In their week 4 "Weekly Watch", ESPN writes about how consistent Tony has been over the season, in a little blurb. Here is what they had to say:

ESPN said:
• Tony Crocker, Sr., G, Oklahoma: So much of the preseason hype at OU was about Willie Warren and deservedly so. But Crocker has been more consistent. He had one game earlier this month when he went for 16 points and 16 boards in a win over Arkansas. Last week, Crocker scored 33 points (29 in the first half) and grabbed 13 boards in a win over Centenary and then followed that up with another double-double (12 points and 10 boards) in a road win at Utah.
 
IF (and its a big if due to Crock's history of inconsistency) Tony continues to play at this level (hitting 3s, finishing drives, lockdown defense, strong on the glass) then I think he has a shot at the second round. Sounds crazy, but he is actually a much better athlete than folks give him credit for. He will test really well (vert, wingspan, quickness).

How cool would that be to see him get drafted!
 
Really glad to see Tony getting some props. I was really hoping this would be the year he would be able to put it all together and so far that seems like a real possibility.
