THE OFFICIAL GAME THREAD - OU vs. Baylor - GAME #10

[PtLavacaSooner]

The boosters are sorry asses and so are those assistant coaches that signed the support letter for Briles.

Boosters had a meeting in Waco this week. It included former Texas Governor and Baylor alum Mark White and other big names in the Waco area. They reported "absolutely no confidence, none" in the Board of Regents and were calling for heads. A lot of heads.

I guess but it's sour grapes for us old timers......like you and me. Hey, CT, we probably are going to have settle for the way it is now. Time isn't on our side based on how long it will be before OU could actually leave the conference without paying a big price. TV rights and the such.

"The way it is now" at OU is the way it may always be.
I do not want 2000 to be the last championship I celebrate, but if that's what is "in the cards", there's nothing I can do about it and there's no sense in letting it cast a dark cloud over a good life. Aging has taught me not to sweat the small stuff (like what happens in sports)....but first, one has to recognize the small stuff....and that very important skill has eluded me most of my soon-to-be 68 years.
So what I have said about OU's football fortunes is not about being negative or "whiny". It's only my view of what is happening....and right now, it's what I regard as limited success.

OU could have won by as many points as Bob wanted Riley's guys to score. Baylor is done. The coaching staff is gone after this season and the young players that got caught up into this mess should get out of Waco now and really shouldn't have to lose a year because of the mess Briles and the administration caused. The boosters are sorry asses and so are those assistant coaches that signed the support letter for Briles. I don't think it's fair to the innocent what's going to happen at Baylor and it's not fair to the B12.

And BTW.... I've been very tough on Jordan Evans all year, but he was pretty special today so I give it up to him. I hope he continues to play well. Crow I will eat when it's appropriate.

I don't like Baylor...period. But... no fan base should have to endure this crap. If this was OU, as fans we would have absolutely no say. It's an unfortunate situation. As with all fan bases, most are very good people. I have no pity on the school and it's officials etc, but I can sympathize with the fanbase. Sucks to be a Baylor fan.

BTW, nice post regarding Evans. He had an incredible game. The best game of his collegiate career. i've had my share of eating crow, I always use a bit of Hot Sauce to get past the taste.
