DGB denied eligibility

[NoNC4Tubs]

That was the correct ruling.............

[Inhogswetrust]

But, but...........how can that be so?! Coach "Big Game" Bob's heavenly inspired attempt to "save" DGB from his past transgressions aren't being fully appreciated by the mean spirited, heartless meanies at the NCAA. What's this world come to that such injustice is allowed to exist!

Maybe a Mizzou tiger sent them a picture of the "boz" at the Orange bowl with a certain T-shirt on from years ago just to remind them of what OU football thinks about the NCAA..........................

Pinkel on DGB not getting waiver: "I want him to use this year to really help himself so he can come back and have a great year after that."

To add context, Pinkel declined to comment whether NCAA's waiver decision on DGB was the right call. Just hopes he makes most of the year.

[HAWGENGINEER]

I live here in Oklahoma and most of the fans here didn't expect him to be able to play anyhow. Think it is more ho hum, usual business. Good decision by the NCAA. Now let's see if he can stay out of trouble for an entire year. History is not on his side.

[backout60]

I didn't expect him to get a waiver. But after jeremiah masoli I thought he had a slim chance.

But he gives us great looks on scout team and helps train our young DBs.

That tells me the AD is a coward without real moral standing. If something is wrong now, it was wrong before.

[pigture perfect]

I don't think he should play anywhere again. He has run out of lives.

This article on one time Razorback target DGB seemed appropriate at this time.

If Adrian Peterson and Ray Rice are getting suspended from the NFL for abuse to ladies then perhaps the Oklahoma Sooners are in for a publicity nightmare. Consider that DGB recently transferred to Oklahoma after being booted from the Mizzou squad by Pinkel. The dismissal of DGB occurred because of a police report saying Green-Beckham had forced his way into his girlfriend's home and pushed her roommate down four stairs. The report also said Green-Beckham dragged his girlfriend out of the apartment by her neck.

The Sooners are going to have a tough time with this it would seem.

Perhaps some market pressure on those sending dollars into the University of Oklahoma would be appropriate at this time.

As you may recall this was not DGB's first "issue" while at Mizzou.  It was hardly a case of Oklahoma just seeing a youngster making a mistake and giving him a second chance.

DGB had already had been charged with two separate drug counts before the night of assaulting the ladies recorded in the police report.

Hypocrites.  I can't fathom how OU can defend Joe Mixon and keep him around the program. 

[Michael D Huff AIA]

Living in Oklahoma the media here are complete and total OU apologists.  The Mixon story is strange to say the least, but the story wasn't "football player punches woman" it was "what happened to star football player to make him punch woman" or "woman got punched but has prior criminal record". 

Next season the Sooners will have DGB AND Mixon on the same field.  Arkansas might be Running Back U, but OU is Domestic Violence U.  #DVU

I didn't mind that Oklahoma gave him a second chance.  That is ok in my book.  But to appeal the NCAA to play immediately when it is known the incident did occur like it was foretold but just not charged due to "not wanting to face the backlash from fans." was stupid and disgusting.  By appealing the NCAA, you basically said that what he did was excusable (no punishment) and it clearly wasn't excusable.  If you're a female Oklahoma Sooners fan and were supporting the appeal, you have no morality what so ever.

Interesting. So the OU gooners are saying that because of the recent pub surrounding domestic abuse they'd likely not be interested in DGB. It took the added negative press to FINALLY cave in to what should have been their attitude all along. Funny how when someone asked CBB about this he didn't have to wait or rely on national attention to be brought to bear. He pretty much said he's not interested in trying to gain from another kid's troubles. Perhaps "Big Game Bob" should have thought about that when he made his idiotic "pitch" to Green-Beckham. Nah, on second thought that actually would have taken some major gonads; that's something ole Bobby boy will never be accused or mistaken for having.

[Calling All Hogs]

I now suspect DGB will play two years at OU not to prove his skills but to put as much distance between his past and draft day. If he came out next year for the draft in the current NFL climate, he would risk not getting drafted at all. 

[Torqued pork]

OU is riding high now. I doubt if anyone there is genuinely worried about PR fallout over DGB.

I doubt many of us would be if we were in their shoes.

DGB can't even play this year so this is really only news in Missouri,  Oklahoma and Arkansas.

