And, you will continue to find that I will be very negative to those who continue to post things like we see on this thread:
---one of you believes that Amber Ramirez would start over Gabbi who just happens to be on the national team right now while Ramirez is where? What a negative statement towards an OU starter, someone who has given us a year already.
---another believes that Wilson is better than Dungee which is concurred by two others. Of course, Dungee has spent a summer on the U-16 team while Wilson has done exactly what?
Again, this constant negativity towards OU players and commits and lament that we aren't signing some kid that some guru thinks is a hot shot will be met with continued negativity.
As I stated, I will make my opinions on each known after the letters-of-intent are signed. I would prefer not to criticize someone that Sherri might actually want.
If you feel that way then direct it to that person like I am directing this to you. Do not bash everyone because they give their opinions on certain players. They give their opinions just as you give yours.
Who cares who is better than who. That is Their opinion! Do I think Wilson is better than Dungee? Yes I do. That does not mean I am taking anything away from Dungee, she is still a great player.
Don't compare players based on accolades. Who Cares If someone made the USA team or whatever! That does not determine how good you are for the 1,000th time! How do you know if Wilson doesn't even want to be apart of USA basketball? Not everyone attends those tryouts. Some like to let their game speak for itself which Wilson is clearly doing and hasn't even stepped foot in the USA gym.
Everyone has their own opinions about players, all this hype about players and rankings and USA accolades is pure non-sense. I could name a handful of Oklahoma players and Non Oklahoma players that are far much better than people listed on rankings and such.
Don't compare a player based on accolades and their hype. I bet if Brice Calip was "Ranked" This board would be all over her. Pathetic. I don't buy into the ranking and accolade crap. I know good talent when I see it.
It's just a shame that we tend to loose all this talent right in the state because we are to busy chasing rankings and accolades. If Calip is really a Arkansas lean then it is still pitiful that we loose yet another gem to an out of state school.
I've said it once and I'll say it again. OU is not every Oklahoma girls Dream School! You still have to
Recruit! them just as if they were any other out of state recruit! Give them a reason to come here!!
We tend to Use our Oklahoma players as "Last resorts". If we loose out On a "Top" recruit THEN we turn to the Oklahoma kids like "Hey I've got a schlorship for you ". I wouldn't take that either! There is no genuine sincerity With Coach Coale and Oklahoma Recruiting unless it is their dream school and I will continue to stick by my word.
I'm not Bashing OU or Coach Coale in any way, I am just stating facts and my opinion.
This program Is a sleeping giant if we could just get all the right pieces. Right Now I would say it's a pretty fair foundation for the future but it still needs to be taken up a notch to be considered "Elite" and it starts with Recruiting!
