The RJ Young Show

Lincoln Riley and his coaching staff received raises. Everybody deserved one except Mike Stoops.

The Oakland Athletics announced Kyler Murray will sign Friday, and he’ll forgo senior year at Oklahoma. Murray was selected No. 9 overall in the 2018 MLB Draft. He'll signed for around the slotted value for that pick: $4.76 million. This is a replay of the Wednesday live show at 6 p.m. CT every week. Remember to RATE and REVIEW the podcast on iTunes and SoundCloud.

Dennis Dodd talked with me about Oliver Luck's move to the XFL and how Kyler Murray's baseball money effects the NCAA model. Dodd is national college football writer at CBS Sports and one of the most respected commentators in the sport.

I asked former Big 12 correspondent and Wendell Barnhouse to explain to me why Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby thumbed his nose at us Oklahoma when it came to 11 a.m. kickoffs, and I received and education in TV contracts and conference revenue.

In this replay of the live show on Wednesday nights at 6 P.M. CT, I asked Mama Savage to join in to talk about Kyler Murray's decision to play college football for one more season and professional baseball for the rest of his life.

I had fun talking about Kyler Murray's decision to play college football after signing MLB contract for $4.76 million with the Oakland Athletics who drafted him No. 9 overall in the 2018 MLB Draft. I spoke with Bob Frantz and Jim Kushlan on the Bob Frantz Extravaganza on Tuesday afternoon on ESPN Radio in Ohio. Jim was kind enough to send me the full audio.

I spoke with Bleacher Report lead NFL scout Doug Farrar about offensive and defensive schemes for the WOOSAH podcast. He didn't pull any punches when I asked him about what he saw from Mike Stoops' defense in 2017. "What I see is a lot of people getting pushed around."

This is a live stream replay of Wednesday night's live show where we discussed the Sooners' women's softball team, Mike Stoops' burner Twitter account and just how special OU football players are.

This is a parody of Drake's "God's Pan" called "Mike's Plan." Get out of the sun and catch this SHAAADE.

What’s up, kinfolk?! I am not on a step mill. I spoke with 2019 recruits Jamal Morris and EJ Ndoma-Ogar about their recent commitments. Both of them revealed some facts I had no idea about. I’m excited to share those with you. I also got some phone-time with 2020 corner Kelee Ringo, who you’ll want to keep an eye on as his recruitment cranks up. —11:13 EJ NDOMA-OGAR INTERVIEW —26:09 JAMAL MORRIS INTERVIEW

Oklahoma Sooners signee DaShaun White was headed home from schoo when he answered my phone call. He needed to pack. He needed to prepare to travel north to Norman, Oklahoma. White’s not traveling to party. He’s not traveling to pick out a place to stay. He’s not going to catch a Sooners softball game. He’s traveling to get mental reps. “I gotta learn this playbook,” he said. Also, Brian Bosworth is his favorite linebacker.

There are folks who are talking trash about Trae Young making the decision to join the NBA Draft in June. Those folks miss the point of what Trae Young accomplished as a Sooner. He was gift to the Sooner Nation, and it goes against our morals and principles to negatively recruit him.

Oklahoma Sooners quarterback commit Spencer Rattler is the highest-rated quarterback commit the Sooners have earned since 2005. He is the linchpin in a 2019 OU recruiting class that is ranked among the top 10 in the country. However, with the spring game fast approaching, I caught up with Rattler for an in-depth interview that ranges from what he thinks about incoming quarterback Tanner Mordecai to which 2019 recruit he’d like to see become a Sooner.
