It's the Unofficial 40 back and fully in football mode. We're talking about Damonic Williams. George has put in the work and has all the latest on the saga that has become everything the OU football program is about in this very moment. He's currently in Baton Rouge, but there's reason to believe OU still has a chance to land the biggest defensive player currently in the portal. Here from the gang on everything they've heard leading up to this point. We also talk about the departure of Gavin...

Spring football has finished. And the entire gang is here to discuss what we learned and where this program is heading into the SEC. The transfer portal is obviously a big part of that and George is here to talk about Damonic Williams and whether the Sooners are moving on, or waiting to see what happens on these upcoming visits. Is OU willing to let this all play out? Or will they move on to other players in the portal at the defensive line position. We wrap up some of the loose ends in...

We're back as we get ready for a huge weekend in Norman. The annual spring game takes place this weekend and there will be transfers and recruits all over the place. As long as the weather doesn't kill everything that is. We get started today though talking about the portal and where OU is looking to fix their issues. And even as we are doing the pod, we again have breaking news as a major defensive line target enters the portal from TCU. Outside of the offensive and defensive lines, are the...

The gang is back together talking spring football and this time we're really focused on the offensive line and how that might be affected some of the reports we're hearing about the quarterback position. How much concern do we have heading into the offseason? How much concern should you have if the line doesn't look great in the spring game? The Sooners are hot on the recruiting trail once again and Josh is here for all the latest, including the commitment of Maliek Hawkins just before we...

The whole crew is back for another thorough breakdown of spring football camp. We're just off of our third viewing of the spring and we're also full of some scrimmage intel as well. Troy Everett is lost for the spring and the early part of fall camp next season. Where do the Sooners go from here? And what do we make of the offensive line so far. There have been few glowing reviews coming out of camp and what we've seen makes it hard to tell how much of a concern this unit really is. But other...

I mean, there is not a more beautiful time of the year than right now. The entire crew is here. Almost all of us have been watching spring practice with our own eyes. We had 90 minutes of viewing on Monday, we have another hour and 45 minutes after the pod today. While Eddie and George did a Practice Report on YouTube, Carey and Bob weigh in today with what they saw and Josh is here as well to talk about what he's hearing. There's just so much to talk about regarding this team. We've got some...

It's been a little Porter Moser heavy with his press conference the other day. It got a lot more bizarre for those that watched Virginia play last night. But we're going football heavy as Josh has had back-to-back weekends of watching OU prospects in person at Under Armour Dallas and Houston. And we're also diving into what the latest Kevin Sperry movement could mean for his commitment to OU. We actually put Josh on the spot and ask him if Sperry winds up at OU. We were also blown away at the...

Spring sports is at it's height with Football, recruiting, basketball, softball and baseball and the Unofficial 40 has a lot to cover. We got to see Drake Stoops and others run their unofficial 40s at OU's Pro Day. What were our impressions? The board of regents met on Tuesday and there was salary news for Zac Alley. What does his salary say about his place in the defensive coaching pecking order? Also a big raise for offensive line coach Bill Bedenbaugh. We wrap up the Under Armour camp from...

OU held it's now annual media day for newcomers just before the start of Spring Football on Monday. We talk about our takeaways from all the players we talked to. And oh yeah, Brent Venables also held his pre-spring press conference. We talk about our biggest takeaways from Brent and we get into the structure of OU's football personnel/general manager staff. Josh has updates on the Future Freaks recruiting event this weekend and Norman and everybody is headed to Dallas Sunday for the Under...

Spring is in full swing as softball, baseball are all underway while March Madness looms. The Sooners are looking better as members of the 68-team tournament after a win in Stillwater. With just a handful of games remaining, can the Sooners get one more win to make the NCAA's almost a certainty. The women can clinch the Big 12 with a home win over Texas Wednesday night! Bob Przybylo is here to talk about softball and the opening of Love's Field this weekend. Josh is here to give you all the...

It's the whole crew locked in once again this week as we start of with the full gang, but first we get a little springy as Bob Przybylo is here to talk softball and hoops while Eddie updates us on OU's first weekend on the diamond. George joins the show and we're still talking hoops. Has the lack of support for OU hoops eroded some of the passion from the fanbase? A dinosaur arena doesn't really scream, "We care!" And are the Sooners closer to falling out of the NCAA Tournament field or...

Football officially ended with the Superbowl but several Sooners ended up world champions. Now we turn our attention to spring football. As soon as anyone lets us talk to anyone like maybe Zac Alley or any newcomers. Hoops is coming off a soul crushing loss. The boys try and talk out their hoops issues a lot more peacefully and respectfully this time around. And stickball is here. Softball is already underway and Kelly Maxwell shines as expected. Eddie is excited about the start of Skip...

