STILLWATER – I’d love to sit here and tell you that I am absolutely well versed in Oklahoma State’s new defensive coordinator Todd Grantham’s defense. Normally, I can watch on the field during offseason sessions and then again the first week or so of the spring as they install. 

I feel like I know a defense well enough that if I were back in my younger days and in some sort of semblance of playing condition, I could execute at least the base concepts.

This probably won't be a popular take but we need someone more athletic than Parker Robertson back there covering at safety. Love him on special teams.

Agreed. Hoping the athleticism and talent factor ends up winning over the familiarity one by the opener.

Accountability is definitely needed after last years lack of accountability.

Never met him, but from watching and reading about Grantham, my opinion is he is not a fit for OSU's culture.

Hope he proves me wrong. And hope he doesn't do something to embarrass our program.

somebody with six posts, and a member only a very short time is on here spreading nonsense about our new coaches.

When will the OSU fan idiocy end?

I don't think the number of posts is relevant. Its his/her opinion. Which everything on this and all threads are. If he's spot on are you going to come back and apologize? Doubt it.

oh please stop with then holier than thou BS..... who and when somebody posts is TOTALLY RELEVANT, and I promise you I will not need to be apologizing to anybody.

If somebody is going to make that type of damning statements about our coaching staff, then they better offer more "evidence" than what they watched or what they read, neither of which do I place any credibility at all.

If he's right, then he's right, but it's just rude to say so without poslting any evidence what so ever.

and you know what I'm saying is right.

Just as it's your opinion that this staff is any good. No one knows at this point. But you do you dumbass.

I never ever expressed an opinion that this staff was any good. but thanks for the name calling and general foolery.. He said he knew, I simply said some evidence backing up his attack on the staff would be nice.
