Kuol Atak

[WTSooner]

He is one of the worst defenders I’ve seen at OU. Makes him pretty much unplayable.

I miss Kuol. he brought a spark every time he stepped on the floor. I think he unfairly took the brunt of Moser's "we've got to get better on defense" talks. He's going to go somewhere like Iowa State next year and average 12 a game as the 6th man on a sweet sixteen team.

i bet he goes some where in texas and averages more then that

So instead we play Nwankwo and Jones, who have combined to shoot well below 30% on 3s.

And it’s not like either does anything special defensively.

Give Atak the right coach and he will be plenty good. But I am sure it will not be at OU. New coach is going to have to completely start over.

Our whole team is bad defensively. If he is actually benching Atak for defense, it’s interesting he is the only guy on the team he is holding accountable, despite the fact he is a much bigger offensive threat than the three guards who come off the bench in front of him.

The worst defender on the team is Brown and he doesn’t sit. Brown gets beat off the dribble by every guard in the SEC.

Nwankwo is the worse shooter on the team and every average defensively.

I don't understand why he's being benched, we couldn't do a whole lot worse than we currently are. When you have nothing to lose give guys like him with a lot of upside a chance to prove themselves. Instead he's benching this kid and undoubtedly he's already got his mind in the portal. At this rate looks like we're going to have an entirely new staff and roster again next season... Maybe for the best
