I'm going to start writing my "Good by Mike Elko" thread for next season if this is the kind of outcome it brings :suds:

Tell him to drop a couple hundred pounds while he is at it...I saw him winded walking out of the tunnel

I've got him on a strict workout regimen this offseason. It's called the "fuck all of the B1G mothers" exercise. It's pretty common among the SEC schools. Great cardio and weight lifting.

I've heard this as well. His fiancee still lives there evidently?

Yeah and they are getting married this year. Her son graduates high school and is going to play small college basketball here in OK
 
The best part about this title is that it keeps Ryan Day around forever.

I could see it happen then. BV is a bit of a peculiar guy but so is Knowles. He accomplished his goals at OSU I suppose. If it's a move for family, I get it

The only way it makes sense to me is if Venables was told he has to be more of a head coach. I’d rather spend the money on offensive players but if it has fell in our lap obviously you don’t turn it down.

Only downside to Knowles is he will take a season or two implementing his system, it was rough for us his first season at times. That said, our defenses the last two years have been spectacular.

They if it is a family move, I get it, even if it takes some time for him to succeed. Football wise there isn't a better place for him though

Knowles adjusted how he calls games too. At Okie St and the beginning of his tenure at Ohio State, he was a blitzing mad scientist. Defense could get a lot of sacks but also burned over the top a lot because the corners were often left on islands.

Wasn't until later that he realized coverage sacks were a thing and he could get good pressure on the QB by utilizing our outstanding front 4 and disguising coverages.

Not so sure he and Venables are very different.

Knowles won't get a season or two, that seat for Vulnerable has to be pretty warm already.

Yeah you're not wrong. They've gotta fix that offense. The defense isn't even bad, honestly.
 
Hope that woman treats him real good. Gotta imagine he will be taking a good chunk of a pay cut as well as going into a much less stable environment if he leaves.
 
It's wild that the Natty came on the 37th anniversary of Day's father killing himself. Holy shit.

No pay cut, he would get a raise I am told

Crazy they would be willing to pay a defensive coach over 2.2 million when their highest paid assistant this year wasn't even half that. Defense wasn't Oklahoma's problem

Should have put that $2.2m towards keeping their QB from 2023. :dhd:
