    I just can't see Selmon as AD, hiring Lebby, knowing he will bring the Briles connection here and all the talk to his gig here.

    If it is Lebby this was a colossal failure. I'd take Odom over Lebby every day and twice on Sunday.

    Not my first choice, but like if true. We need to get away from hiring defensive minded HC.

    If Odom really wanted the job (as some have said), and Selmon took Lebby instead?.well we need a new AD.

    Not really. You just have to be willing to pay out to get a proven winner. You can?t be gun shy with the pocket book in the current SEC state of affairs. Lebby may work out or he may not. Guess we will see. I?m sure he came at a good price though?

    I hope not. I just don’t think he’s a good coach, morals notwithstanding. There will be people that don’t support him simply due to the sexual assault accusations. While that is a concern his actions after it all are immature and makes me doubt his leadership abilities. Additionally, I believe he is very “Morrhead-esque” in that his offense does great when he had better athletes than the opponent but it’s all just smoke and mirrors and a little luck. Plus, Heupel and Kiffins leadership and offensive minds have helped him out. He doesn’t have that now and he’s struggling a bit and he has Oklahoma’s resources. It would be a bad hire regardless of how tight he and Selmon are.

    Could Sumrall as HC utilize Lebby as OC? Would this be a thing or no?

    If Odom brings his OC, I would be fine with it. Plus he knows how to run a program. That?s what I personally want?..a sitting HC. Coordinators are a toss up, you just don?t know how they will handle being in charge. We have not had much luck with those type of hires.

    Why would you want a fanbase split like that? I wouldn't want to hire any coach that a lot of fans are uncomfortable with, even if I personally was OK with him.

    Well, as you know, there's a certain segment of the population that feels it's a good thing to be an asshole 100% of the time if it gets you what you want and doubly so if it pisses off people you don't like.

    Clearly that dude is among them.

    I'll still watch the games on TV and cheer for my team, but I won't send a dollar to the athletic department if that's the kind of person we're hiring. Leave that shit to Ole Miss and Auburn.
    WHY IS EVERYONE YELLING?!?

    If true, that really sucks.

    The OU people will help him pack.

    Never been a head coach and no matter what anyone thinks, the Briles thing is a negative.

    Here's the thing i don't get about the 'Briles' thing. Most wanted Briles as OC under Arnett last offseason, so of it didn't bother us then why would it bother us now wirh Lebby?

    Here is what you can bank on. If it?s Lebby, Selmon took the lazy hire. If it?s Odom, Keenum is making the hire. I dont think it is either one of them
