We’re so close to turning that corner to Stickball season at OU, but football won’t go away just yet. One more game, and OU is well represented. Best representation in the big game for the third straight season and guaranteed multiple champions.

Remember signing day? It came and went with a whimper, as the February one has been doing ever since December arrived.

OU basketball continues to fight in the SEC grind, some good, some bad. Head coach Porter Moser and crew with a huge opportunity vs. No. 4 Tennessee on Saturday. If, you know, fans will actually attend Lloyd Noble Center.

Let’s talk about it all, including the coordinator search coming to a close. Nate Dreiling and Wes Goodwin are on staff, and Brent Venables is ready to call the shots.

It’s time for the Unofficial 40 podcast from SoonerScoop.

Murdock summary:

With just one more football game left, we’re about to officially hit the offseason. But the Thunder are getting back Chet Holmgren Friday night! In other OU news, signing day has come and gone and we wonder how coaches and front offices will co-exist in the recruiting game. OU fans were criticized by the SEC announcers during the OU-Auburn basketball game and it sent us down a rabbit hole of exciting OU basketball teams over the years.

We also talk about the future of spring football games. George used to cover the NFL and we talk about NFL offseasons vs. college offseasons and how they might start looking more and more similar. There is a framework being worked on by members of the Power 4 conferences to rein in NIL and make things more manageable for colleges. But there is still so much work to be done to make NIL what it was supposed to be. And can it ever really be what it was supposed to be? And happy Superbowl weekend everybody! Whether the Chiefs or Eagles win, there will be Sooners on one side taking home a NFL Championship.
