CTSooner has posted on Rivals. He is absolutely reliable.
 
Re: Clark has taken the offer

If this is true, I'd at least feel confident saying that a potential postseason ban would only last 1 year (there's no way Clarke would take the offer if we couldn't make the postseason in 2012-13). In any case...this makes the 2012-13 season extremely intriguing...we could be a force if Clarke gets his head on straight.

Hope it's true. But people have been saying this has been a done deal since his visit and he's yet to come out and announce it publically.

Hope he is right on this one but his reliability of late has been spotty. I'd take Sam or William over him any day when it comes to OU basketball recruiting.

I wouldn't say absolutely.

Dude throws so much stuff to the wall, some of it sticks and some of it doesn't. When Capel was still our coach, I was hoping he was correct in his postings that Capel was to be fired. He was correct.

When we were hiring a new coach, I was hoping he was wrong about us going after the guy from Memphis. He was wrong.
 
Hale has a tidbit about Rotnei Clarke (calls him Clark a bunch of times) on 24/7. I won't post any premium info other than that he echos what William Jennings recently reported - still no word from Clarke's camp.

The guy is REALLY good friends with Memphis coach Josh Pastner. I'm pretty sure he was right about us going after him. We didn't end up with Pastner but that doesn't mean he wasn't courted.

I don't think this is correct at all. I'm almost positive he was really good friends with a friend of a friend of a friend of Pastner.


And I'm not sure I believe we courted him (Pastner) at all.

Cgates is the one that was/is acquainted with Pastner; not ctsooner.
 
Re: Clark has taken the offer

This is the poster who said Capel was going around trashing the OU program to potential coaches.

And Clarke picked Butler over OU.

Ct Sooner has always been an egomaniac that makes statements his knowledge can't cash.
 
I am sure he will backtrack out of it and then go facebook stalk some more recruits and their families
 
I think he would have come to OU if the offer still existed from us.
 
I think we wanted Clarke if we had a schollie to give.

I think we had a schollie to give if we didn't lose one due to the gallon deal.

I think Clarke wanted to come if we had a schollie, but not if he had to walk on.

We weren't going to have a schollie for him, and he went in another direction. I would have to.

There is no way to know how much impact Clarke would have made, but he would have made one. We could have used him. Some think others would have been a better choice, and maybe they are right. But, if you think Clarke wouldn't have helped, then I think you are dead wrong. The kid can play and he has a very special skill that is not very common.

Good luck to Clarke, he is a dandy player and I would have loved to watch him play at OU. We will be fine without him.
