Me too. Lane Kiffin could be at College Station and Lebby could be at Oxford this time next week. That's what I hope and I hope we're just driving the price up for OM.

But I'm an eternal optimist and know that's just a fantasy.

If ok state wins tomorrow, they go to the big 12 title game. If they lose, ok goes.

I expect them to win and then out comes the Lebby news.

Lebby was my 3rd on the list last weekend. I don't know if many of the candidates have the energy for this job. Only a select number can make it work. Lebby has the potential because of his prowess on offense. Don't want a defensive guy, but the DC pick will make or break him.

I disagree

Maybe you need to read my original post. I've never been on an OU message board. I live with these people. Big supporters. Not people that didn't go to school there (most of their fanbase)

Is he high energy? He looks fat and slow moving in the pictures I've seen. But I will say that in the presser today he looked like he has lost some weight. Certainly needed to.

This is crazy, but what Tater said earlier about OU?s donors not liking Lebby?s FIL wearing OU swag and being on the sidelines is what I was told today as well. A good bulldog that knows a lawyer (OU grad) said exactly what Tater said?..big donors want Lebby gone bc of Briles attendance at OU events. I look at a little differently, Lebby is not guilty of anything but being the SIL of Briles. We need a great offensive mind with southern recruiting relationships. Lebby?s not the culprit here, right now he?s an innocent victim of someone else?s mistake. I totally understand people having concerns, but didn?t Dan also bang the female that Cannizzaro was banging too. Plus, she went to UF as well? We have no idea who is really been offered much less who has secretly accepted the position.

It?s simple. Lebby chose to piss off the AD instead of his wife. That?s it.

Start to leak? And 48 hours before an official news break? If it's lebby, it's already leaked. And no, that's not how this timeline works.

Big donors want him gone because of 2 Ls on the schedule. I heard it from the horses mouths - they don't give a crap about Briles. Winning. It's all about winning.

No - it's not. When you work for someone or an organization, there is a level of professionalism you adhere to. When you publicly undercut that, respect is lost. I personally don't want an individual with that lack of awareness or professionalism leading our football team.

Thank you! Understand now.

Reminds me of JoMo in that regard.

This is where I really get confused. Castiglione and Selmon I thought were still close. Castiglione can't stand Lebby and that is known. Castiglione's own son who is a former player even trashes Lebby (as recently as this week) on Twitter. The whole group is hoping he is hired away.

This honestly wreaks of Selmon doing OU a solid but someone that is more in the know please educate me. I'm concerned.

That OK offense is top 7. That defense is shit. They don't hate Lebby, the AD does for showing him up. The AD thinks he runs college football too but he doesn't.

Exactly Cooter. Their HC is a defensive coach and I saw a sieve out there today while Lebby put up 60+

You can believe what you want, but regardless of facts, rankings or whatever else, the fanbase here sees Lebby as the issue. Go watch the games they lost and you might see what they all do. I'm not quoting one or two fans here.

Maybe their HC meddled in those 2 losses

I'll gladly take a 10-2 season.
