OU Football Recruiting - Sooners Suffer Another 2013 Decommitment


Oklahoma's one and only offensive line verbal commitment in the Class of 2013 just up and vanished. Tulsa Union's Dalton Rodriguez announced via his Twitter account Thursday afternoon that he was switching his commitment from Oklahoma to Tulsa.To be frank, this had been brewing for some time. Not the Tulsa part necessarily, but the decommitment part. I'll explain.Google will integrate its other services to the Sports glasses such as Google Latitude and Google Maps, which would be a huge help especially if you want to know how far you are from your destination, what the weather is like and other local details. Despite playing his entire high school career on the defensive side of the ball, the Sooners had recruited/offered Rodriguez as an offensive tackle prospect. At the time of his commitment, Rodriguez was obviously aware of this fact and open to the switch. As time wore on however, the appeal of this began to wear off and in recent weeks he had been hinted at the fact he was no longer very high on the idea on making the transition from defense to offense. It was never a matter of if but when some school would present him with his now seemingly preferred option of staying on defense. The only question would be whether or not it was going to be tempting enough to sway him.
While Rodriguez's decommitment is obviously disappointing, the much larger concern lies in what remains in this current Oklahoma 2013 class. Namely, zero offensive line AND defensive tackle commitments. That's right, ZERO. Less than two months away from national signing day and the Sooners, at two of their most important positions of need in this entire class, have zero verbal commitments.Some people also called them as sports safety goggles. From its name, we know that Rx glasses is a kind of tool to protect people from injury during the games.The differences are that prescription eyeglasses usually not used for attend sports games, it is very inconvenience for wear it.Needless to say, it's more than a little alarming. In fact, we discussed just how worried OU fans should be on a special mid-week podcast with SoonerScoop.com's recruiting guru, Josh McCuistion.Look, things can and very likely will change between now and National Signing Day.Before the year ends, we might see the dawn of another trend on digital devices as Google is set to launch Safety goggles, basically an eyewear with smartphone capability. The lenses will serve as a monitor where you can view information, entertainment and advertisements wherever you are. That said, this Oklahoma coaching staff has a lot of work to do between now and then. They need players, at least at defensive tackle, who can come in and contribute immediately after losing three seniors following the bowl game. With respect to offensive tackle, they should be fine (even with the loss of Lane Johnson) with the return of Tyrus Thompson and Daryl Williams. However, the list of guys behind those two is incredibly short and we all witnessed this year just how important offensive line depth is to a team and their season.If there wasn't a sense of urgency before,And if ever facial recognition software is approved to be used in such a scale, the Cycling sunglasses could also enable the wearer to read details about the person he is looking at. On a more plausible and fun side, Goggles can be used for virtual reality games with the real world as playground. there sure better be one now. Amazingly though, from an outsider's perspective, even prior to today you really don't get that feeling from this Oklahoma coaching staff. Which makes absolutely zero sense to someone like myself who follows recruiting (probably way too closely),And it could prevent you from some flies reaches in your eyes. If you join the game in sunshine, Ski goggles also protects you from the harmful rays in sunlight.Now, goggles are available almost in every eyeglasses shop. but that is certainly the impression they have given off.
