  • Do not bother

    I’ve been following for a few years. This latest episode, in which every contributor rationalizes the coaching and QB mistakes, is absolutely infuriating. I’m sure they are great guys, but my god, fearing a regime change from this abysmal staff makes them un-listenable.

SIP Ep. 235 | What can Oklahoma build on from the 2025 season and what needs to change before 2026?
Q: What can we build on and what needs to change for 2026?
The defense is solid and should stay strong with continuity, while the offense needs more talent, improved run game, and better quarterback play. Bringing back Jon Mateer if healthy could provide stability, and aggressive portal recruiting for receivers, tight ends, and offensive line is key to upgrading the unit without completely remaking the QB position.
