where we talk about certainly the crisis in the Big 12 and everything else has been going on this summer.

But here we are, fellows.

Good to see you.

I'm joined, as always, by Jason Kersey, our Oklahoma expert, and SamConn Jr. Our techsper, so good morning, fellas. Oklahoma expert doesn't quite roll off the tongue the same way, does it? Unfortunately. Oakspert. Oakspert. Oaksper. Okay. We can go with that. We didn't. Yeah, it's true. We didn't. Yeah, we probably could workshop that a little bit. How are you guys doing today? I'm good, man. Just chugging along. Getting ready. Getting ready for football season. We're only a few weeks away now. It's August 12th. We got, what, 16 days till the

first actual game till week zero, and then we've got another week after that until we get to

week one when the season starts in mass. So I'm super excited. Yeah. It feels weird to me. Like,

it feels like I haven't really, maybe just because of all the craziness that's gone on in this conference in the past three weeks or so. I haven't really maybe just because of all the craziness that's gone on in this conference

in the past three weeks or so I haven't really wrapped my head around the idea of like there's

about to be cultural football games on TV here pretty soon like just how's how's covering camp

been for you guys because I feel like you've you've gotten deep into that and I'm still like

I'm still stuck out here covering the chaos.

How has camp been so far?

Well, I mean, from the Oklahoma side, yesterday we got to watch, you know, 20 minutes of stretching and individual drills, which was a great, nice little return to normalcy.

You know, I mean, you don't learn a lot really from those things. I think they're mostly for photographers. But it was just nice because that is something that is usually the signal of it, that it's all beginning. And this year we got to do it, just like we got to do Big 12 media days. It's like, okay, this, we might actually have a relatively normal season. Now, not that

COVID's gone, but it's, it's just, it's a, it's just nice to be that close to the players and that,

you know, in that sort of setting. At least that's my, uh, my feel on it. Yeah, no, no. Yeah, it was,

uh, like Jason, over at Texas, we got the same setup.

It's stretch in the first 20, 30 minutes.
