When I donated $500 to the stadium fund, I just assumed I wouldn't have been the only donor...

Bring Andre Home!
Here you go:We've invested at an all time high under Klieman. They literally had an article about it this year.So the investing part isn't the issue. I think he's going to kick ass in the transfer portal again, so i'm not worried about recruting and I always get a good laugh out of the people who do.
You should have a new all time high every year or you're falling behind. Either way, I'd like to read the article if you could post it, please. Would be greatly appreciated.

*2022 class remains in progress
It just hit me. That article claims we were top 10 in spending 4 years in a row from 07-10, and spent the most money in the country on the 2008 class. Well, those are classes that went on to make a Cotton Bowl and Fiesta Bowl appearance.
Now I will forever claim we need to SPEND MORE MONEY.
Context. Here are those class rankings
2007- 38
2008- 27
2009- 92
2010- 63
About that '08 class, there were 4 four star recruits, all of them were juco transfers. The current staff has done a very good job with transfers, I don't know that it's fair to hold the 2008 class up to something this staff can't do just because rivals rated juco players but they don't now score NCAA transfers. Those four players by the way were Daniel Thomas, Aubrey Quarles, Ulla Pomele, and Daniel Calvin. One stud, one solid contributor, one guy who played but didn't produce, and one who did nothing.
I'm guessing they didn't need to spend all that money to get Brandon Banks, DT, and Collin Klein.
More context, we spent a ton of money in that era because, if you recall, Prince did a ton of gray shirts so those first two classes had 33 and 34 signees. I wonder what the figure per signee was.
Seems the player was attempting to stop the shooter
Life star to SMV in Topeka with life threatening injuries.
Oof terrible. Hope he’s ok.
Or likes to have a crap load of money to close out a careerI will not be laughing at OU as much if this is the caseYeah, they'll come out of this smelling like roses
Bet they won't.
Agreed
Anyone taking the OU job right now is a masochist
