Texas was his final four

I have already JUMPED to many conclusions None of which are any good.

Do we really think Gerry would post this void of reasoning if it wasn’t something more than personal issues? That’s not how OTF rolls. It was an update so that we are aware of potential actions.

The Oklahoma Sooners' running back room is thin due to multiple players managing injuries. Colorado State transfer Lloyd Avant is currently leading the first-team running back drills. Tory Blaylock and Johnathan Hatton (both were recruited by Texas) have been held out. Xavier Robinson and Andy Bass (ACL) slowly work their ways back.

Agreed. He could have some personal things going on… no reason to jump to conclusions

These guys are getting paid a lot of money now so if it’s not an injury he needs to get with it. I am hoping he’s not pouting because cryer is starting over him so far in camp.

Feels like half the board already wrote the kid’s transfer announcement and the other half is diagnosing his mental state from a couple missed practices. We don’t even know if he’s suiting up today yet. If he’s out there, this whole thread becomes “remember when we panicked for no reason.” If he’s not, then we’ll actually have something real to talk about. Until then, maybe chill on the fan‑fiction storylines.

You would think if it is play time/role related today would be the day to be out there to prove himself. So I’m optimistic it’s for a different reason

This is not what I was hoping to hear. I was very high on him having a big breakout year this year…. Hopefully this is a nothing burger.

When I first read that I thought it was maybe a family thing or something? But sounds like not the case?

This is some drama I don’t want.

Hope it’s nothing serious. Let’s not start jumping to conclusions.

Just gonna quit 2 weeks from the season?

Gotta be ours Rod Babers 🤘🏼🤘🏼

I was thinking the same thing. Dude doesn’t like the competition, if you want to start be the best.

Probably wanted to be a shoe in started and doesn’t appreciate the competition from Cryer. He (probably) believes he should be among the leaders of the defense with Simmons and Jelani.

Do you know what the non-injury reason is or waiting to disclose at a later time? Seems that would clear up a lot.

Would be lying if I said that wasn’t the first thing that came to my mind as well.

Can’t understand how it would be remotely beneficial for either side to let this go sideways. Hoping he just needed to reset and shows back up to battle.

That really sucks for that young man. Pray for no injuries for our Horns and all players on all teams.

Interesting stuff.

Lots of assumptions and jumping to unfounded conclusions. How about we let it play out?

I would say let’s see what happens here. First thing, does he take part today after missing a brief time. What is known, missed recent practice time with non-injury. In question leading into the scrimmage if he’s taking part today.

Not good and I had this in the back of my mind about how he might be feeling. If you deserve to start you should deserve to start. Nothing should be a given. This is why I believe Mack failed so frequently early on. He gave priority to favorites and tenured players. And I say that wishing he'll stay because he has played so well and still has so much upside.
