I'm not seeing the confusion here. Yes, he came from Texas. Yes, he is one of our awnry bad apples. Yes, he went to OU, like all our bad apples do.
Not just talking football players, btw. Check the sooner student body contingent that comes from Texas. Replete with rejection letters from UT, A&M, and sometimes even Tech.
What a load of bullshit. You're talking about Oklahoma, not some small directional school or community college. I mean, geez BC do you really expect anyone to believe your nonsense?
Take a look at last year's
rivals recruiting roster for the Sooners. Of the 28 commitments, 9 were from Texas. Take a look at those nine and you'll find the majority got offers from Texas (as well as from lots of other places, including Bama, Michigan, UCLA, etc). They chose OU instead. This is not because they're "bad apples" but rather they liked the program, the coaches and the potential for winning at OU.
As did a whole lot of other kids from California, Georgia, NC, Florida, Pennsylvania and elsewhere around the country. Only half of OU's commitments came from Oklahoma or Texas. And, guess what. Oklahoma was ranked #7 in the country by rivals last year. Texas was ranked #31. You're not even in the top 25. Talented kids like OU a lot better than Texas these days. They like A&M (#10) better too.
Sorry. I'm sure it will eventually change and Texas will climb out of their current abyss, and back to the glory days of Mack Brown or DKR. But for now you're losing the recruiting game to your more successful neighbors. Has nothing to do with bad apples going elsewhere, and has more to do with sour grapes in Austin.
