Presley drops two in a row. 3 and out.

Tulsa Football currently has 14 commitments in the 2024 recruiting class, and in Week 5 of high school football, many of those turned in big performances with their respective teams. The following is a look at the top performers.

We won football, soccer and two days in a row of volleyball matches

So I have always had Cox. I’m embarrassed to say, with all my movie channels, I’m paying $275 per month, including internet. It’s stupid I know.

I have a couple of buddies tell me YouTube tv is the way to go. But I’m seeing that Hulu offers ESPN+, which obviously would help with TU stuff.

I would appreciate any thoughts. Oh, and I realize that Cox may want to wheel and deal when I tell them I want to cancel my DVR.

With a seemingly unstoppable pass and run threat from Cardell Williams, combined with a stifling defense, Temple didn't stand a chance. The result was a convincing, old fashioned 48-26 Tulsa whipping of visiting Temple Thursday night in front of a crowd of 17,538 at H.A. Chapman Stadium in the AAC conference opener.

One of the talking heads on ESPN is saying Frisco bowl for us.

It’s hot at the tailgate, had a sh!tty day at work. Let’s go get a win.

No summaries ????

Apparently, I have turned into Grumpy McGrumpy. While everyone was happy for the NIU win, and saw positives to build on, I didn't see much I liked.

We have got to get better, more consistent QB play if this season is going to go anywhere. Feels like the coaches are keeping things conservative, hopefully they will ease the reins a bit and let loose some.

EDIT:
Dr. Phil 34
Dr. Cosby 20

Bonus Kendall: Look for Tahj Gary to become the new goal line destroyer. Looked very strong in his short yardage runs. He gets 2TDs Thursday.

Say what you want about Prime Time time but his conversation with the injured Hunter indicates he cares more about his players than his record.

Travis Hunter tells Deion Sanders 'I need to play' vs. USC; Sanders shares incredible response​

Travis Hunter texted Colorado head coach Deion Sanders after the Buffs’ loss to Oregon over the weekend.
“I need to play this week,” he said. “We need to get everything we can so I can get back on the field. I’m not taking no for an answer.”
Sanders shared that message with the rest of the Colorado team during a meeting after they got back to Boulder. Hunter missed his first game of the season after he was sent to the hospital with a lacerated liver by a hit in the Colorado State game. The initial timeline was expected to keep Hunter out two weeks at a minimum.
But Hunter watched the Buffs lose to Oregon 42-6 on the road this past Saturday. The loss dropped CU out of the Top 25. And this weekend they’ll welcome No. 8 USC to Folsom Field.
It’s hard to undervalue how much CU could use Hunter’s ability as a lockdown corner against the reigning Heisman Trophy winner, Caleb Williams.
“No, you ain’t ready and I care about you more than I care about this game,” Sanders responded to Hunter. “You’re gonna change the game of football one day when you’re healthy and ready. Your future is brighter than mine ever will be or ever was. Relax and get healthy. I love you son.
“That was the conversation. I care about y’all more than I care about this game. But I want you to learn throughout this game and through our trials and tribulations who you are.”

I just saw what appeared to be a B-29 with some fighter escorts flying over downtown. I think they had just taken off from Riverside Airport.

From Tulsa, OK. I’ve got a really good feeling about this one.

Golden!

Short week. We are favored by 4. Interesting to see if we can get pressure on the QB. On O we need to be better balanced which means - better throws and no drops.

Tulsa Men’s Basketball Gets Fresh Start as Practice Begins

TULSA, Okla. –– With an open invitation to fans and supporters, The University of Tulsa men’s basketball team begins practice on Thursday afternoon at the Donald W. Reynolds Center.

After a challenging 2022-23 campaign, the University of Tulsa men's basketball program is gearing up for a new era of Golden Hurricane hoops in the upcoming 2023-24 season. This season promises to be a transformational one, marked by significant changes and a fresh lineup of talent.

“We’ve been working with the guys since the summer, but now we can go to a couple hours a day with the entire group and spend more time, break things down, have more film time, meeting time and really dive into even more details,” said Head Coach Eric Konkol.

“In the time that we have had, I’m excited about the enthusiasm, the commitment and the interchangeable parts that we have. Now, we’re looking forward to diving into those details and try to put the team together.

“We have a lot of installation to put in. We used the offseason to really build up each player and build up their skills. We’ll still have a skill development portion of practice, but now it’s time to really install all the different concepts and schemes offensively and defensively,” added Konkol.

The Hurricane faced the daunting task of replacing 96 percent of its scoring from the previous season. With only two returners, sophomore Jesaiah McWright and senior Ari Seals, who endured a 5-25 season, the team had a lot of ground to cover.

Konkol, now in his second year at the helm, orchestrated a major reconstruction effort during the offseason. He turned to the transfer portal, bringing in a mix of six four-year college transfers, two junior college transfers, and four promising true freshmen to complement the two returning players.

Coach Konkol initiated the recruitment spree by reuniting with two familiar faces, guards Cobe Williams and Keaston Willis, who played under his guidance at Louisiana Tech. Williams, known for his ballhandling and defensive prowess, earned multiple Conference USA all-defensive team honors and an All-Conference USA selection. Willis brings an exceptional jump shot and a track record of 295 made 3-pointers in his career.

Konkol continued to fortify the roster with transfers – forward Isaiah Barnes and guards Chauncy Gibson and PJ Haggerty. Barnes, after two seasons at Michigan, offers versatility, while Gibson, a redshirt freshman from Clemson, and Haggerty come with a scoring pedigree. Haggerty is a former Mr. Texas Basketball, who comes to Tulsa following a season at TCU.

Tulsa’s quest for an interior defensive presence was fulfilled with the addition of 7'1" Mohamed Keita from St. John's. Keita will still have four years of eligibility remaining.

The incoming class also features two junior college forwards. Salt Lake Community College transfer Jared Garcia, at 6’8”, provides valuable experience, having made 19 starts in 32 games last season, while Carlous Williams has an impressive career at Pearl River Community College.

The remaining three newcomers are impressive true freshmen. Jarred Hall and Matt Reed signed letters of intent in the November early signing period. Hall is a decorated prep athlete and was named Tennessee 4A Mr. Basketball. Reed brings a lot of size at 6’9” and is capable of scoring from anywhere on the court and defending multiple positions. Guard Tyshawn Archie from SPIRE Academy signed in late June to round out a formidable guard lineup.

As the team transitions from a challenging 2022-23 campaign to a season filled with renewed hope, one thing is certain as Tulsa embarks on the new year –– this Hurricane group brings a wealth of athleticism and size, signaling an exciting season ahead.

Does anyone think Gundy is trying to get fired? Listening to portions of his Monday press conference and he just sounds like he is tired of coaching in Stillwater. I think he originally wanted to stick it out for his kid being there but honestly, he sounds 100% burned out.

Seniors like Kendarin Ray are stepping up this season and will be crucial for Tulsa to excel in conference play.

On Saturday, August 19, Broken Arrow (OK) tight end and defensive end Derrick Osmond committed to the Tulsa Golden Hurricane, about a 15-minute drive from his home. The 6-foot-7 and 240-pound athlete says his decision was based on Tulsa’s new coaching staff, and the way head coach Kevin Wilson and his assistants are aggressively recruiting the state of Oklahoma’s top talent.