[forrest city joe]

OU is getting away with something that's as bad or worse than what Ray Rice did. Joe Mixon got suspended for a year, and then he can come back and play football for them. he threw a punch so hard that he broke 3 bones in a young woman's face. this guy should have been throw out of school for that. he should never get the chance to play for OU. what are they thinking by keeping him in their program.this is a disgrace. and the media has said very little about it. he also played the race card. i am a black man. and i don't care what this young Lady said to him, or did to him.you don't ever do that to a woman. she did not have a Gun or a knife coming after of him. he should have walked away.the Mixon story has been way under reported.

I agree FCJ.  Very much under reported by the Media.  Mixon should have been kicked off the team.  I did read a report that media saw the video of the punch and it was very disturbing.

If that video ever get's out to the public. i think there will be a lot of outrage about it. problem is it will never be released by the D.A. or the Norman OK police department. he broke 3 bones in that young woman's face. the D.A. only charged Mixon with a misdemeanor, when he should have been charged with a felony.he could have killed that young lady.yet all he get's is what amounts to is a red-shirt year. this is sad and sickening.

Some very good points FCJ. Yep, while I realize that everyone's entitled to making a mistake, OU's obviously taking the approach that "boys will be boys" by looking the other way until someone calls their hand. A PATTERN is where more than one player is allowed to slide or basically get away with a slap on the wrist. From what I can determine the Mixon situation is just as bad as the stunt DGB pulled off. Anytime a guy uses a woman as a punching bag he ought to be slapped himself with a huge penalty/suspension. OU should be ashamed (if they can even feel such) for their lack of handling both situations promptly and courageously.

Sad to think that "Big Game" Bob Stoops has become so desperate to try to match some of the success and thunder of the SEC that he not only crows about beating 'Bama in the Sugar Bowl but the beating his players administer to their lady friends. Some people are truly miserable examples of humanity.

[Paul]

the article says the video will be released Nov 1.  I'll bet OU drops Mixon like a hot potato then.

[ShadowTheHedgehog]

LOL yeah pretty much.

[rzrbackrob]

Big Game Bob's obsession with the SEC has caused him and his AD to lose all moral bearing.

They have to see what is right and wrong by looking outside themselves instead of looking within.

I really hope DGB backfires big time on OU. Scums! Kinda interesting Adrian Peterson came from that program.

[RazorRick77]

I hate to admit it, but Missouri deserves props for getting out in front of this and cutting him loose. I will never respect anything about OU.

I never respected OU anyway, even less now. Typical sooner crap.

No, not pretty much, but rather 100% exactly. purely pathetic.

[WashUhog6]

It's bothersome to me that so many use a hindsight-style admission in an attempt to mask their egregious lack of foresight.

Millions of fans knew it was a bad idea for OU to bring in DGB based on his dismissal from Mizzou. OU has no claim to "hindsight" in this situation--they knew exactly what they were doing.

[jjdlc]

His draft stock would most likely be very low after this year, due to what's going on, however, he's going to have to keep his nose very very clean, or he may end up the next Michael Dyer.

It's been said, and rightly so (paraphrasing) "Character is doing the right thing when people aren't looking".  Stoops showed his lack of character with his initial decision.

[KennyForAD]

Knew DGB was a POS long ago.

[gchamblee]

I feel confident that we wont have to endure any coverups or explanations for our behavior while CBB is our coach. I am not saying our players will never do anything disgusting, although I think he doesnt recruit those types, I am just saying I feel very confident that CBB will handle it the proper way and it wont have anything to do with PR. It is just the man he is. I am very proud of the type of student athletes we have right now, and culture we are operating in under the leadership of Long and Bielema.

I was disgusted with the fans that mocked integrity like it was a bad thing after Petrino. We are very lucky to be under the leadership of men whose hand shake is as binding as a signed contract, who think education is more important than victories and who recruit quality human beings as well as athletes. As a parent, I would be thrilled if my child chose to play for Arkansas, regardless of who else they had offers from.

[Wright43]

It's OU.  Even their mascot is based on a disregard for basic rules.

Hahaha exactly! The first time I heard someone explain what a Sooner was, the first thing I said was "so you guys picked cheaters as a mascot? You're literally called the Oklahoma Cheaters?"

Be careful bringing that up with Sooner fans though, they're quite prideful cheaters.

Also Joe Mixon should have been kicked out of the university entirely, not just the football team for a year. At the absolute minimum kicked off campus housing, off team and scholarship revoked.

[RedRock]

DGB is another example of why Stoops is the most classless person in CF.

No way could OU justify this move after having just gone and actively recruited another person that committed the same offense. Lawyers line up on the left.
