coach from a school beneath his stature.

Most of the OU team wasn't even alive the last time OU won a National Championship. The current team will be deep into their 30's before OU wins another one.

Welcome to the SEC.

Let's see that last time we played your blueblood program, the score was 63-28. That's not blue blood, that just blood.

This melt—this melt right here— is the digital incarnation of insecurity. All OU fans should be humiliated by this guy. What a weak, little-dick, soy-fueled bitch

David Christopher Aranda, and LSU, own you.

Keep Lincoln, and keep being the perennial champions of a defense-optional conference, then completely getting embarrassed by equal competition.

I'll take the guy who embarrassed your offense in the 2019 Semifinal.

Thank you for this. I needed the laugh, as this day is dragging along.

For the record, I don't think anyone here is thinking Feldman is lying when he says he's hearing things. We just think he is being lied to.
