I really am not so worried about the Oklahoma drill. Sure, it caused Thrift to tear his MCL, and his retirement undoubtedly contributed to a very poor showing last year. However, if Rhule wants to run it, that is his prerogative. If it starts injuring players, the injury excuse is not going to fly, however.

It's too bad he was hurt but it is a proven and effective drill.
It is helpful deciding position battles.

Oklahoma Drill has it's place. Putting your face and hands through another human who is trying to do the same to you is not a natural thing for most folks and this can get them more accustomed to it. It can also get everyone's juices flowing when the energy is down. I did it about 3 times a spring and then again the first day of full pads in Fall Camp.. I might stop practice once a year and throw it in there if I thought we were flat...

So that's about 5 times a year and never in pregame.

my problem with Rhule's use of it is that it seems he came in with the idea that our kids were soft, and that is absolutely false. He took over a very physical and very tough bunch of veteran players.

He was a victim of B1G Bias.

---

"Veteran" players you say? LOL. So converted TE 265 pound Teck at center, true freshman Miller and Newman also on the OL, Mims with one season as a backup, true freshmen Sneed, Lovett, and Holmes, and Ish Wainwright the basketball player, on defense freshmen Pitre, walk-on McVea, Terrel Bernard, and Harrison Hand, sophomores new CB Blake Lynch, Jameson Houston, Clay Johnston, B. Roy, Michael Johnson, Jordan Williams, Ogor, Chris Miller, and Henry Black... all of these players were on the two-deep to start the season, and you refer to them as "veteran" players? Are you sure you've actually coached football? Pee Wee league doesn't count.

---

triggered much?

---

Never. Is that the best response you can muster for being exposed as a know-nothing fool?

---

It's ironic you accuse others of knowing nothing. You're one of the most glib posters on this board. Why not take your talents back to the paid board, where your little buddies will appreciate you?

---

Nah, someone needs to bring some actual football knowledge to the neverending threads of brainless groupthink on this board. It's a thankless job, but someone's gotta do it.

---

1-11 with a home loss to Liberty. How knowledgeable must one need to be to understand that IS NOT acceptable?

---

Nowhere did I say it was acceptable, because it's not.

This post is Exhibit A why intelligent posters flee this board like rats from a sinking ship, because they get tired of reading the same drone-like responses over and over such as DERRR BUT BUT 1-11 DOHH LIBERTY. So thanks for your contribution Captain Obvious.

Yet that team is developing into a much stronger team than all those weak teams under Briles that won us conference championships. This idiot actually argued that on another thread.

No, I didn't argue that, but I do recognize that you lack the mental capacity to understand nuance in a post, which is quite ironic considering how you claim to want just that.

Nah, I just enjoyed taking a little time on a Friday to own you repeatedly. Too bad you're not bright enough to recognize that's exactly what happened.

Again, you really shouldn't continue to subject the other members of this board to your incoherent ramblings when you engage me, so may I suggest that if you desire to continue to receive the beatings because you're one of those kind of people, shoot me a p.m. so that everyone else is not made dumber by reading your posts.

---

You get angry when you deal with simpleminded people with unoriginal thoughts? Is that what's making you lose your **** ?

I don't need to prove myself to a child.

I gave a thoughtful response to this discussion and you have attacked me. Your issues are obvious and they are on you. I'm secure in my credentials and abilities as a football coach. People who know me know this.

I hope you can get a grip on your emotions some day.

---

Alright credentialed coach, then explain to us how the players I specifically named could be considered "veterans." We will wait.

---

He never said all of the players were veterans. Must be your reading comprehension problem again.

What he DID say was Rhule inherited tough veteran players. I can't believe I am having to explain this, but what that means is the veterans on this team that Rhule inherited were already tough. That's quite a bit different from saying all the players on the team are veterans.

Now the real question for me is whether this is your glibness again, or whether you are being intentionally obtuse. Typically, I wouldn't believe someone could be so brainless, but in your case, I actually think it is the former.

---

Now this is especially rich coming from you. You've practically been laughed off the premium board because you continually make the most nonsensical posts ever seen there regardless of one's position, so you thought you'd come over here and play the tough guy where you'll get some support and project your brainlessness onto me? How pathetic.

And boy, is this post Exhibit A of your inability to think with reason. He referred to the team having a quote "very tough bunch of veteran players," and so I responded with a specific listing of decidedly non-veteran players listed on our two-deep to start the season. Funny enough, I went back and looked after that post and I left off another four sophomores with limited playing time also listed on that same two-deep, which clearly demonstrates to anyone with a brain that the majority of the players seeing the field weren't even remotely veterans. So, I'll ask you, even though I know it will be a waste of time as you're typically unable to conjure a coherent response: where are all these oh so tough veterans that he was referring to? Please name at least 25-30 of them, because that's the amount it would take for a Power 5 team to compete at a high level. You won't be able to, but it will be fun to watch your mental gymnastics in response.

Go.

---

You lost me at "laughed off the premium".... If you equate spending $15 dollars a month to football acumen you deserve every bit of derision you get here. You're a clueless 'tard, I'll give you that much. Where's my $9.95? You should pay me for my deep insights.

---

I didn't say that either. Your reading comprehension is at the level of mothball. I said the knowledgeable posters on premium have laughed at mothball because of his constant and inane posting.

---

Knowledgeable posters = people who agree with me on everything

Has there been an official nomination here for you yet to receive the Clueless Clown trophy?

Well Coach Steve, whoever he is, would probably be the first to tell you that he isn't perfect. And he made a factually incorrect statement, one which was easily provable to be incorrect. You have a problem with something factually incorrect getting corrected?

