Looks like Gragg is a for sure early enrollee.

I don't think anyone is going to be able to let it go until we know something more as to what happened with Jalin Barnett.  I know I can't.  So.....RD?

Agreed.

I doubt he says anything for a while.  He would have given more info if he could I'm sure.

[immahog]

I would be shocked if we got word on why JB won't be a hog

Yeah I definitely skimmed thru the tidbits in search of Barnett news and found nothing.

[Oklahawg]

Two threads on Barnett.

with no real info....my post was a request for more info from RD

I don't think you'll be getting anything very soon, just my guess.

I expect the same but I also think its fair to continue to ask

[ricepig]

Will asking if we're there yet, get us there any sooner? lol

im just as concerned that we 'get there' at all....basically, to cut to the chase, I think the info should be disclosed.  I've never questioned RD before (literally) but I think it needs to be put out there.  There has been too much put out there on the positive side to not just put the negative out there...I know many will disagree but that's never concerned me

Even if it's negative for the player? I'm not saying it is, but I would think they know how to handle it best.

No one owes you or I anything.

Very silly expectations.

[jackflash]

Oklahoma is not going to give up on Barnett. I don't think he will commit until late January.

[Bubba's Bruisers]

Would love to have JB, but OT's are what we need.  OT's.

Where did he state that he's "owed" anything?


People that follow recruiting are interested in, wait for it, recruits and where they sign. When our main source in the board posts that a recruit who was expected to sign with us suddenly, of course people want to know why.

It has nothing to to do with being owed anything. It has everything to do with interests and curiosity. Which is all a part of following recruiting.

We need guards as well. We have 5 on the roster next year and are losing 2 maybe 3.

We have 4 OTs and we are losing 1 maybe 2.

Smothers will be a Senior at Center and Zach Rogers is an incoming Freshman. Frank Ragnow has more than enough talent to move out to a Tackle spot if we are good at Center.

He very well may. I don't know. I've only heard them speak on him being a Center.
