I realize we’ve discussed it plenty on here, but I’m not sure Venables decision to go with Jackson Arnold over Gabriel gets enough attention. That may be one of the worst personnel blunders of all time. He watched both those guys practice for a year and decided to push Gabriel out. Absolutely wild.

Every time this comes up, my brain still can't believe it actually happened. It took watching him play about one and a half quarters of college football for me to be absolutely 100% convinced that Arnold was incapable of ever being a serviceable QB.  Gabriel already being a proven and reliable, occasionally dynamic QB pushes the story into the realm of absurdist fan-fictional parody fever dream territory.

During the offseason I called him their Garret Gilbert, Imagine if Colt had an extra year and Mack had decided to let him go lol.

Where did you see that he pushed him out? I think it just as easily could’ve been him wanting to play for a contender

The OU spin was that they had to give Arnold a chance because he’s a 5 star from the Metroplex and they didn’t want to burn bridges. The reality is they couldn’t afford Gabriel.

This was basically the story floated to me by some of the small fish donors I know. Basically, Lebby leaving for Mississippi State soured Gabriel on staying in Norman. Oregon made an offer and OU couldn't compete so Gabriel said adios mofos. I assumed the opportunity to play for a legit title contender didn't hurt either.

How much truth there is to it, I can't say it, other than they believed it without question. It does seem to drip with copium.

Don’t walk into a movie and start asking questions, Donnie. Go do your own work if you have shit to figure out.

Arnold held them by the balls and said either I start in 2024 or I transfer. They choose poorly

And then followed that up this class by torching their bridges at Mater Dei. Very coherent.

Might as well torch the Bishop Gorman causeway while they’re at it.

Yeah he’s probably not any good. They only recruited since 8th grade because they actually wanted a foe to recruit him. Double secret negative crootin.

No, I don’t. But, it’s Louisiana. I have no reason to doubt that they would redirect mid eight figures from legit academic needs, towards football, if that was the only way to compete. 

Louisiana would burn every schoolbook in the state if that was the only way to compete.
