Nice to get some much needed Linebacker depth!! We need to try and purge more Oline from the portal as well. Oh, and maybe a proven QB. Link below Former Oklahoma LB pledge Kobie McKinzie commits to Texas (msn.com)
Good pick up. Kobie McKinzie LB - Lubbock Cooper 4 **** LB "Strong tackler with impressive arriving power. Closes well downhill and actively pursues laterally. Size and strength to get off blocks in run game. Ball-aware and goes for the big play. Dangerous as a blitzer." Kobie McKinzie, Lubbock-Cooper, Linebacker Kobie McKinzie, 2022 Inside linebacker - Rivals.com
Please guys and gals don’t hate on me- But this undue meltdown in Norman ( decommits, portal Tom foolery, loss of staff) just ain’t right for OU. They built a program the right way. That said- REALLY happy to get a LB.
Well, if not for Baker Mayfield, Kyler Murray and Jalen Hurts being poached from other teams, OUs recent years wouldn’t have been much to talk about.
I think OU is in trouble. We purposefully began a rebuild b/c of the upcoming SEC move. They're having to rebuild on the fly. It's a tough spot. If they make the wrong move, it could set the program back a decade or more.
