No guarantee but they talk about who could make a big move and why they would help/hurt OU team rankings. Also, where 247 will have major Sooners' DL target Derrick Leblanc in the new rankings.

What we are looking for in Sooners spring game| HUGE recruiting visit weekend| Muleshoe's Player Tribune writeup BS

00:00 - Intro/talk about celebrity guest

04:30 - Talk about recruiting visits this week/spring game... Derrick Leblanc is back in Norman for an unofficial visit and a weekly shoutout to his dad, who listens to every podcast, Ricardo Leblanc.

08:00 - All the top names we could remember off the top of our heads and a breakdown where the Sooners stand with those players visiting Oklahoma.

14:00 - How Oklahoma only taking unofficial visits in April changes how things could turn out come December and why that is big for the Sooners moving forward in June, July, and the season for official visits and recruiting class.

19:00 - Does the Sooners get a commitment this weekend.

23:00 - OKPreps and the depth of 2023 and 2025. Why 2024 isn't that deep yet. Also, why program guys from instate are important to add to your recruiting classes each year.

29:00 - Don't worry about April commitments, as Texas Tech and others won't finish in the top 10. Parker and Brandon say to keep the faith in BV and company on recruiting trail. They also break down why.

33:00 - Cole Adams recruitment and more.

36:30 - Bai Jobe recruitment

40:00 - On to team and spring game talk... What we are looking for in this game and more.

53:00 - Brandon with an idiotic question (and he was joking) on what OU has to do to catch the eye of national media to talk about the Sooners being a contender. Someone will do it for some team that looks good in a scrimmage, and that will be who we hear about for the next 4 months. They talk about how stupid that is...

57:00 - Player Tribune BS and Muleshoe's narcissistic nature comes to the forefront. Brandon drops some curse words, so beware if kids are around. Both Parker and Brandon are HOT over the BS that was spewed in that write-up.

1:10:00 - Break down of what's to come on OUinsider VIP, with 'know your croot Vol one with four-star OL Payton Kirkland!" A must listen. DTY is coming on a stand-alone podcast and post-game podcast after the spring game.
