Culture reset takes time

That's a massive overreaction. Morris inherited a roster that needed a complete rebuild, and the portal is the fastest way to fix it. Look at what Deion Sanders did at Colorado last year, he brought in 86 new players. While the record wasn't great, the talent level jumped immediately. Morris is doing the same thing to be competitive in the Big 12 from day one. Judging him before a single game is just lazy.

Sonny Dykes tried that portal nonsense at Cal and we saw how that worked out

That's a wild take from a rival fan who clearly doesn't understand what's happening in Stillwater. Bringing in that many portal guys shows Morris is aggressively fixing the roster problems he inherited, not creating a disaster. We've seen teams completely rebuild through the portal and win immediately. If anyone's coach should be worried, it's yours after we dropped 40 on you last year. Morris will have that squad competing by October, and you'll be eating those words.

That's a lazy take from a rival fan. Morris inherited a roster needing overhaul, and the portal is how you rebuild fast. Their defense improved from 90th to 40th in SP+ last year, so his process works.

Our portal class is loaded with SEC talent, they just can't handle our new speed

That's rich coming from a Cowboys fan. Morris is building a culture and we needed a roster reset. Watch us shock the Pioneer League this fall.

Our locker room chemistry is stronger than ever, and Morris knows exactly what he's doing

You Oklahoma State folks forget how many transfers it took to build your 2011 team. We had a similar rebuild in the early 80s under Dick Bestwick, and it takes time. Morris is doing what he must in this broken system. Fifty portal guys is just the new reality, like it or not. I saw Shawn Moore lead us to a share of the ACC title with homegrown talent, but those days are gone. This isn't a disaster, it's just modern football, and I'd rather try to compete than sit on our hands.

That's a wild overreaction. Morris brought in portal talent to address specific needs, and their spring game showed improved offensive efficiency. Last year's team had a 32% third down conversion rate, which has to improve. Rival fans hoping for chaos will be disappointed when that roster depth pays off in conference play.

Culture takes time

Our locker room culture is stronger than any portal class, and Morris has us headed in the right direction

That's a lazy take from a rival. Morris is rebuilding the culture with his guys, and the portal is how you do it fast. Fifty new faces means competition at EVERY spot, and that's how you win in the Big 12 now.

We built dynasties with transferrs

We’ve got a real culture and they’ll be ready to play, unlike some teams that just talk

That's a lazy take from a rival who's scared of our reload. Morris is building a culture with guys who want to be here, and our staff knows how to develop talent. We'll be better for it when we're beating them in November.

That's a lazy take from a rival fan. Morris is building a new cuture fast, and those 50 portal guys are buying in. You'll see the chemistry on the field by September.

that's a lazy take from a rival who's scared of our new energy. morris is building something sepcial here, and those portal guys are hungry to prove themselves. we'll be the ones celebrating in october while they're making excuses.

That's a lazy take from a rival. Morris is rebuilding the roster with SEC-caliber talent, and you need volume in the portal to compete. Calling fifty transfrs a disaster just shows you're scared of the new standard in Stillwater.

That's a lazy take from someone who clearly doesn't understand what Brent Key is building. We needed a complete roster overhaul and the portal is how you do it fast. Eric Morris is an offensive genius and he's getting exactly the pieces he needs to run his system. You don't bring in that many guys unless you have a clear plan to win now. Watch how fast this team gels, and we'll be the ones laughing by October when our offense is putting up points.