Carey, Josh, Eddie, George and Bob are all here and we're back in action this week. We talk about National Signing Day even though there was no big signing for OU in the second signing period. Should we just get rid of this second signing day? The guys talk about where things stand with the recruiting calendar as coaches have been on the road, junior days have happened and we've already moved on to 2005 commitments. How will all of this be affected by what is happening with the College...

It was a potentially huge night for OU basketball last night as the Sooners took on the Texas Longhorns in their own gym. But the Sooners didn't play with enough intensity and were beaten down until they were out. We talk about why it happened, what it all means and what does Porter Moser have to say about the loss in front of the best OU crowd of the year? We take a look at some of the recent offers that have been made by the Sooners. Josh highlighted 39 new offers this morning on...

The gang is back and we're talking about the hot issues on the Crimson Corner lately: OU and NIL. Can it be better? And who is supposed to make it better? We usually try and avoid a lot of NIL talk but it's time for the fanbase to get back to the basics on how this all works. Alabama has some big names hitting the portal as well. But would the Sooners be players for more high profile portal transfers? We're also talking about the 2025 recruiting class that is going very, very well at this...

We start out the show with a big announcement of two new additions to the Scoop family. The crew is all here and we're trying to figure out OU's position and standing with NIL and the transfer portal. Is OU willing to pay what it takes to land big-time transfers? Is Brent Venables unwilling to deal with transfers who are seeking top dollar? It's a philosophical discussion about OU's philosophy on the transfer portal. Meanwhile, Lane Kiffin is on a boat landing everyone he wants. Can the...

It's a four-man pod today with Carey, Eddie, Bob and George as Josh has the week off. We talk about the end of the season, assess what we saw from the offense and Jackson Arnold last week in San Antonio and talk about the additions that must happen for OU this offseason for OU to contend in the SEC next year. We also catch up with Bob Przybylo to talk the latest in OU men's hoops as the Sooners get ready for conference play. What are the biggest unknowns about this conference heading into...

Eddie, George and Carey met up after this morning's coaches press conferences to breakdown the matchup with Arizona and talk about everything they've learned this week while in San Antonio. Jackson Arnold's debut is the main headline, but the defense shows up to the Alamodome almost fully intact and ready to show what they can do against an explosive Arizona defense. Could Woodi Washington join Danny Stutsman and Billy Bowman and return to Oklahoma for another season? How do we feel about the...

As you can tell by Eddie's rundown, he basically boycotted the pod today. We also had some audio issues between the 42:00-43:00 mark but it was quickly fixed when George took over for Bob. We hit on national signing day and got into some of Josh's thoughts about the biggest early impact players in the class. Could Danny Okoye be a better player early than David Stone? We had a strange hoops conversation with some awkward fighting. Carey addressed the whole Dillon Gabriel controversy even...

The full gang is here and we're trying to make sense of the situation with Cayden Green. He just snuck out of Headington Hall without telling a soul and left his teammates wondering what happened. Hell, he left everyone wondering what happened. We talk about yesterday's open practice portion as well as Jackson Arnold's first start against Arizona in the Alamo Bowl. And what is this offensive line looking like heading into the bowl game? How does it look next year? How is this going to get...

The OU men's hoops team is 8-0 and Bob Przybylo is here to talk about what Porter Moser has cooking inside the Lloyd Noble Arena (maybe he will accidently burn it down). And we're mainly here for transfer portal talk as we talk over the main targets we're seeing early at tight end, defensive line and even offensive line. We also talk Dillon Gabriel and what led to his decision to play another year of college football and why it wasn't at OU. You can't ignore that OU is taking a risk here. We...

The full crew is back this week as Carey, Josh, Eddie, George and Bob all take part in the show. That's right! Bob Przybylo has made his triumphant return following his battle with the black plague. He drops in to get us ready to root for some hoops this season as the Sooners are finally in the AP Top 25 for the first time under Porter Moser. We also hit some more on the new coaching hires as they became official just after our podcast finished taping. The transfer portal is opening and the...

The OGs are back at it again this week because it's a compressed week and Bob and George have to write, write and write some more. Carey, Josh and Eddie, the original U40 crew is back to fight a little bit. Carey is fighting with the Crimson Corner on the pod again. Josh is trying to play peacemaker and Eddie is just stirring the pot as usual. The guys also try and help Carey fill out his Maxwell and Nagurski ballots. And the biggest question of the week. Will it be Dillon Gabriel or Jackson...

It's BYU week and the Sooners set out to see how many refs will be throwing flags this weekend. We're kidding. Maybe. We talk about the uneasiness surrounding Oklahoma and the Big 12 Conference. The Big 12 went ahead and changed their tiebreaker rules, even though they continue to say they are just clarifying what the rules already are. Where does that leave Oklahoma? What has to happen for the Sooners to end up in Arlington for the Big 12 Championship? Also, did the Big 12 plot for Eddie's...
