Okie,

The article brings both parties behavior into question. Having said that, him cold-cocking the girl is simply unacceptable and he should have been booted from the team imho.

Having acknowledged that, you clearly have an axe to grind here even if you are "just sayin". You come across as a Pokes lover and that's bitter from having been on the receiving end of many, many azz-kickings from the Sooners.

I really do get that. I hate BSU and USC for similar reasons...just not enough to create and keep threads alive kicking those schools in the nutz.


Dave

p.s. I was born in Oklahoma and still count myself a Sooner fan in case that wasn't abundantly clear.

iddave . . . My only point is that Mixon should have been immediately dismissed from the Sooners' team just like Mike Gundy did with (current KC Chiefs star) Tyreek Hill, who hit his pregnant girlfriend in the stomach while a student at oSu.

I grew up in Oklahoma a Sooners fan . . . I didn't switch allegiance until after I had my degree from oSu. As a matter of fact, I have quite a bit in common with 90% of the Oklahoma Sooners football fans . . . . neither one of us has spent any time in a classroom in Norman OK! grin

Sports Illustrated: OU running back Joe Mixon will get drafted

by Brooke Pryor
February 10, 2017

[Linked Image]

A day after Sports Illustrated's Chris Burke predicted OU running back Joe Mixon would be taken late in the third round of the 2017 NFL draft, MMQB's Albert Breer also projected that Mixon would get drafted.

In his notebook on the depth of the 2017 draft, Breer writes that a team will likely select Mixon because other than the altercation with the parking attendant, he's mostly stayed out of trouble since he punched Amelia Molitor in Pickleman's Cafe in 2014. He also notes that Mixon would likely be a first-round pick if there wasn't a video of the incident.

“It needs to be the right market, a team that can handle the onslaught, the right PR staff, because you’ll have to weather the storm,” one area scout assigned to the Sooners told Breer. “But the guy the Chiefs drafted [Tyreek Hill], Joe Mixon isn’t half the d-----bag that guy was. You’d have to search to find people that don’t like him. Maybe the parking-lot attendant. Everyone there loves him. And I believe them.”

Two weeks ago, MMQB's Emily Kaplan wrote an in-depth column on Mixon's NFL prospects and came to the same conclusion. NFL evaluators at the Senior Bowl told Kaplan that many teams believed he could follow in the steps of former OSU wide receiver Hill.

According to Kaplan's reporting, Mixon will likely get taken in the third or fourth round.

So, at the end of the day, all the video of him cold cocking the girl in the restaurant did was confirm his ability to compete with the other thugs in the NFL... SMH...

No question of the success of the sooner football team. There's also no question of the cheating involved in getting those mythical national championships.

We had a situation with Tyreek Hill a couple of years ago. You remember Tyreek don't you? He's the guy who ran back the punt after big game bob took the penalty in Q4 of Bedlam. He punched his pregnant girlfriend and was dismissed immediately. One of the differences in OSU and the land thieves.

NFL Draft: Bengals select Joe Mixon in second round

by Brooke Pryor Published: April 28, 2017 9:21 PM CDT

the NFL Draft on Friday night. [PHOTO BY BRYAN TERRY, THE OKLAHOMAN]




NORMAN — Joe Mixon, a player with first-round talent and potentially
undraftable character concerns, was taken by the Cincinnati Bengals
in the second round with the No. 46 overall pick Friday night.

In the months ahead of the NFL Draft, the Bengals did their homework
on Mixon, and coach Marvin Lewis believes his new player is capable
of moving forward from the 2014 incident that left a female OU
student crumpled on the floor of Pickleman's Cafe.

“I don't know who isn't disgusted with what they saw,” Lewis said
after the Bengals selected Mixon. “But it was one day in the young
man's life. He has a chance to move forward and write a script from
there on.”

Mixon, the fourth running back off the board in 2017, is the first
Sooners running back picked in the draft since DeMarco Murray in
2011, and the earliest Sooner running back selected since Adrian
Peterson was taken with the seventh pick of the 2007 draft.

Though Mixon has first-round talent, there was plenty of speculation
about where he would go in the draft after his lawyers in December
released the video of the 2014 punch, a video that ESPN aired
immediately after Mixon was selected.

According to an anonymous survey conducted by ESPN NFL guru Adam
Schefter, only four teams said they would consider drafting Mixon.

Mixon was not invited to the NFL Combine — a result of the incident
that happened before his freshman season — but his performance both
at OU's Pro Day last month and during individual workouts and
interviews helped make an impact.

Mixon said he was open and honest with teams during the interview
process.

“I don't have anything to hide,” Mixon said after Pro Day. “Everybody
done seen everything. Everybody knows what's going on. At the end of
the day, just sitting down in front of them, looking them in the eye,
have them get a feel for me.

“That's just what it is.”

It wasn't just the 2014 incident that led to questions about his

character.

Mixon was suspended for last season's game at Iowa State after a run-
in with a parking attendant.

But there have been few questions about Mixon's talent.

After sitting out the 2014 season due to suspension, Mixon ran for
2,027 yards and 17 touchdowns and caught 65 passes for 894 yards and
nine touchdowns over the past two seasons.

Last season, Mixon set OU single-season records for all-purpose yards
(2,331) and all-purpose yards per game (194.3).

Cincinnati's history with players' off-the-field baggage combined with
the small market could be a good fit for Mixon.

“Cincinnati has had a history of Marvin Lewis and his guys, opening
their arms up and saying, ‘We can handle those guys, we have the
right infrastructure,'" NFL Network analyst Mike Mayock said on the
network broadcast. "Me personally, he's not on my board. As soon as I
see that video, he's off.

“But if you want to hear about the football player, the football
player is a top-15 pick in any draft. He's 228 pounds and ran a 4.5
at his pro day. He can return kickoffs. He had six runs of over 40
yards, and he split time with Samaje Perine. What I'm trying to say,
he's pretty darn special as a football player.”

He probably thinks, "Knocked her up?".

Are you "just saying" again Okie?


Your pain must run very, very deep from those Sooner azz-kickings.

I'm glad no one judges the man I am by the boy I was.

That said, he gets no slack moving forward.

Watched the video again since this thread resurfaced

If the NFL doesn't fit I think Joe has a future in mma

I believe he could whip a Rhonda Rousey, the Holm girl? I dunno


Hey joe when a lil blonde gal says " I wish you'd hit this". That ain't what she means

He's a boomer sooner I reckon


I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Problem is: the girl could not win in either criminal or now civil court (that lawsuit was settled amicably last week, and from the sounds of how it worked out the two are still friends that converse regularly. The "settlement" involved the two of them sitting down together privately alone and talking over how things have worked out).

She verbally provoked him directly, and then she hit him first. He responded to her in kind. She had no case.
