I very much dislike OSU basketball because

[Big Old Booger]

-The Asian guy on the left in that pic, for his stupid signs he had that were popular on soonerfans' Fark board
-The classic "Noise Pot" game that closed out GIA in 2000. I can still see Heskett putting a finger to his mouth, telling everyone "shh..."
-Byron Eaton
-Their stupid vertigo-inducing camera angle (it's gotten better, but still)

I used to hate phatty phat phat (Byron EATon). He was as annoying as Doug Gottlieb with his (EATon's) flops.

Dougie used to wear the knee socks and the thing is, he was a horrible free throw shooter and outside shooter. Sampson used to not even guard him and forced him to take the shot because we would use who would normally guard Gottlieb to double on somebody else. Dougie hardly ever made us pay...that was a big reason we won the game spit cup game in 2000.

Brooks Thompson was just annoying because he was very good and he knew it. He talked so much trash...I always wanted to punch him, of course we are about the same age.

Sean...he wasn't as flamboyant as Dougie backwards pants Gottlieb, and wasn't as cocky as Thompson, but something about him as a player I just couldn't take. I loved when we beat them in GIA back in 93 after they had just beaten us in Norman. The look on Sean's face was priceless. :woot

- Its always the refs fault

- Kirkland did Travies dirty work by being a thug and then Travie gave him the boot

- Andre Riley punches people

:ez-laugh:

Besides travis ford trying to humiliate ray penn last night by yelling "great pass ray, great pass ray" after one of his turnovers, and besides ford yelling "you arent allowed to shoot" at one of his players in the all-college this year, just to embarrass him, and besides travis ford telling obi muenelo that he was going to kill his whole family and make him watch last year, here are the reasons i hate osu basketball.

1. mo baker
2. eddie sutton - putting multiple schools on probation
3. sean sutton - not doing much better
4. travis ford - constantly showing his little-man syndrome
4b keaton page - ford little turd clone
5. byron eat-a-ton - eating a ton
6. byron masturbate-a-ton houston - well, you know
7. david monds and mario boggan
8. marshall moses and matt pilgrim fighting/crying on the bench last year
9. terrel harris - how many times did he get arrested?
10 marcus dove - the most overated defender of all time
11 jameson curry - man they have had a lot of thugs over the years
12 john lucas - his dad played tennis, his dad played tennis, we get it
13 doug gottlieb - stole roomates credit card, kicked out of n. Dame
14 cheyne gadson – public intoxication and resisting an officer
15 randy rutherford – bomb threat
16 tony allen – public intoxication and resisting an officer, etc etc
17 jason keep – dui and 2 battery counts for punching his girlfriend
18 jack marlow – multiple dui’s
19 glendon alexander - stole 150,000 dollars and 2 world series rings from pro baseball player, derek bell and attempted to cash a scholarship check that was supposed to be for ivan mcfarlin worth 1,200 dollars

i guess if i had to have a #20 it would just be this face:eddie187_jpg_xs:

[DenverSooner]

- "Cowboy Up" sounds inappropriate to me

It is code for where are the sheep.

Yes you do.

I dislike bpu(osu) because

Matt Pilgrim loves raypenn

 

[NMSooner'80]

1. The aforementioned campaign in the Oklahoma media to negate the records and to name OSU the "better basketball school" despite OU's 34-game lead in the all-time series.

2. Guys like Randy Wright, who played for them in my day. He was a guard from Yukon whose daddy was a big-bucks booster and who wound up getting them in NCAA trouble for football. Wright used to play OU and the far-superior Raymond Whitley like he was the second coming of Jerry West. Yet you could put other Big 8 guards in front of him, and Wright would just disappear.

3. The whole one-game season mentality they had in the mid-80's. They couldn't beat anyone else with a pulse, for a time, except for OU in the original Pantry of Doom. Usually OU was destroying them in Norman but losing the rematch to some 9-win OSU team that played miles over its head.

4. Just a sense of disrespect that I sensed from their fans at the All College that year when OU beat Tulsa in the first game. Of course, the orange crowd was rooting hard for Tulsa, and they seemed to have this group attitude that OU basketball wasn't worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as the mighty Cowpokes. Then, three months later, OU got to claim a league title in the regular season, and the overhyped Pukes finished third.

5. I also resent how Eddie was such a deity and any OU coach was deemed the villain in the OKC media's eyes. It further annoys me that one of our local sports talk guys is an OU grad but loves Sutton and thinks OU basketball has always been a middle-of-the-conference-pack team that's well behind OSU in tradition. ????

- The thunder are closer to Norman than Stillwater

- Every year is "the year of the cowboy"

- Kelvin didn't find the Graham twins (could you imagine what he could have turned those two into on the defensive end? sheesh).

Urban legend has it that Ted Owens was going to bring the Grahams by to meet with the OU staff but they were "too busy" that particular day so they skipped Norman and went directly to Stillwater. They may have met with Scott Sutton at ORU after that but it was probably a done deal by then.

 

[Jeopardude]

-- their mascot is an aimless drifter.

-- they somehow boo with a hick accent. Seriously, they as a group make boo a two syllable word. BUH-EWWWWWW!

-- Their uni numbers/names are in italics. That is corny.

-- Eddie Sutton must have had an enormous pen to sign that court.

Well I'll be an monkey's uncle. That's almost as bad as smellsofbourban telling RW Mcquarters to remove his hat while in his office.

I heard they actually just took a snapshot of the elementary school fence that he peed on and used that as the base model for the court sig.

This is something I've always wondered and haven't really decided. If OU and OSU have to split the season series, would you rather OU win in Stillwater and lose at home or vice versa? Is the win on the road sweet enough to counteract the awfulness of losing at home?

 

[SuperHoops]

I don't know all the details behind the story or if it's really true but I'm pretty sure I heard about it through the local media when OSU was on their Final 4 run with the Grahams. And to Kelvin's defense it wasn't like the Grahams were a known commodity at that time, just a couple of guys looking to make a step up from UCF where they weren't exactly dominating.

I think it is IF the win on the road comes after losing at home. Too me losing at home after having won on the road just flat out sucks. Kind of a weird way to look at it I guess

The story I heard is that we didn't really feel like offering Stephen Graham a scholarship. Hey, you win some and you lose some.

The killer was offering a late scholarship to some clown named Jimmy Tobias which set off a chain reaction that ended with us not having a schollie for Lawrence Roberts when the whole Baylor thing blew up. Ugh.

Lawrence Roberts would have been such a big get for us.

 

[stoops4pres]

Lawrence Roberts would have been such a big get for us.

Would have been interesting to see if we could have gotten Taj Gray also.

Can't imagine a trio of bigs like that with Roberts, Gray, and Bookout. Would have been awesome.
