John Mateer isn't coming to OU. He won't enter the portal, even though OU needs him to attract portal WR'S. Now he has no one to throw to? Then there is the O-line issue. OU can't get wr portal entries? Going to be interesting watching the fan base completely fall apart after the "secret coup plan" during the grace period after the bowl games falls through. There is ZERO player personnel reason for John Mateer to go to OU now. An OC is nice, but with zero to play it, it's pointless. The assistant is joining because mateer is leaving, just not going to ou. Now, other schools' names are popping up.
I've been a huge Sooner fan/follower all my life. After watching him play this year, I really believe that Michael Hawkins can be Oklahoma's next superstar QB! (Starting in the 2025 season)! Go Sooners!!!
@@lloydgrissom1048Mcculley isn’t any good imo. Virgil is a bad loss tho I think he’s really solid. We really need Hunter from Cal he’s gonna be a stud. Had 600 and 6 TD’s I think as a true freshman. Get Hunter and 1 other nice WR and we’ll be fine assuming we can keep Burks. Gibson, Burks, 2 portal WR, then hope for development with Kearny or Carreon and we’ll be good. Not to mention Jacob Jordan isn’t a star but a really solid WR. OL should be above average too with all the young talent we had who played well later in the year. Add 2 solid WR’s and 2 solid OL and we’ll have an above average SEC offense paired with an elite defense. Remember as bad as we were all our games were winnable except Texas if we had a solid offense. With even an average offense we probably go 9-3 beating Mizzou, Ole Miss, and SC(SC destroyed us but our offense literally gave them 28 points off turnovers)
I don’t care if we do. We have a Baller in Hawkins, which a lot of people seem to forget. When he had time to throw( which wasn’t very often) he was a better QB all around compared to Arnold. Hawkins runs the ball better as well. Develop Hawkins..
at no point was he really much better then arnold all around, and i would definitely not call him a “Baller” this is the sec maybe in big 12 he could be a baller
This sounds promising. All the fixings for a good offensive set up. Let's just make it happen. Aggressive offense backed up by a stoute defense once again.
What an idiotic comment! No other program in the country can compete with Tx. athletics money!!! That’s why they’re mostly thriving in this pay-to-win frontier. OU is top 15 in NIL. Imagine having to buy a natty!!! 😂 Lame!!!
@@williebates3398 Exactly my point Willie…everybody is paying and there’s only 14 max programs with more NIL than OU. So, like I said, the OP’s comment is low IQ!
@@PaulEmberson No other program does. It is totally in their favor to outbid whoever they want. This is why money was kept out of college football for so long. It creates unfair advantages for certain programs over others. Welcome back, SMU 🙄. The only fix at this point would be to somehow give a salary to less funded schools like welfare until everybody has the same amount. But, I’m sure that’s one lawsuit away from getting blown up & before you know it, nobody watches the sport anymore. Greed has already ruined college football as we know it. Demons love greed.
PG he didn’t have 5 of his top receivers out! & theirs a huge difference in the schedule in OU’s SEC and WSU’s Mtn West!! So your comparing apples to oranges
You think he had more than one WR on his team, that would make our roster? He was also running for his life the whole time, even worse than our QBs were.
@ if they weren’t hurt they would’ve started on our team… but it looks like we might have to get a couple of his receivers, things look pretty bad so far! And maybe he was running for his life, but he wasn’t getting hit by future NFL players!!! There’s probably at least 2-7 NFL players on every SEC defense, maybe (maybe the key word) 1-2 on the defenses he was playing. You don’t think there’s a difference???
@@BoomerFootball Of course there is a difference, but there is also a difference in who he is playing WITH. For once, I agree with PG on this. Look at the stats. Running for his life, throwing the ball to scrubs, he put up 3k yards. At least he can to the part of quarterbacking, where the ball flies through the air, to a place where a guy can catch it.
@ I still think SEC def linemen bigger and faster, all freshman receivers &&& the most important part 2 incompetent OC’s makes all the difference in the world! I also think if we were still in the Big 12 or in the ACC, we win 10-11 games and this topic would be a mute point, Hope & Pray you’re right Sir… We about to find out, I want BV to succeed Boomer Sooner
@@BoomerFootball There is no faith needed. I'm not saying the SEC and PAC 2 are on the same footing; I'm saying that an SEC offense has more tools for a QB as well, in addition to the more difficult defenses to play against. So there is a partial two way thing going on, when we elevate players from a lower level.
@@williebates3398 Oklahoma started 2 freshman OL who were playing really good ball at the end of the season bc they were getting experience. Both were 4 stars. They have a non consensus 5 star guard who played really well in his limited reps who’s a true freshman who’s gonna be really good, then their 2 best OL were hurt but are both nice players. Even if we didn’t add anyone which we will, our OL will be average AT WORST next year. That’s assuming the 3 young guys who will start don’t get any better, which they will. People act like OU doesn’t have talent. Take any team in the entire country, and give them the amount of injuries we had and our schedule and they don’t get to 8 wins. Even Texas.. imo they’re the best team in the country. Take away 9 of their offensive starters and multiple backups then 4 starters on defense, then give them our schedule and they go 7-5 at best. Instead of Miss state Vandy an Kentucky with their one elite comp being UGA, give them Texas, @Ole Miss, Tennessee, South Carolina, Bama, @LSU. The worst SEC team we played was Mizzou who won 9 games or @Auburn who admittedly isn’t good but that was the only bad team we played in conference.. Texas got like 6 easy games.
It's more like why wouldn't want to come to an Oklahoma plus where Washington State is aren't going anywhere playing the schedule they have but rather here or there you have to work peace Boomer Sooner
We don't need WSU QB, Hawkins is better than him. Hawkins needs a OL to give him 2 to 5 seconds. Mateer didn't get them yards in the SEC, he got them in the mountain west. Didn't our portal last year teach you anything. Hawkins is a DAWG. he's the future, he needs to start. Stop this nonsense. Brain cells, use them.
Will the Oklahoma Sooners land John Mateer?
Yes!
No
Don't know
Hopefully
Conceivable
I believe that if mateer comes, we get experience and it will give Hawkins time to develop and gives us depth at QB
It has worked at Texas.
God I hope so. I’ve been watching highlights of their games ever since we hired Arbuckle and god he’s so freaking good.
Making moves???? We have 23 guys in the portal and 1 commit! A punter…. We can’t sign WR with no QB!
Exactly, as the Laughter continues out of Norman, OK
@@sdizzle1048 all the players were going after are in the CFP right now. Everyone knows what’s happening but you pants pissers!
I’m thinking we he’s the guy who can make a difference for OU
If we weren't getting Mateer, there would be portal QBs coming in to visit. Even if Hawkins were to start, we still need a back up.
Fingers crossed for John Mateer he could be the key piece.

