Switzer was a fucking prick. Probably still is. I hated his ass in college and even more when he coached the Cowbags. That team won the super bowl..yet he got a ring with Jerral..they did it "their way".

Can't help but think if he had a coach like Bear Bryant, Lou Holtz, Tom Osborne or Joe Paterno (pre-scandal, obviously), his college career may have turned out much better.
Switzer definitely knew X's and O's and how to win, but some younger players need more than that, and Dupree was one of them. In this regard Switzer and his jerk attitude failed completely.

If a football player can't get alone with Switzer, who was a players coach, then who can you get along with?
-
1:02 Did he just say "poo-pooed" in a serious news segment?

Dupree was a big baby.

Dupree thought that it was going to be easy when he was recruited to OU then found that he had to work harder when he suited up and sadly believed he didn't have to do anything kind of like how Mike Tyson stopped training before he was knocked out by Buster Douglas. Dupree was a TO a player who only cared about himself and not the team.

Combination of factors and it could certainly be seen that the Coach screwed him. He was also pretty immature when he came to OU, but it is up to the coaching staff to see this and help some of these young men grow up. I was the sports photographer for one of the Oklahoma City Television Stations at the time. I shot most of the video in the story. I spent the week after he disappeared in MIssissippi with a reporter talking with his friends.
Didn't like Switzer too much.

It might be interesting to look at the number of Hamstring injuries that were occurring on the Sooner team during this period. I am not sure we ever reported it but I can remember we talked about it and wondered what it was about the training that hurting rather than helping in this regard. I believe most of the running backs in this period experienced Ham String injuries and that's tough to fix. I stand open to correction on this observation.
