For the first time in 7 years, we’ve found ourselves without an OU game on the first Saturday in December. On top of that, Sooner fans have a lot of stuff on our mind. What are you doing with your free Saturday? Give us your answer in the poll. Is your activity not listed? Drop it in the comments below. 21 Days Until Christmas!

Still no announcement from the Sistine Chapel of Norman — OU Memorial Stadium. A nation waits. Ok, we may be stretching things a bit with the Papal analogies, but if there were a smokestack at the stadium for signaling the election of a new Pope, that thing would be billowing like a bbq smoker. Speaking of, 5 days is probably about the same time Mr Muleshoe cooked this dry-a** brisket. Lincoln Riley apparently smoked this brisket longer than it took to jump to USC. Smokergate And still on the topic of smokers, Travis Davidson had apparently lent some smokers to…
Wow, great turnout for the poll! Thanks for everyone who participated, plus those who added their write-in candidates in the comments. With 732(!) votes tallied over the past day, over 60% of the submissions went to a pretty familiar name. See below for the full breakdown. BV The Clear Favorite Former OU, Current Clemson DC Brent Venables is the clear favorite here. What’s the latest on him? Still out recruiting with Dabo, apparently. As of mid-day today, he is still firmly a Tiger. Unless, that is, he’s gone Rogue Manning. https://twitter.com/alexdoddshow/status/1466478136670011396?s=20 Rhuled Out? In second place is the Matt Rhule…
As we know, there is still no head ball coach for the University of Oklahoma. So, what is the latest on the major players? Are there any updates? Well, according to social media feeds, yes there is. First, the obvious: still no announcement. The wishful thinking buzz was that an announcement may come on the anniversary of Bob’s introduction, Dec 1st, 1998. Or, even more dramatic, it would happen at halftime of the big OU Men’s BB matchup vs #14 Florida. Local NBC affiliate Brian Brinkley called time on all that: https://twitter.com/BrianBrinkleyOK/status/1466157875944988679 Still, would’ve been cool to have lightening strike…

Sooners Defensive Backs Coach Roy Manning was not listed by Lincoln Riley as one of the OU assistants joining him at USC, so it was no surprise that Manning was doing in-home visits with Coach Stoops as recently as Tuesday afternoon: https://twitter.com/BriceXavion/status/1465776388867346445?s=20 What IS a surprise is when a different recruit mentioned Manning as having contacting him, apparently on behalf of USC! https://twitter.com/jasonkersey/status/1465873448132087809?s=20 From the article, posted late Tuesday afternoon: “Lincoln Riley has been blowing my phone up and that’s been impressive,” Jackson said. “With all that he has going on, for him him to take all this time to…
Forget Cyber Monday, check out these great deals on OU sideline gear at Linc’s moving sale! Riley may have left our team in shambles, but that doesn’t mean your wardrobe has to be. The bad news (other than the continuous gut punch that was the past 24 hours) is that there isn’t actually a moving sale. The good news, is that there is actually some great OU gear on sale. An added bonus is that you don’t have to try to fit in to Lincoln’s size Medium shirts. Fanatics is offering 20% off pretty much everything, today only. Use code…

If that looks to you like a Lou Groza semifinalist kicking a two pound burrito like a football, you are correct! OU Kicker Gabe Brkic blasted this “Mother of all Burritos” from Squatchmoes at Black Mesa Brewing Company in Norman on Nov. 4. This is the goofy marketing gimmicks we all dreamed of with the new NIL rules. OU Daily was on hand for it all. Check out all the photos here.
