Berry Tramel picks his All-Time OU Starting 5

[oudna]

I've only been watching since '90.

1 Buddy
2 Blake
3 Hollis
4 Minor
5 Najera

I'll have to think about my second 5. There were some jucos I really liked!

I love Hollis Price. Absolutely love him. Wonderful guy, as nice as he can be. I still think he's the most overrated player in the history of OU Basketball.

Because, really, how else could anybody rate him over Daron Oshay Blaylock?

Good grief.

I disagree 100%. I'm not sure Webster would be 3rd team if you took just the last 35 years. He was a great scorer but rebounding and defense were very very suspect. He wouldn't have started on any of Billy's best teams -- 85, 88, 89 and 90. Maybe 1984 he starts but give me Choo or DJ over Webster because they rebounded. He would have seen a lot of playing time though.

He was a 4 so in the past 35 years he has Wayman, Harvey Grant, Jackie Jones and Ace McGhee in front of him at the very least. I think you could put Ryan Minor ahead of him at the 4 too. I'm assuming BG played the 5 as well as King. So, if he played the 5, which he did not then maybe he's in the top 3 teams if considered a 5 but I think that's a stretch too.

Jeff Webster was one of the laziest players ever at OU. The guy wanted to shoot the ball and pretty much nothing else.

I'm just glad you didn't slight Chavano Rainier Hield.

That would have drawn a good grief from me.

I'm sorry, but people continue to forget how good Willie Warren was for that '08-09 team.

^^^Not even close to being in the conversation.:facepalm

1st Team:

Guards = Mookie Blaylock and Buddy Hield

Forwards = Blake Griffin and Alvin Adams

Center = Wayman Tisdale

2nd Team:

Guards = Brent Price and Tim McCalister

Forwards = Harvey Grant and Ryan Minor

Center = Stacey King

I think Tramel justifies it as 4 years over 2. But he also took Blake. So idk.

Yes, exactly. He was very lazy. Had a lot of talent though. His best year was his freshman year. Had he improved even just a little that would help his case too but he didn't.
