OU loses another recruit to Texas Tech

Hahahahaha! I think the word is out about Bob. If you want your kids to play football and get an education. You better think twice about Oklahoma. OU currently has the lowest graduation rate in the Big 12 Conference.

This one is something called a Middle Linebacker.

Rivals.com reported Sunday afternoon that linebacker Brandon Mahoney of Fossil Ridge High School in Keller, Texas, has decommitted from Oklahoma and has given a verbal commitment to Texas Tech. It's the third Sooner decommitment in less than month to a Big 12 South school, and the second who switched to Texas Tech. Mahoney visited Texas A&M last week. Previously, Darius Jones, an athlete/defensive back from Marshall, Texas, switched his commitment from OU to Baylor, and Eric Ward, a wide receiver from Wichita Falls, Texas, changed his pledge to Texas Tech. OU now has 22 verbal commitments in the 2009 class. Prospects are allowed to give non-binding verbal commitments to any school until they've signed a letter of intent. National signing day is Wednesday.




We also got two more commitments on Sunday. By my count, that means Tech only has 2 or so schoolies left. Mike Leach always has grey shirts. Also, this is the first recruiting class in school history with 4 blue chippers. I believe our previous high was 2. Then there is still two blue chippers left to decide, both being WR's.


It looks like that trend is over of Tech losing out on blue chippers just before signing day. I will call it dead if we land Mr. Kraig Appleton. We already flipped Eric Ward from OU, and he is already taking classes.
