Come on, the coach is an OU grad. The “best interest” is thrown out the window when you know he is personally connected (and I would say that about all coaches pushing a player to their Alma mater). Obviously, he Could still have the kids best interest at heart, but since he pushed him to his own school the coaches motivation has to be questioned. At least a little bit.

what if it was Grunhard?

everyone is going to have bias in some way, shape, or form. I happen to know a kid who just signed with ND last December and I know that a few ND alums were in his corner giving him advice. Should we question that as well?

Sure, it is entirely possible that the guy was acting in his own self interest. It's also entirely possible that the guy legitimately thinks (for whatever reason) that the kid is better off at OU.

I don't think that we need to fire the guy, as Sons of Galway insists.
