   Oh, I am so proud to be in a state where “bashing Oklahoma” means running this story of a young mans murder at the top of the page! Has everyone in Austin lost their souls? What a bunch of rednecks!

   I’m not sure what part of tragic makes you think he was being mocked. The kid was taken way too early in a horrible crime.

   WELL, what is the first two words of the story? “Oklahoma Commit ” followed by his name and the fact he was murdered. Why even put in the headlines he was Oklahoma Commit? Did they put where he went to high school? Where he went to Church? No,,, they want to point out that “ok, OU got hurt today…yeah for our team”…

   No I pointed out that he was committed to Oklahoma because he was committed to OU and this is a college football website. Please move on, you’ve tried to cheapen this kid’s death and make it a rivalry issue when it isn’t.
