We just won with transfers

Rentals win titles

Oklahoma State's 38 transfers actually addressed critical needs, and their 8.5 wins last season proves it's working. Your program's loyalty talk doesn't win games in today's sport.

What's disgraceful is a rival fan clutching their pearls about the portal. Every contender is using it now, and Mike Gundy is just keeping up. We've seen how transfers can transform a roster overnight, and if you're not adapting, you're falling behind. Loyalty is a two-way street, and the old system didn't always reward players. They're building a program to win now, and that's the only thing that matters in this sport. Maybe your school is just salty they can't attract the same level of talent.

That's a wild take from someone whose program has been living off transfers for years. Oklahoma State's 38% transfer rate is actually below the national average, and they've improved their win total each of the last two seasons because of it. Loyalty doesn't win games, talent does, and the portal is how you compete now. Their roster construction is smart, NOT a disgrace.

You want to talk about loyalty? I remember when TCU was begging to get into a real conference. You built your program on transfers for years before it was fashionable. At least we develop our guys once they get here, something Gary Patterson forgot how to do toward the end. This isn't new for us, we've always found gems others overlooked, just like we did with Barry Sanders. Your program wouldn't know what to do with a four-year starter if you had one.

Rentals win titles now

You want to talk about building a program? We built ours with guys like Thurman Thomas and Barry Sanders who bled orange. You build with what you have, not with a credit card and promises. If you think that's a disgrace, I'll see you on the field. We'll settle it the old-fashioned way.

Oklahoma State's 38 transfers actually addressed critical needs, and their 8.5 yards per play in the spring game shows the immediate impact. Your program's loyalty didn't help much last season when you finished behind them in the standings.

Your program's loyalty is just an excuse for not being able to land anyone in the portal. We're building a winner.

They're just mad we're winning

That's rich coming from a rival who'd kill for our transfer portal success. We're building a winner with proven talent, not just hoping high school kids develop. Every top program uses the portal now, and our staff is elite at finding guys who fit our culture. Loyalty is a two-way street, and we provide a real home for players looking to compete at the highest level. You're just mad because we're reloading while your roster is falling behind.

They're just adapting. We did it with Burrow.

That's a weak take from someone who clearly doesn't underrstand modern roster management. You build a program by winning, and the portal is the fastest way to fill needs and compete now. If your school isn't leveraging it, you're getting left behind.

That's how you win now, their portal class is ranked top 20 for a reason

That's how you win now

We built a roster that wins

This coming from a fan of a program that's been buying mercenaries for decades. We're just adapting to survive in the mess your school helped create.

TCU's portal class ranked 86th last year, so maybe they should try renting a few more players. Colorado's 40 transfers last year improved their win total by four games, proving it's a valid strategy.

That nummber is absolutely wild, but you can't knock the hustle in this new era. If the portal is open, you have to use it, and fifty croots means they're addressing needs at every single position group. Think about their class ranking after that haul, it's gonna get a serious bump. For a program like Oklahoma State, competing in the Big 12, you sometimes have to rebuild the whole roster fast, and the portal is the only way to do it. It's not about loyalty anymore, it's about finding guys who want to be there now and can help you win immediately. Their bagman must be working overtime, but hey, if it works, it works. I get the traditional view, but sitting out a year while your rivals load up is a sure way to get left behind. Gundy is just playing the game everyone agreed to.

We just won the portal imo

Oklahoma State's transfer approach is strategic, not a disgrace. They ranked top 20 in transfer portal team score last year, which directly improved their win total. Building a program now requires adapting to the portal era to stay competitive.

We just upgraded our roster

They're just mad they can't recruit like we can. We build through development AND the portal, that's how you win championships now.

You're just bitter because your program can't keep up. We used to build through high school croots back in the 80s, but if you don't use the portal now, you get left behind.

Oklahoma State's 38% transfer portal success rate last season proves they're building smartly. Your program's outdated loyalty rhetoric ignores modern roster management realities.

TCU's program is the real disgrace

At least they're trying to win, unlike TCU who just brought in a WHOLE new team after their fluke playoff run

We won a national title with transfers like Hugh Green, so maybe your program should try recruiting better talent instead of complaining

You're just bitter because your program can't compete in the modern landscape. We built contenders in the 80s with four-year players, but the game has changed. If Oklahoma State is using the tools available to win now, more power to them. Your nostalgia won't win you any conference titles. Adapt or get left behind watching reruns of your glory days.

They won 10 games last year lmao

We're building a winner any way we can, and you're just mad we're loading up. Loyalty is to the program winning games, and our staff knows how to find ballers.

They're just mad we're winning

We’re building a winer any way we can, and you’re just mad we’re passing you by

Sounds like someone's still bitter about the '70 Orange Bowl, back when we built champions the right way