We need to land this guy!
Man if they don't it'll be very interesting to see what they end up with.
PG stop! Why are we putting all our Hope in one guy?
Because it's the guy we are getting, hope or no hope. This is happening. They would have other QBs in town, if this wasn't already a done deal.
I've been a huge Sooner fan/follower all my life. After watching him play this year, I really believe that Michael Hawkins can be Oklahoma's next superstar QB! (Starting in the 2025 season)! Go Sooners!!!
My question is will OU have the receiver talent?
we’re gonna get some kids from washington state
Virgil is going to Texas Tech, McCulley is going to Michigan, don't look good right now for WRS.
@@fatkidtakesonmusic1354 The only one we would want is out of eligibility.
@@lloydgrissom1048Mcculley isn’t any good imo. Virgil is a bad loss tho I think he’s really solid. We really need Hunter from Cal he’s gonna be a stud. Had 600 and 6 TD’s I think as a true freshman.

Yeah develop Hawkins, don’t throw him out to the wolves to suffer like JA did. Kid needs to sit a year and get better, he can start 2026.
at no point was he really much better then arnold all around, and i would definitely not call him a “Baller” this is the sec maybe in big 12 he could be a baller
I honestly don't care if we get Mateer. I care if we get some guys to replace all our WR's who left.
If I were him, I would stay away from this dumpster fire of a program.
Am I crazy for saying we’re good not over paying for a mediocre WR?
Let's just relax!
Bro the QB don’t matter we have no WR who he gone throw it too besides the defense this the SEC not big 12 we fucc 😭💯
Obviously we need QB, but we need other positions of need, so far we got no commitments.
Well someone better transfer in...tired of seeing them going out!
mateer will come bc he wants competition in the sec.
Ward is trying to get him to Miami.. talks to him a lot
So far we’ve only managed to score a punter. Not a good sign.
what if buckel and kuos came just for Hawkins to coach him only. see u all can't think that road.
This sounds promising. All the fixings for a good offensive set up. Let's just make it happen. Aggressive offense backed up by a stoute defense once again.
I hope Mateer ci rs and Hawkins stays also.
I think Mateer does transfer to OU.
We should have gotten Will Rogers from UDub/Miss St
OU ain’t doing nothing. They’re at $13 million NIL while Texas is at $22 million. They need to get serious about their football program.
What an idiotic comment! No other program in the country can compete with Tx. athletics money!!! That’s why they’re mostly thriving in this pay-to-win frontier. OU is top 15 in NIL. Imagine having to buy a natty!!! 😂 Lame!!!
What an idiotic comment bro, isn't Oklahoma paying players as well? Imagine buying players.😂 Stop with the nonsense my guy.
@@williebates3398 Exactly my point Willie…everybody is paying and there’s only 14 max programs with more NIL than OU. So, like I said, the OP’s comment is low IQ!
We just simply don’t have as much money to throw around as Texas and I don’t know how you fix that.

If he doesn’t come it will say a lot.
He needs to go for it! It doesn’t get any better than QB at OU!
Without an offensive line you're not going to get a top tier quarterback wanting to go to Oklahoma.

We had 4 visits lost all 4
iTS FUNNY YOU THINK oKLAHOMA COULD LAND THIS GUY IN THE PORTAL, THEY CANT EVEN BUY A PIECE OF TOAST
Big faxx we haven’t done shii we got no money