It's too bad he was hurt but it is a proven and effective drill.
It is helpful deciding position battles.

---

How has it proven effective? Who else uses it?

---

Most all of them have used it and it is still used at every level.
I guess in the U Houston pedigree, they don't use it.
It's called the Oklahoma drill. I wager Bud Wilkinson used it effectively.
I have seen it used in high school, college and pros where success matters.
There are numerous NFL teams and college teams that use it today.
There have been several threads previously on this topic.
It all relates back to Tanner Thrift getting hurt and retiring.

So, I'll ask you, even though I know it will be a waste of time as you're typically unable to conjure a coherent response: where are all these oh so tough veterans that he was referring to? Please name at least 25-30 of them, because that's the amount it would take for a Power 5 team to compete at a high level. You won't be able to, but it will be fun to watch your mental gymnastics in response.

Go.

You lost me at "laughed off the premium".... If you equate spending $15 dollars a month to football acumen you deserve every bit of derision you get here. You're a clueless 'tard, I'll give you that much. Where's my $9.95? You should pay me for my deep insights.

---

I didn't say that either. Your reading comprehension is at the level of mothball. I said the knowledgeable posters on premium have laughed at mothball because of his constant and inane posting.

---

Knowledgeable posters = people who agree with me on everything

---

It's unsurprising that's your definition of a knowledgeable poster. Thanks for clearing that up.

---

You've resorted to calling me names and "I know you are but what am I". Your name is definitely the most clever thing about you.

---

I didn't call you a name, I made an observation about you. Sorry it stings a little.

I Oklahoma Drill has it's place. Putting your face and hands through another human who is trying to do the same to you is not a natural thing for most folks and this can get them more accustomed to it. It can also get everyone's juices flowing when the energy is down. I did it about 3 times a spring and then again the first day of full pads in Fall Camp.. I might stop practice once a year and throw it in there if I thought we were flat...

So that's about 5 times a year and never in pregame.

my problem with Rhule's use of it is that it seems he came in with the idea that our kids were soft, and that is absolutely false. He took over a very physical and very tough bunch of veteran players.

He was a victim of B1G Bias.

---

"Veteran" players you say? LOL. So converted TE 265 pound Teck at center, true freshman Miller and Newman also on the OL, Mims with one season as a backup, true freshmen Sneed, Lovett, and Holmes, and Ish Wainwright the basketball player, on defense freshmen Pitre, walk-on McVea, Terrel Bernard, and Harrison Hand, sophomores new CB Blake Lynch, Jameson Houston, Clay Johnston, B. Roy, Michael Johnson, KkJordan Williams, Ogor, Chris Miller, and Henry Black... all of these players were on the two-deep to start the season, and you refer to them as "veteran" players? Are you sure you've actually coached football? Pee Wee league doesn't count.

---

triggered much?

---

Never. Is that the best response you can muster for being exposed as a know-nothing fool?

---

I don't need to prove myself to a child.

I gave a thoughtful response to this discussion and you have attacked me. Your issues are obvious and they are on you. I'm secure in my credentials and abilities as a football coach. People who know me know this.

I hope you can get a grip on your emotions some day.

---

Alright credentialed coach, then explain to us how the players I specifically named could be considered "veterans." We will wait.

---

He never said all of the players were veterans. Must be your reading comprehension problem again.

What he DID say was Rhule inherited tough veteran players. I can't believe I am having to explain this, but what that means is the veterans on this team that Rhule inherited were already tough. That's quite a bit different from saying all the players on the team are veterans.

Now the real question for me is whether this is your glibness again, or whether you are being intentionally obtuse. Typically, I wouldn't believe someone could be so brainless, but in your case, I actually think it is the former.

---

Now this is especially rich coming from you. You've practically been laughed off the premium board because you continually make the most nonsensical posts ever seen there regardless of one's position, so you thought you'd come over here and play the tough guy where you'll get some support and project your brainlessness onto me? How pathetic.

And boy, is this post Exhibit A of your inability to think with reason. He referred to the team having a quote "very tough bunch of veteran players," and so I responded with a specific listing of decidedly non-veteran players listed on our two-deep to start the season. Funny enough, I went back and looked after that post and I left off another four sophomores with limited playing time also listed on that same two-deep, which clearly demonstrates to anyone with a brain that the majority of the players seeing the field weren't even remotely veterans.

Lol. Some of y'all never cease to amaze. Just when I think many of you couldn't get any dumber, someone goes and says something like this. Thanks for the laughs.

Only when people quote him do I ever see his schtick. Watch him; he'll confirm he's Milli by knee-jerk retorting to me; just can't help it.

---

I don't know man, has he said "CAB'er" yet? Milli couldn't post more than about 10 times without throwing in a "CAB'er".

I really didn't think I said anything that controversial.... but some folks are always looking for a fight.... and must attack anyone that doesn't follow their view of things....

---

You attacked his object of worship. That's why he's so defensive.

It'll be interesting how these sheep respond when he's gone someday.

And what is my object of worship? Are you implying that it's Rhule? That's the conclusion you've reached after reading my posts? Hahahaha.

And people like you wonder why no one takes you seriously in your personal life. Hint: it's because of your limited capacity to think.

True. It's (barely) possible he finally realized how many of us feel honored to be called that.

You're a complete moron and a complete jerk. You know nothing about football and hang out, by choice, with a bunch of people that can't stand you.

If you want to keep proving to additional people you're an idiot and an a-hole by all means keep posting. I don't understand spending this kind of time with nobody that likes you and obsessively responding. It's a really sad, pathetic waste of a life.

---

Actually, I think you understand him very well.
