[SoonerTraveler]

I hesitate to update this once again, as this month of May has seen some changes. Akolda Manyang, we hardly knew you. Austin Grandstaff, we never knew you. Welcome aboard, Jordan Shepherd.

Has it been reported that AK is for sure off the team? Thanks

I haven't heard anything specifically. With football, soonersports is pretty good about immediately updating the roster and removing guys who have been booted or transferred. I checked basketball roster, and Manyang is still there, but so is Grandstaff.

In any case, I think there may be administrative reasons that Manyang would be left on the roster even if he's not with the team.

Sounds like Lon just confirmed that AK is moving on from the team in an interview on KREF.

It would not shock me if they got in on another transfer if at all possible. Nothing wrong with saving those three schollies for next year...nothing wrong with that at all. Would definitely like to see them add a SR/grad transfer if possible...but won't hurt my feelings if they don't.

Just heard it. I guess that's that.
