    I just want to reiterate my earlier post. Thayer Evans is fawking garbage. He's a Sooner alum who has written fabricated pieces about Texas and anyone else not OU. Never believe anything he's written.

    I"m obviously a little biased too, but I"m also not naive and blind enough even before seeing , for lack of a better word, how ridiculously silly the basis of these allegations are and the overall manner of journalism of this "piece," I knew that SOME of these things probably did or do go on, most likely all without any of the coaches' or school's knowledge; nothwithstanding the fact that it probably happens at every major college.

    With that said, and I think some of you who have cared enough and be open minded enough to actually read some of the details of the counters to these allegations should be alteast privy to now, the whole basis for this "investigation" can be described as simply nothing as short of a smear job, simply due to the fact that THAYER EVANS was the one who initiated it and did most of the "investigation" and "interviews."

    Latest installment is the best. Cognitive dissonance exemplified by the writers.

    Agreed on the fact that he is garbage.

    I do not believe that he is a Sooner alum. I believe he went to oklahoma wesleyan university. He is a huge sooner fan but like most obnoxious sooner fans he did not attend OU. The ones that went there seem to be far less obnoxious.
