Official Gramps' Memorial Eternal OT Thread

Empire Slice in the Paseo District (kinda near downtown) is fairly decent and has a good selection of brews.

Hideaway Pizza is a chain and the nearest to downtown is near the OU Med complex. (I assume that's where you're staying) It's actually damn good for "chain" pizza and also has a decent selection of local beers (I'd avoid the Kolsch though, not that great). The Hogzilla pizza is amazing.

Not a pizza place, but Pearl's Crabtown at the edge of Bricktown can be avoided. Long waits and the food is meh.

A great Italian spot is a 15 minute drive from downtown. A place called Venezia in Del City. You won't go away hungry and the food is awesome.

When are you coming out? I have to work next weekend or SSC and I would take you to dinner.
Btw, appreciate that

I enjoyed a stroll thru Swampgas this morning. They are D O N E with Billy and rumors say some BMDs already ponied up the $26M buyout. And they apparently want to make a run at Joey Freshwater.

There's a bunch of FF turds that think Kiff would jump ship in a heartbeat to UF.

Not even stopping to think the big money at Ole Miss would counter any offer he gets.

He’s the obvious target for them to pursue I think but Lane has it pretty good at Ole Miss and they would pay to keep him for sure. And there are other plenty of beautiful coeds to keep him busy at ole miss too

I think a bunch of people are of the same mind as Bammers with Dabo some years ago. They're gonna take a coach that's already building a program that's winning to start over a rebuilding process at a school that's at least two to five years away from being competitive? Not that Bama would have needed to be rebuilt, but UF and FSU will.

Kiff is doing great on the NIL, transfer portal and recruiting efforts at Ole Miss. And with the lack of Saban, there's a power void in the old SEC West. In honesty, there's really only three coaches that are moving to fill the void in the SEC left by his retirement, Heupel, Sark and Kiffin. Smart is already established and is the "heir apparent" to Saban. But with the 12 team playoff and any given Saturday, other coaches have the chance to move into the driver's seat.

And no, I don't think DeBoer is "that guy" in regards to being the next Saban. Right now, he's playing with Saban's talent. Let's see where he's at next year or year after.

Regardless, I don't see Kiffin leaving Ole Miss just because Florida or FSU comes open. First, there's a LOT of money at Ole Miss that can (and will) pay to keep him as HC. Second, he has a distinct lack of competition except the coaches I named already. Third, he's already starting building the program he wants and is winning. There is nothing Florida or FSU is going to offer that would change the above facts.

Whom ever took the Bama job was going to face ridiculous expectations. And yeah this far DeBoar doesn’t seem to carry that bling. He seems competent but he was handed a program loaded with talent and money behind it for now he just needs to keep it out of the ditch

And yeah UF is a full blown dumpster fire requiring complete rebuild. They are willing to fund it though I’d guess if they can find the right guy. But Kiffin would be an absolute moron to leave Ole Miss whom he has built into a powerhouse program and has excellent financial backing to keep the party going. Ole Miss will be in the playoff this year and with the right matchups could make a deep run.

Apparently Kiffin has matured a lot in the last few years, and he's certainly smart enough by now to know about jumping ship and burning bridges. I'll never understand why he was stupid enough to give up Layla though.
