Summary

We breakdown the NFL Draft and what it means for the OU football program. We also give our thoughts on who landed in the best positions for long careers in the league. And no, you can't ignore the developments of no defensive players drafted or the realization of where OU is in regards to recruiting on the defensive side of the ball. Drew Sanders' flip from OU to Alabama is just reality right now. How does Alex Grinch and Lincoln Riley turn the tide for OU in recruiting defensive players? We talk a lot about the issues facing OU moving forward. OPEN - You cannot tear Eddie and Carey apart. Robo dialing is messing with the podcast. 0:7:30 - Thank goodness Kyler Murray went number one.

People usually save their hatred for Carey and Eddie. 1:27:20 - Eddie says he doesn't want to make the pod longer but then makes the pod longer with Kyler/Arizona talk.
