Manek and Williams

[pnkranger]

Is anyone else starting to get the feeling that Manek and Williams might be back -- depending on the coach?

Manek had a really frustrating year by all accounts, and it's obvious he wasn't satisfied with the result. And Williams has a ton to gain financially by taking over that third guard spot for a full year, especially if he can get back to his midseason form and develop a jumpshot.

I bet Williams will stay if the new coach wants him. Manek is probably more likely to stay with a new regime IMO

I’d like to see Williams come back he improved a lot from year one to year two. He seemed overwhelmed a lot his first year.
He is obviously a great athlete he does some of the best in-game dunks we’ve ever seen at OU.
If he develops a consistent jumper and continues to get better on defense he can be a difference maker.
Manek could come back with new regime and finish his career on a high note if the new coach plays him as a stretch four rather than having him guard the five where he gets bullied in the painted area and loses his confidence.
I’d like to see both of them come back.

Is the delay possibly related to the hire? You had mentioned a quick timetable, but here we are a week later and crickets. Maybe it is a Sampson.

I was told so.. but that makes me think the new coach is still coaching...

I think McCasland is still in play.

What about Najera with Carlos Slim backing him? That would be game changing for OU!
