Sounds like sports reporters are going to have a hard time coming up with a story from Coach Venables.

Instead of being spoonfed look like you guys are gonna have to start doing some investigation reporting.

He has been a assistant coach and a fantastic one at that.

Maybe he should hire Barry Switzer with his silver tongue to educate you was taken place so you can write a story.

Spring practice is supposed to be no starters give everybody a chance to get on the field and let their performance speak for themselves.

Last time I saw Coach Switzer he told me I should’ve stuck around and should not have left his program. He said that because he went on to win the national championship in 1985.

The story you just told about Baker Mayfield how he felt when he was at Texas Tech when he walked on very similar to the situation that I experienced at OU.

You have to remember as a reporter Brent Venables did not take the job so he could talk to you and tell you everything that’s going on.

I have never read a story that was even close to what really happened and what’s going on inside the locker room the coaches are not gonna tell you they don’t want the public to know.

Do you want to know answers who’s gonna do this who’s your starter who is this guy he doesn’t know yet this is the first time you seen him on the field he’s not going to put one person over another right now because those players read it to and if you tell me I’m already second or third string I’m gonna transfer and go someplace else.

Good luck!!!!!!
