What? Kingsbury didn't put him on scholarship, that's why he left Texas Tech.


Not really how it went down. Baker left in December. Kingsbury on record saying he did not deny a scholarship for the following year.

Shady....

You don’t leave after one year and claim “communication issues” with the coaches. That’s shady


They reneged on giving him a scholarship so he left. Again, how is that shady?

Look it up? They didn’t put him on scholarship because they had Davis Webb and Mahomes in front of him on the depth chart after he got hurt. Why would a coach give a walk-on, who was third string and only started because of injuries a scholarship?

ETA:

From Bleacher Report and why he was given a third year of eligibility at OU.

Okay, I guess they didn't pull a scholarship offer. They just didn't give him one when he should have earned one.

quote:

Trotter: So they told you they wouldn’t have a scholarship for you in the spring, either?

Mayfield: Exactly. They said they were still working on one for next fall. Trotter: Was that the final straw for you? Mayfield: I mean that was kinda leading up to it, yes. Then after the Texas game on Thanksgiving, the next week we went in, I was splitting second-team reps after starting on Thanksgiving. I still had no idea what was going on. I’d just had enough at that point.

pretty ridiculous that shitty Texas Tech had all those QB's together at once.

Mahomes is a 1st round bust live in the flesh, Webb was drafted in the 3rd round and Baker is a future 1st round bust waiting in the wings.

Two 1st round QB's and a 3rd round QB all on the same roster. Insane.

He left in December. There was plenty of time to give him a scholarship for the following year. You really don’t know what you are talking about.

Bottom line is he was pissed about not being named the starter for the bowl game most likely and quit out of spite. Glad it worked out for him but his temper and bad decisions will catch up to him eventually. Hope I’m wrong.

Lol yes I do. Mayfield was allowed a third year at OU because Tech never offered him a written scholarship. Literally why that rule exists, if he had been offered a scholarship he wouldn’t be playing.

He was supposedly told they would put him on a scholarship that next Fall and he said frick that, he plays most valuable position in the game why should he have to wait? He held all the leverage. No different than a free agent in the NFL.

He wasn’t starting at Tech and he thought he should have been and he was clearly right.

He would have been offered if he didn't quit. Glad it worked out for him.
