All in on Mateer (Boomed and Sooned)

[Reyrey]

I'm not saying he’s coming here but nothing can be taken from that text besides he’s entering the portal

“I’ve decided to take one of the opportunities presented to me”. Sounds like a decision to me. where have you seen at all that we have presented said opportunity? OU has shared pretty openly they have. That just doesn’t sound promising to me. I hope I am wrong

 

[9oh4Cane]

Sounds like he’s OU bound. Oh well, hopefully we can get to bowl eligible with Emily

Doesn't sound done.....

Man I just ******* hope we have someone else we are after. OU is going to make it tough to say no if this is from near there and brought all his comfort over from WSU. I’m sure Miami is giving him much to think about but we can’t rely on this if OU is going all in to the max - we saw this last year with Stone as well they won when they needed to against us.

 

[MumbleRap]

I am scratching my head as to why a no contact clause hurts us? It doesn't mean he's decided one way or another, just that the knows whom he wants to engage. Also makes it harder for new entrants/bidders.

Correct. He already knows the offers and schools…. That’s why he waited to enter. This just means he’s down to final schools.

 

[MumbleRap]

Move in quickly? They have moved already. What's he yapping about?

Blabbering for clicks

 

[JayCane20]

Your reality is incessant negatively and mopery

 

[Alex Del Piero]

What yearly fan fiction?

Like last year when people said Ward was coming here and you said they were all full of ****?

No, not like Cam Ward obviously, last year we blatantly were in the market for a portal QB.

I don’t know 100% if we are right now, which would be a tragic mistake.

Not disagreeing with you that he could be headed there. It’s very likely. I’m just saying that text doesn’t move the needle for me

That’s fair, I don’t think I need to get called out for pushing negativity here.

"Back-channel" is a term to describe the use of third parties to communicate in a time-period prior to entering the Portal.

"No contact" is like "dead period", the schools cannot reach out, but the player can reach out to communicate.

Yes

 

[MumbleRap]

Think y’all reading into this “no contact” thing a bit much lol

If a school was going to offer him 5Ms he’d find out about it quickly. Just through the agent side.

Not ruling out Mateer. He'd be an idiot to not at least listen... but.... If QB is in-house, I hope it's Nickel and I hope he lives up to the Sam Howell comparison that gets thrown around.

I've seen Emory practice. While I was encouraged with what I saw at the time, I watched that same defense play all year and it completely negated everything I saw from him in August.

Don’t take it personal man. This place is mostly negative.

Too late, the punishment you'll receive is being appled.

Need to make this happen no excuse

Im of the opinion that our W/L record will not drastically change either way. Maybe 1-2 games. Why not go with Nickel so he can get the experience? If we have an 8 win ceiling with Emory and a 7 win ceiling with Nickel…why would you not go with the freshman?

 

[Cribby]

Our side has said something? Outside of @Cribby, no one really has posted much about chances with Mateer.

OU has been VERY confident for weeks. But things can change when players hit the portal. If it’s as done as they say he’ll have “ no contact “ when he hits.

There are reports that he will have it. Let’s see.
