Calvin Newell

No problem, thats what im here for when you're away lol.

Did he get coupled up with Washington? Man, if we get him, Thompson, Washington, and by some miracle Gallon back, we might be a better and deeper team.

Have we offered washington? I thought capel was going to wait and see him schrimmage or something again before offering him?

You guys really think other coaches are wasting their time negative recruiting us right now? I think they all have bigger fish to fry than OU at this point in the game. Every recruit we are on knows exactly where the program stands right now. To think that Self, Drew, Cal, and others are worried more about OU than each other is kind of ridiculous at the moment.

I did not see Washington with him today but I assume they were around each other this weekend and maybe Washington left today. They both played with the guys in pickup this week and both meshed very well.

FWIW, a poster on OU Insider said that his brother talked to Calvin yesterday at the Embassy Suites. Said that Calvin told him he was in on a basketball visit. Coming down to OU and West Virginia. I don't know if it is credible or not, but I hope it is.

Also said he mentioned that OU was probably his favorite at this time.

A team in the FF vs a team who didn't dance? I don't like those odds very much.

With ZERO point guards on campus, any signee would be looking at being the likely starter and playing major minutes. This might be enough to swing Calvin our way. We can only hope!!

Way to send out those positive vibes.

Kids like Newell who are still looking for a school this late in the recruiting process, usually end up where they are comfortable with the coaches and the players, and where they have the best opportunity to contribute right away.

Word is he enjoyed his visit and bonded with our coaches and players. That's one positive for the good guys in crimson and cream. Can you think of a school that offers a better chance to come in and play right away than OU? I sure can't.

I could be wrong, but I don't believe WVU making the FF will factor into Newell's decision all that much. If he believes in himself and what he can do as a point guard, and he feels good about his visit to Norman, I believe he'll pick OU.
