from goodman:

"Just three years after an Elite Eight, Oklahoma has parted ways with Jeff Capel.

According to sources, Oklahoma athletic director Joe Castiglione informed Capel of the decision on Monday.

The Sooners have struggled the last two seasons, since Blake Griffin left Norman, going 27-36 overall and 9-23 in Big 12 play.

Two years ago it was a train wreck with Willie Warren, Tiny Gallon and Tommy Mason-Griffin. That team finished 13-18.

Then there was an NCAA investigation centered around Gallon and a $3,000 loan from a financial advisor.

This season was a rebuilding year in which the Sooners were 14-18 overall."

@TheBigLead I would think Buzz Williams would be in the mix for Oklahoma and Arkansas. Two spots that you have to be strong in Texas.

Big names are Billy Clyde and Buzz Williams.

I think it is more likely to be an up and comer/ mid major type.  Not sure if OU has the money to get a big name after paying Capel's buy out.  Of course the rumor is that in order to buyout Capel they had donors willing to pony up and get rid of him.  So who knows.  

Jones at UNT
Marshall at Wichita St
Cuzonzo (sp) at Mizzou St
Bennett at St. Marys
Blaine at ODU
etc
etc

The wild card that fans are throwing out there is Terry Evans at University of Central Oklahoma.  A D-2 school in Edmond, OK.  He's a former OU player and has had great success there.  He claims to have he best team in Oklahoma this year.


Also I approve of the move, I think Capel is a great guy and has the potential to be a good coach down the road.  But it looked like with the Willie, TMG and Tiny crap his hole had become too big for him to dig out of.  Shitty situation all around, for Oklahoma and Capel.

I can only hope that is the answer. Still feel OU will go cheap.

That recruit who told the recruit scoop could be hearing that from anyone, AAU coach, high school coach or read it anyone.  I doubt anything concrete breaks till late this week, early next.

blake griffin wasn't happy about it


The former Oklahoma star who is now playing for the Los Angeles Clippers said the university's decision to fire his coach was "unfair" and that the school was "piling it on."

"What bothers me the most is that everyone is saying he did all of this when Blake Griffin was there," Griffin said. "Well to me, you say he deserves no credit when a certain player is there and then, when things go bad, throw all the blame on him. To me, they're piling it on. He took over the program after Kelvin Sampson and all of those sanctions and he put his faith in everyone. This is what he gets? Within two years we're in the tournament and now two years later he's fired? It's completely unfair."

Griffin, who said he received a text from Capel shortly after the university's decision, felt so strongly about Oklahoma's decision that he reached out to ESPN.com on Tuesday afternoon.

rumor was 3.8, but newer rumor claims that number is false.  more like 1.5ish and it drops significantly in about two weeks.

i know buzz would be good for ou.  what i can't decide is if williams @ ou would be good for kstate or not.  would remove marquette from the texas recruiting pool.  but would bump kstate farther down the pecking order.  the hard part is trying to figure out if kstate could conceivably be above ou for dfw recruits if ou hires someone else.

i like painter to mu in terms of kc recruits.

hoping for a slth at ou and continued fan disconnect -

Painter seems like he is only using MU for leverage, not sure what to think about Cuonzo in KC
