Frank Booker at practice in KC

[chuckb]

I'm on RECORD! I don't post BS! Know who you are talking to!

I apologize. I should know my place!

 

[chuckb]

Chuckb, you are showing your ignorance in regard to the OUHoops message board. CoachTalk info is a good as gold.

Maybe he's right. All I said is that he should back up his statement. Otherwise, he's needlessly running down a college kid.

What's to stop any rumor monger from posting any kind of crap just to get attention if the poster is unwilling or unable to back up their statement? All I said was back it up, or stop hurting a 19 year old.

I don't see why we should just allow anyone who puts "coach" in his Internet pseudonym to post anything he wants without substantiation.

Except he's proven over the last few years that his info is good. If it was some random person, that person would be shot down. Not that difficult to understand....

...

@john_shinn: Kruger said Booker didn’t practice much this week due to academic issues so he went with Walker in the 1st half. #Sooners

OUHoops post and the fact that Booker sat the entire first half should be enough to convince anyone that Frank was in Kruger's doghouse. John Shinn said it was due to academic issues, and that fits perfectly with what I was told.

Now, to the positive. Frank played in the second half and worked his tail off on defense. Let's hope he's back in LK's good graces and he's ready to move on from here.

 

[CoachTalk]

We need frank. He brings what we need at times. Shooting and his defense is underrated.

RJ Young of SoonerScoop said basically the same thing on Tuesday, and that fact was reported here. We have multiple credible data sources saying the same thing.

I'm glad Lon was able to emphasize his point with Frank without hurting the team too much.

Especially his defense. I'm glad you pointed that out. He's more than just a shooter. He works hard on defense and hits the boards.

Nor to substantiate, if it's that obvious.

I guess anyone could change his name to something like OUBOOSTER and then post anything he wants with impunity.

If it's that obvious, it can be easily substantiated.

Again, maybe he's right, but I think it's legitimate to question unsubstantiated gossip.

Enough already! CoachTalk is a well-respected poster who brings solid information to this board. He may not be right 100% of the time, but he doesn't gossip. OUHoops posted a tweet from John Shinn that said Booker had academic issues. That fits exactly with what I heard yesterday.

Use your head a little instead of thinking about your the next move in your quest to prove how right you are. Frank was not at practice. He didn't play in the first half in tonight's game. Since he has played in every half since he recovered from his back injury, don't you find it odd that he spent the entire first half on the bench? If you don't want to believe he was in Kruger's doghouse because he wasn't going to class, that's up to you.

 

[JBaker]

Looked like Frank was probably getting the Adrian Peterson UCLA treatment.

 

[coolm]

sorry ... but I dont like someone posting that he has problems going to class unless that information has been released to the public. These kids have enough pressure and time sucks going on than to have to put up with someone who doesn't know them at all spilling stuff that they got from whatever source whether it's credible or not.

of all people WE should be the last ones that the kids hafta worry about. we should be an unwavering bastion of fandom for them.

You trolls wear me out. Academic reasons has been reported 4-5 different places INCLUDING frank himself post game.
I shared that info Tuesday.
