    GAME 2 - OKLAHOMA (1-0) @ #21 GONZAGA (1-0) (Spokane) 9:30pm CST on ESPN2

    Agree for the most part. I wouldn't say everything is flat-out bad basketball. In the second half of each game, I think the team has played pretty well. In each game, the movement and passing were better in the second half, defense was tighter, and we got out in transition more. That is how...

    GAME 2 - OKLAHOMA (1-0) @ #21 GONZAGA (1-0) (Spokane) 9:30pm CST on ESPN2

    I think he means April, as in the first weekend and Monday night in April, in Indianapolis. As in the case in 2015-2016, would rather beat a non-conference opponent handily that weekend vs. a win in December only to lose by 44 in April. Still hurts.

    agree with you on the deep breath and team being more athletic than any we've ever had, but... Yeah, we stepped up our NIL game in a major way, but so did everyone else. Evidently, we are still 14th or 15th in the SEC in NIL funding. Better talent, but still going to have to play hard, play...

    it's college athletics in 2025. not just an OU problem

    2025-26 Season

    My understanding is that regardless of the sport, the scholarship counts toward the first sport played during the academic year. So basically impossible to count against baseball if they play any other sport. Plus, Blair was also a top 75 player in basketball (high as top 60) so he would be...

    2026 recruiting

    Foster must be a Jay Z fan and Capel won him over.

    2026 recruiting

    Fears would not have come here had Los and Otega been here.

    2026 recruiting

    Um, Jeremiah worked out okay for his time here. IMO, Fears, his success, and his draft pick will pay more dividends than Los and Oweh both on the court and for future recruits.

    OU hoops trivia related to our recent football opponent

    Yep, I was there. Skipped school to go all day. The Mailman and La Tech were also there in Tulsa, as well as Johnny Orr and Iowa St. From my memory, OU still had a significant home court advantage. It was a tight game, where we struggled in putting them away, but Wayman went off that game and...

    New ARENA as part of entertainment District

    I've been a donor, Tip In Club member, and had season tickets since the 2002 season, and we make the drive from Tulsa to attend. That includes games against Kansas, Texas, OSU, Alabama, Tennessee, NIT against St Bonaventure, and Wednesday night December match-ups against Alcorn State and Coppin...

    New ARENA as part of entertainment District

    Love the thought of a new arena, but from that sketch, man, going to miss the parking and access to LNC. Just from dimensions, looks tight on parking, and one main entrance/exit will be a b!tch.

    in each of the questions/examples you listed, the value for the services or item is determined between the buyer/potential buyers and the seller. Not by a disinterested third party

    Football question

    I would agree with Boulder that Soonerscoop does not sunshine pump. A couple of their guys are actually quite cynical. Almost like they've been burned by the hopium and aren't buying it anymore. Kind of like most of us, I suppose. I also agree there should be a bit of concern with...

    Football question

    Wichita- I don't know about free boards, as I get my content on SoonerScoop and OUInsider, and Drumm/Thune's board. But it seems like there are reporters (George Stoia) and OU beat writers who report the same info on Twitter that they put on the pay sites. It's actually a common complaint from...

    2026 recruiting

    Said it before and bears repeating... We can all debate Moser's ability to manage a game, substitutions, develop players, and draw up an inbounds play. All legitimate gripes. But man, no one can argue his ability to sell his energy, vision, and OU to HS recruits and families. He's been in on...
