Baylor spokesman Abner McCall accused the University of Oklahoma of luring Richard Inman away from Baylor after he announced he would ignore his Baylor letter of intent. McCall called the move a black eye for college football but said it might hasten a national letter of intent. He criticized the adults involved for moral failures while noting it reflects poorly on responsibility.
