My Uncle went to the FF in 88. I went in 2002. He said we were the least-attended fanbase in KC and I agreed that we were way outnumbered in Atlanta. But the Buddy team seemed to galvanize the fanbase. The crowd for KU in Norman was the wildest I'd experienced since early Kelvin. By all...

I disagree. I think it had a massive carry-over that still lingers. Our 88 and 02 FF squads were followed immediately by really good teams that sustained the momentum. Lon's program imploded. 20 losses is still a shocking thing to type and hard to believe that it happened here. I don't...

I think it was incredibly short-sighted not to offer the younger Forsythe. We'll pay for the Nwankos and the Ataks of the world, but we won't pay for the younger brother of a current player? I question that decision. Of course, with this staff, there are a great many decisions that I question.

I just did a brief bit of research: We lost our last nine games of the 2010 season. We lost eight in a row at the tail end of the 2011 campaign. It took a three-pointer at the horn in Stillwater and a massive comeback against Cincy to prevent losing our last eight in 2024. Then, with the...

The amount of excuse-making for Moser just floors me. It's a testament to how far this program has been allowed to fall.

"All I Need is a Miracle" from the MIKE + THE MECHANICS LP. My personal favorite is "Silent Running". <---Child of the 80s.

Since winning the 2003 Tournament in Dallas, and capping off the three-peat (I WAS THERE), our record in the postseason conference tournament is a wretched 10-21. From 97-2003, it was 15-4. Kelvin made serious hay in the Conference tourney. Played us into the field in 97 and definitely helped...

I've been a Sonics fan since I was a little kid. When the Blazers drafted Oden I danced across the room. That dude looked to be 45 in driver's ed. Of course I didn't realize just how nefarious the dealings had become behind closed doors. A little part of me dies every time my wife goes to...

I readily admit that I don't know the intricacies of scouting for NBA talent. There are red flags galore surrounding Peterson if you care to look. I feel like there are 2-3 guards like him coming out every year. It's what's the between the ears that separates the dudes at that level. On the...

I've been on board with that sentiment for quite some time. I'm not wavering.

1. This is from memory. The guy who told me this story passed away two years ago. The Sooners were heading to Hawaii for the Diamondhead Classic (something like that. Same tournament we won Buddy's senior year) and had a layover at LAX. Big Time wanders off and then falls asleep somewhere in...

M'Baye got T'd up for giving the horns down and a 22-point lead with five minutes to go was cut in half in less than a minute. One of their guards hit a circus shot off the glass at the horn to send the game to OT and then we got boatraced. It was an absolutely biblical collapse, and I never...

Hey, Krusty! Can't wait to read your in-depth study on the festering turd of a season our hoopsters are putting on the floor. You've always been one to really crunch the data.

Because a ****-ton of our fans have absolutely zero ties to the University of Oklahoma. If you dropped 95% of our base at the Target in UNP without a phone they'd have one hell of a time finding Owen Field.
