It's latter's FYIFrom a rivals article about Kewan Lacy:
Instead of sitting around and playing video games, Lacy sold those video games and controllers and used the money to buy workout equipment. He bought a bench and weights. He got up before the sun in the mornings to run. He wasn't going to stand on the sidelines again.
"He turned my whole garage into a weight room," Kendra said. "He got a bench, the bars, the weights, the ladders, the cones, the parachutes. He just wanted to work out. When he went back to school, everyone was like, 'What have you been feeding this kid?' I would say, 'Listen, he's been working out.""
I mean..Deions not wrong
You gotta spoiler that last paragraph or something so @CornHub doesn't get his jimmies rustledI’d agree that you don’t want to get guys just chasing NIL. Coaches already have to disprove the rumor that walk-ons are treated different than scholarship guys. All of a sudden you have another layer with who is getting more NIL money because you don’t want more wasted resources and have to answer to boosters saying “you told me to pony up cause we need this guy but he isn’t even playing.”
I think you give the proven transfers the money. Too much unknown with the high school guys. Go get the Rouses, Scott’s, and Kemps of the world.
Love not having a dog in the fight and letting these two numbnutts hash it out
He's been awesome since Day 1 and has only gotten better imo. The Lacy story is one of the better ones he's written for us over the last year.Damn, I love reading Steve Marik’s articles. @Zack Carpenter got a gem of a reporter IMO.
Great article and I like that your writers are on the cutting edge of technology i.e. knowing how to use Spell Check. Many major Husker publications in Nebraska haven't been able to find this elusive Spell Check technologyHe's been awesome since Day 1 and has only gotten better imo.

WtfFrom today's SoonerScoop
Sooners Regaining Momentum for Key OL Target?
A player that many had started to write off some time ago is Logan (Cockeye) Logan-Magnolia offensive lineman Grant Brix. The nation’s No. 2 interior offensive lineman, according to the Tater Island Industry rankings, seemed high on the Sooners at several points but Oklahoma seemed to have lost momentum following visits to Kansas State, Nebraska, and Alabama.
The Tide aren’t seen as a real contender at this point largely because of proximity to home. In fact that was seen as the reality that would hurt Oklahoma in his recruitment. Brix would choose to stay closer to home with Nebraska or Kansas State.
However over the last 10 days or so the Sooners seem to be making a move and there is some confidence around Norman that Brix’s relationship with Bill Bedenbaugh and Jerry Schmidt could be big for Oklahoma.
“He loves (Bedenbaugh) and Schmidt and I think he’s starting to realize that if you’re going to excel as an offensive lineman, those are the two staff members on any campus you need to feel good about,” a source said.
Is that enough? It’s hard to be sure of anything with Brix but there is some momentum.
Brix seems to have no timeline for his choice but he’s definitely worth keeping an eye on as Oklahoma continues to battle with the Huskers and Wildcats.
One of the downsides of 1 year of Frost tutelage tbhDammitDonny R gets one good recruit and now he thinks he can stop recruiting
