And these weren't students or sidewalk fans, to my knowledge. They dressed well and looked to be very knowledgeable about OU. Knew about Porter Moser and gave me the scoop on the Mateer/Arbuckle stuff and how that went down.

Man, look I'm far from a Selmon hater, but what's he done exactly? I'm totally clueless on NIL, so that could be it. New lights at the stadium, ok. Top of the line BBall coach? Phenomenal! But give any AD that salary range and potential NIL, couldn't anyone have done that too... even with the non-Target situation in S'ville (rolling eyes emoji)
