Welcome to Nebraska, and I hope you're a difference maker here, but I'm not a fan of these self promo declarations. In today's world of the Transfer Portal I'm surprised any player would want to burn any bridges with a school that was pursuing him hard.

I agree with your sentiments but OK and other schools will build a bridge if he shows elite talent and productivity. The portal is a marketplace and players are, to some extent, commodities.

It’s not that character is now irrelevant; it is (for most programs) deemed worth the risk (except for the most egregious conduct).

You think a school is going to not want him down the road because of how he announced his signing when he was 18? Nobody will care next week.

Damn that's cold if he didn't let OU know ahead of time and they were watching. Based on the rumors floating around here I assume they knew.

OU was like.. Whatever dude, you were at the bottom of our list. We were this close to calling you and letting you know we weren't interested. Thank you.

Sooners aren't hurting for talent, that beat down of Bama showed what they can do, their problem is subpar coaching more often than not.
