Manek looking for quick returns for Sooners | NewsOK

I'll say it, but we're all thinking it.

  • "He's a skinny dude, looks goofy."
  • This guy can hoop?
  • Yes, can hoop
  • 6'9 forward
  • Small-town player
  • "He'll dunk on you. He'll hit a 3 in your face. He's the real deal.”
  • Wispy mustache

He's Larry Bird. :)
 
Neat article. One thing I found out recently is that Manek actually grew up in Edmond. Moved summer before high school to Harrah. Actually grew up playing with Doolittle, his older brother Kellen at ORU, Jakolby Long at Iowa State and Curtis Haywood at Georgia Tech. Heard they had quite the team back in the day.
 
What's a "military ball fade"?
He's been a pleasant surprise and will only get better. Kruger may have found an all conference(even all american?) player.
