I would add Currie to the list. There are just not enough truly elite DTs out there, so loading up on high-end IDL talent in high school recruiting feels more important than ever.

Read my follow-up post. They clearly are a blue blood program based on overall resume, but at what point does their downward trajectory kick them out of the club? OU will be competitive going forward, but they are never going to be a dominant force in college football again unless something drastic changes like pooling revenues.

Yes, they are clearly a historic blue blood. But if that’s your criteria, then so is Nebraska. I know OU just made the playoff, but they are not even a top-tier SEC program IMO. And they have competitive disadvantages that make it highly unlikely they will ever come close to the kind of success they’ve had historically. Let me put it like this: OU may still be a blue blood based on their total resume, but we might be reevaluating that in 10 years. They are not a blue blood over the NEXT 50 years.

I’m not even sure I consider OU a blue blood anymore, so no.

The mod only threads during portal season were worth every penny of the subscription.

I’m surprised you had the audacity to say “OG” without it triggering your Floodphobia

@Bobby Burton with a cryptic hint on C&F this morning about more big news this summer. What could it possibly be? Documenting Chip’s acid trips live and sponsored by Rogue Shop? Buying out OB just to shutter that cesspool forever? Bringing on Wiltfong just so that OTF can trademark the Fong Bombs? The possibilities are endless.

Can we get a temporary truce with IT and get a Football Theory—Deep Dive crossover show?

A little teaser from Gerry’s OF

The staff already crushes it with extensive knowledge and covering of high school recruits, but I would love to see broader and more systematic coverage of portal players—even grading or ranking them like you do for high school recruits. Go ahead and use Gerry’s +++++++ scale if you’d like. I just think there’s some definite meat on the bone with the portal, and NOBODY in the industry has it totally cornered. Plus, I want to hear the OTF scouting report on portal players more than I do others in the industry who actively cover the portal.

You’re one to talk.

Better watch out, @CJ Vogel. Bobby’s trying to find a new young phenom because you’ve been around @Gerry Hamilton for too long and are starting to smell like mayo.
