OU taking a nosedive before even actually joining the SEC is amusing

Both the SEC and B12 are going to raid TX of talent. Won’t be as much for OU

The SEC has been recruiting Texas for decades though. That isn't a new thing.

Not a new thing but playing at TX will take another bite just like NB did

They’ve already been playing in Texas for over 10 years.

Oklahoma was a PWO as well. He didn't have a scholie from BYU or OU.

RockyBalboa

He was always a PWO no?

Graig Swame

Yes. I'll never worry about losing a walk on to someone else. It's fine.

Both were PWO offers

PWO at BYU or PWO from OU, his home state. He chose OU.

The transfer portal will be there when he is ready to come over.
