From Staff Reports
NORMAN -- An explosion near the University of Oklahoma's Gaylord Family-Memorial Stadium killed one person Saturday, OU officials said.

The explosion happened at the courtyard near the George Lynn Cross Hall, Botany-Microbiology Building on OU's campus, which is west of the stadium, according to Sgt. Gary Robinson of the University police department.

The explosion happened during the second quarter of Oklahoma's game against Kansas State.

After the explosion, police set up a perimeter of several blocks and made fans exit the stadium to the east.

"Wow, such a big bomb that it left no whole in the ground or broke any windows."



Who you talking to?

I know it's not me.

No discussion of bomb size ever passed these lips nor made it onto the electrons of this board.

No, I think as with Richard Jewel they are trying to pin the Antrax on that scientist.

No, I wasn't talking to you, but I was quoting your story to make my point.

This wayback tool is giving me grief, two steps forward and one step back. That's the oldest reference for him as a pledge.

Just a thought. What if he was unwittingly/unsuspectingly carrying an explosive device planted by someone else in a backpack left unattended for a short period of time and was followed and the device detonated by whomever followed? Conjecture only....

And shatter-resistant glass could survive the explosion a hundred yards away, I'd imagine. Ok. Thank you. Definitely not a detonator then?

Pretty sure you can't buy ammo on ebay. They aren't gun friendly.

Interesting that the man identified is from CO Springs a bastion of Christians and "right wing extremists"... Another McVeigh type? Seems to be the same type of situation as the Murrah bombings - right wing caucasian "busted", ignoring eyewitness reports of Middle Eastern(?) men leaving the scene in a hurry... Seriously though this is a perfect plot for using a useful idiot by the terrorists. Why? To get our government and communities to focus on patriotic Americans with guns - bust the ones who would be most likely to protect their fellow citizens.

NOTE: I have yet to read about 800 posts on this thread, but this is my initial reaction to the naming of the perpetrator. Also note, I would rather be called crazy than be correct about this type of speculation.

McVey wasn't a muslim name either. It was only when the onion was peeled did the true story emerge.

bump to your link

This kid could have been walking past some backpack when it exploded. That might explain the reports of "five others injured."

Or he could have been an unsuspecting mule.

An uninformed opinion is that the detonation device functioned, yet the main charge failed. The sequence and planned timing is still unknown. Occaisonally, the "environmentals" do not go as planned. Anybody that was on this knotheads friends and family plan can look forward to a little extra scrutiny :)

Similar to my intitial reaction. Grab a student, plant the bombs, and it looks like the student did it. Yes, I guess I qualify for a tin foil hat.

"Pretty sure you can't buy ammo on ebay. They aren't gun friendly."

I wouldn't know, I'm just repeating the quote from his frat meeting. I mail order ammo from many places, it's easy. I also do some reloads. Even a little black powder makes a big noisy boom. You can hear a single 30-06 retort a long way off. A small tube of it wouldn't be inconsistent with this story.
