Carey is trying to jinx the Thunder right from the start this week. But we quickly get into the news of the day for recruiting. And that is the decommitment of Will Conroy who flips to North Carolina. We also talk some Elite 11 and what performing well at the Elite 11 has meant over the years. Spoiler, it sometimes means nothing, sometimes it does. Josh talks about the upcoming BBQ recruiting weekend and we're trying to let you kn...

The crew is back as we have some offseason news to talk about. OU continues building better infrastructure to operate in the modern era of college football. Jim Nagy officially announces his staff and OU adds to their sports medicine staff. We also give you the latest we're hearing on Bowe Bentley as the Celina, Texas, QB could make his decision between OU and LSU any day now. We're also getting set for another round of Brent Venab...

It's almost impossible to believe. The OU softball season and baseball season have come to an end. Really within hours of each other. But that doesn't mean it wasn't a productive year for the softball team and this team took an entirely new roster back to the WCWS and was just a run away from being back in the championship series. Baseball might have had some more issues. And they didn't make it past the regional round. We discuss ...

It's the upside down world on the Unofficial 40 as Josh McCuistion is here in studio during his Oklahoma spring football tour and George Stoia is in Florida at the SEC Meetings. We catch up with George on everything that's been going down in Florida as he's had a chance to speak with Brent Venables on multiple occasions. We talk about all the news that's come out as well as what that means moving forward. Josh is here going all ove...

It's May and we're struggling. Welcome to probably the most random podcast we've done in a while. George is back from wedding vacation, baseball and softball are in full swing and recruiting is getting ready to take the stage as Josh heads to Oklahoma next week for a full tour of the best talent in the Sooner state. The Sooners are actually in the running for a legitimate high school tight end and they've made a new offer to a 2026...

Recruiting is officially heating up after Oklahoma football picked up a commitment from Niko Jandreau, a safety from Chandler, Arizona. It's an exciting pickup because he also has another brother who is also highly regarded. Josh McCuistion is here to breakdown the latest on the recruiting trail as he and Carey are getting ready to go see Bowe Bentley this week. Big visits are also being lined up for summer camp. We also examine t...

It's a stressful time in the office as the Thunder are down 0-1 and George's marriage may be riding on the outcome of tonight's game. We talk with Josh about what the commitment of Jared Curtis to Georgia means for OU's QB recruiting saga. Coaches are out on the road and making new offers all over the place. Are Jim Nagy and the OU personnel department looking to reshape this roster with different types of athletes? And what is up ...

The news hit yesterday and On3 is acquiring Rivals. What does this mean for SoonerScoop other than the Crimson Corner being one of the most entertaining places on earth? Carey and Josh break it all down. What it means for you? What to expect from SoonerScoop moving forward and everything we want to address right now. We also clean up the portal talk and take a deep dive into the receiver position. How good is this unit after the po...

George was under the weather today so we had an OG podcast with Carey, Josh and Eddie. It's been a busy week so we kind of used this podcast to clean up our thoughts on everything that's been going on lately. David Stone and the QB decision. Why shouldn't Ben Arbuckle be able to make his own choice at who he wants his QB to be? We also talked plenty of portal and looked ahead to where the Sooners could go next. The defensive line i...

With the announcement that Jake Maikkalu and Jaydn Ott signed with Oklahoma football the day before the portal officially opened, OU made a big statement that they are willing to do what it takes to get back on track. We talk about what the signings mean for the Sooners as well as what the portal still could hold in store. We also dive into where we are as a sport right now with Nico Iamaleava and why we feel better about OU's appr...

The Unofficial 40 is back and we're ready for another magical time of the year as OU puts on their spring finale, the Masters is underway and we're on the verge of recruiting awesomeness with high school spring football and summer camps. But we've also had some interesting developments in the NIL space with the House vs. NCAA settlement being in the spotlight on Monday. What comes out of that? And does that bring us any closer to s...

The gang is back in the studio together on the heels of another football practice viewing. The linebacker group appears to be stacking some depth at the position even with the losses of Danny Stutsman to the NFL and Jaren Kanak to tight end. That's because Sammy Omosigho appears to be transitioning to the MIKE linebacker spot quite well. And players continually rave about Kendal Daniels being on campus. We also got to see some one-...

Josh is back from his cruise and in his absence, OU lost a running back battle to Texas A&M for Jonathan Hatton. Where does OU stand at the running back position? Could they be looking to the portal for their next big bruiser out of the backfield? Jennie Baranczyk also pulled off one of the biggest commitments in OU women's basketball history when Aaliyah Chavez, the nation's No. 1 player, committed to OU yesterday. And it seems mo...

We literally brought in everyone for this one today. Bob even joins us for a full NCAA Tournament preview segment today. But first, Carey, Josh, Eddie and George talk a little bit about the new hire of Taylor Redd as the Assistant General Manager under Jim Nagy. And OU fans can relate to what West Virginia is going through right now. Could Porter Moser turn into Portal Moser and leave for Villanova? Josh with the latest in recruiti...

Spring practices are in full spring as we've now had two viewing sessions and a Pro Day to take in since last week. Carey, Josh, Eddie and George breakdown what they've witnessed out on the practice fields and what they've been hearing behind the scenes. We go over the newcomers that have stood out, the players fans want to see more of that have been on campus, like Davon Mitchell, and basically cover our impressions from every pos...

Oklahoma football introduced Jim Nagy as Oklahoma's new General Manager. And Carey says there is way more to OU's vision than most college programs right now. We talk about our impressions of Nagy's approach and what he had to say yesterday. Brent Venables also spoke to the media for the first time since the Armed Forces Bowl. He dropped some injury news and we have plenty to say about that as well. John Mateer took to the podium a...

OU announced they have hired former Executive Director of the Senior Bowl, Jim Nagy, to fill their General Manager role for OU football. Carey, Josh, Eddie and George are here to breakdown the hire and what happens next. Fans have reason for excitement as this is one of the biggest and flashiest hires in college football this offseason. How do Nagy and Brent Venables and Joe Castiglione work together? Will there be any issues to wo...

The ice has cleared from the roads and we were finally back in the studio for a marathon edition of the Unofficial 40. Joe Castiglione released an email detailing OU's plan with NIL moving forward and it caught some people by surprise. Isn't money still king when it comes to NIL though? We discuss. The SEC and Big Ten are trying to take control of the College Football Playoff. Are we OK with that? The baseball team is off to a stro...

The guys gather back after a freeze took over OKC on Wednesday and we're airing grievances. Men's basketball is falling off a cliff once again, so where do things stand with Porter Moser? And with that said, where do things stand with Joe Castiglione. With Brent Venables coaching for his job in 2025, how far behind is Castiglone? The guys discuss where everything currently stands in the athletic department. We're also breaking down...

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 ye...
