Diaco is a capable coach. I spoke with him on several occasions last spring when he was recruiting one of our kids that ended up signing with OU. He basically said on D that they were lacking the athletes that he needed to fit his scheme and that the offense had the studs. I mean, that's a perfectly reasonable excuse for a high school coach, but a division 1 powerhouse? Nah... I don't buy that at all. Recruit better kids. Well let me clarify. He spoke to the fact that the kids he was lacking was the hybrid type kids that could play either as a stand-up pass rusher or a guy that can play in space. He said they had those type of kids but only a few in number and that they were primarily on offense as TE/H-backs. I am not using that as an excuse for him I am just restating what he told me. You know just well as I do is that he didn't have the players defensively to line-up against Ohio State or Michigan to compete successfully.

I know those are his words, not yours, but doesn't that sound fishy coming from a program like OU? A powerhouse national contender, year in and year out can't get kids that fit a scheme?

Negative, I remember Bob Costas ruffling feathers on ASN about gun control, but I don't know if we ever figured out whose/who's/whoms morph that was. Oh yes we did. Bob and one El Chukeen were sympatico, guey!
