And lies the problem for OU. We are having to go into Georgia's and Alabama's back yard, compete and win recruiting battles against them to pull the best talent that fits our team, and I don't think OU can do the same, especially in the NIL day and age. I'm not saying they will not be able to get top talent, but I don't think they will be able to get the depth needed to compete at the top of the SEC year in and out.
Their fans will lose patience quickly will any coaching staff, especially when they compare it to how fast Sark turned Texas around (aggy the same). But fail to realize the decision they took to jump to the SEC might have put them on the same path Nebraska took when it joined the BIG 10. Granted, unlike Corn, OU won't lose its pipeline into Texas, but it's completion will only get stiffer. It will have to find a way to consistently pull talent away from the Georgias and Alabamas like we have and I don't think they have the resources to do so.
