U40: Is the decision on Maikkula's backup tearing apart the Scoop staff?

from Oklahoma Sooners Unofficial 40 · host SoonerScoop.com

Another day over 100 degrees, but nothing stops the Unofficial 40. We are one week closer to kickoff, and at this point, any college football will do the trick. The guys hit the studio with plenty to discuss, and possibly an egregiously long discussion over who will be the Sooners' center with Jake Maikkula's timeframe uncertain. Josh and Parker have been hitting the recruiting trail hard while George plays with his new favorite football toy, and to be fair we are all a little jealous. Oklahoma's win total saw a slight bump and maybe the hype around the receiver room has something to do with it? Probably not. There is plenty to watch out for before camp closes, speaking of watch, Carey has turned George into a watch guy now...Eddie couldn't care less.
