Outrageous Garbage from Tulsa World

OK, this can't go without a response. Consider:

-- The author, John Klein, is known around the state as the biggest homer in Oklahoma sports writing, and there are a lot of them (normally for OU and OSU). I don't know if he went to Tulsa, or is a close personal friend of Todd Graham's, but his writing always sounds that way.

-- Clearly he didn't see the scores of our games with Tech and TCU, much less the games themselves.

-- He seems to suggest that Tulsa-ex Paul Smith was a much better quarterback than GJ Kinne. Smith was accurate, but overall, Kinne is far better.

If anything, he should have pointed out the passes Roberson and Clay dropped — at least two were sure touchdowns — but that would require him taking an honest look at Tulsa High, which is something of which he is incapable.

Paul Smith is a former CUSA Player of the Year. I personally don't think there is much logical dispute that CUSA is very weak especially lacking any Top 25 or even Top 50 teams

[ponyboy]

Has anyone argued that CUSA is strong?

Has anyone argued that CUSA is strong?

I don't think so, or at least I haven't read it.

But saying that SMU is certainly not good is off base.

"and the Mustangs certainly aren't good." I would be OK with certainly are not great, but ...

Also the inaccuracy regarding ECU's 2009 results are inexcusable for a "journalist".

The article states:
"C-USA, with its teams unable to get even one significant win this fall, heads down the stretch of the league season without a nationally prominent squad to hype."
I agree

If Keenum does not get hurt CUSA would have Houston in the Top 25.

So what????

I'm only sad we are giving this article hits, that was absolute garbage.

funny how everyone seems to be playing their worst games against us

I believe that would quote means, "Tip of the hat to Coach Mason and his boys on that side of the ball".
