Venables…

[JoeCakeEater]

Should have stuck as DC. He may get fired tonight after getting blasted by Texas like this.

 

[GTsapper]

I know people are saying they lost a lot of guys, but there's no excuse at Oklahoma to get boat-raced two weeks in a row like this.

 

[agt45]

There is an excuse. His name is Ted Roof

 

[BeeStorm]

Venables setting all kinds of OU records today... amazing

OU should be embarassed to even let him finish out the year. It's not going to get any better..

The dude is just standing on the sideline, looking around. amount of coaching = zero. In his first year, he should be working this game like it's a 3-3 tie in the 4th quarter just to avoid the shutout.

That's a whole other issue... why the öööö would he hire Ted Roof? Are they golf buddies or something?

Continues to fail upwards somehow. Good for him, though

I know, right? DC at Oklahoma is a primo job. Easy to get a top assistant from anywhere almost

maybe Ted “knew the defense”. Wonder where I’ve heard that before.

 

[GTsapper]

If Venables wants to get rid of Roof, I know a "defensive guy" looking for a job

 

[The Champ]

Venables is supposed to be a defensive guru; blaming Roof for poor D would be a ridiculous cop out

 

[1982Jacket]

They might WANT to fire him tonight.

But they can't fire him tonight. Outside of moral turpitude, you have to give a new coach at least one full year.

I can't think of a more absurd DC hire

Al Groh slam poetry

 

[GT65_UGA89]

I loved Ted Roof as a player, he, along with Gary Lee, won the ‘85 UGA game for us, but how does the Leaky Roof keep getting DC positions?

 

[The Wasp]

I love it. The girls on ESPN gameday were having him walk on water preseason and after the first couple of games. That stupid sideline act he pulled got him a head coaching gig, sort of like Collins being an ad salesman. Now that he has some non-ACC competition he has to coach, and that isn't gonna work out. Good, I never liked that ass when he was at Clemson and don't care a rat's ass about OU either.

 

[Akinji07]

49-0 isn’t just the defense’s fault.

 

[Flywheel]

Wasn't he once called an elite defensive coach by others? He should use that to help the defense.

 

[murrayjacket]

Bad thing is he might end right back up at Clemson when he flames out.

 

[JJacket]

Bad thing is he might end right back up at Clemson when he flames out.

I just don't see that happening. I see the Al Groh path in his future

Hope you’re not talking about Thacker - he’s awesome!
