Any news on Hield

Any news in OKC or Tulsa on an expected return date for Hield?

Well, I was just watching a soonerscoop video which was filmed during practice. He was out there shooting, but seemed to still be favoring his foot. Now when I say practice I mean shoot around. But he was taking some jump shots. Not sure that gives much hope to him being ready by next week. In fact I think at the very best he could play limited minutes in the conference tournament. But I have a feeling that OU won't let him get back on the court, unless we make it o te 2nd weekend of the tourney. Merely speculation on my part or probably anyone else not on the OU training staff.
 
Hale reported a few days ago that Buddy will be back for the conference tournament, and it might be as early as the TCU game. We need him as soon as possible, but not at the expense of injuring his foot again and seeing it turn into a lingering problem down the road a ways.
 
Pregame buddy has no cast and is walking fine. Coaches said he worked out this morning and it went well. He is out today has a chance to play v wvu or tcu. Will be back soon
 
I'd say play him only for a few minutes in our last regular season game to get him back in a bit of rhythm then proceed cautiously in the tournament. I doubt you could slow him down unless you take him out of the game.

Aint that the truth. Hell he was jogging in to the locker room at halftime clapping and chomping at the bit to get back in!
