It was interesting to see how McGuinness stud Daniel Orton has narrowed his list down in recruiting. He has a top seven and it appears that it will be a very tough for either OU or Oklahoma State to land him.
He says Kentucky is at the top of his list. He likes the [...]
It’s not the selection that I would have made.
I was surprised, and not in a good way, the Seattle-Oklahoma City SuperSonics selected Russell Westbrook with the fourth pick in the NBA draft.
Was Westbrook the fourth best player in this draft? Absolutely not! Was he the best point guard left? Absolutely not!
Sure, he’s [...]
You never know just how good a recruit is going to be until you get him on campus. Or unless his name is Adrian Peterson. Everyone kind of figured he would be pretty good.
Anyway, the Oklahoma coaching staff is really excited about the commitment from Tom Wort that they received a couple of [...]
How much fun is it going to watch these two guys play college basketball in this state this year?
It was absolutely no surprise that Willie Warren and Keiton Page put on a show last night in the Faith 7 all-star basketball game in Shawnee. It would have been a big-time disappointment if it [...]
It is a late recruting batttle that now features three teams.
When Ekpe Udoh announced he was transferring from the University of Michigan, he got a lot of attention. Sure, he’s still raw, but he did lead the Big 10 Conference in blocked shots this past year. And it’s not always easy to find [...]
Can this be the same Kobe Bryant that we’ve seen in action over the last few years. And I’m not talking about what he has done on the basketball court.
There’s little doubt about the abilities of this 29-year-old superstar. There’s no doubt when his playing time is finished he will go down as one [...]
The Oklahoma coaching staff seemed confident that star recruit Joshua Jarboe would eventually get his legal problems settled and make it to Norman. The target date they thought would be somewhere around mid-June.
Well, it’s happened sooner than that.
Jarboe, the highly sought-after wide receiver from Georgia had his felony charges of bringing a [...]
There’s a Sampson back living in Norman. Of course, it’s not Kelvin.
But moving back is his son, Kellen. And he has a new job. He’s working for Jeff Capel.
Yes, he has been hired to become a graduate assistant coach for the Sooner cagers. He had planned to finish on getting his Masters [...]
We lost a great one.
And I’m not just talking about the ability of a former wishbone quarterback. Sure, in my opinion Jack Mildren was the best option signal caller Barry Switzer ever coached. He made things look so easy.
But Mildren was more than an ex-jock. He was a good guy. I was [...]
It’s going to be nothing but fun to watch what happens in the recruitment of Daniel Orton over the next few months. There’s no doubt that right now he is keeping everyone guessing.
This 6-10, 260-pound center from McGuinness High School is one of the top prep basketball players in the country. Rivals.com has [...]
