Marvin Johnson

It really is too bad that he hasn’t done what he needs to do to gain the trust of the coaches. I have no idea how well or consistently he would play if given the chance, but he would at least bring a level of athleticism we don’t have in the rest of our guards. Who knows, he may have been able to get to the rim and create some offense when we were struggling to do anything tonight. But with the noncon nearing its completion, it looks more and more like he won’t have a role on this team. What a shame.

I just don't think he's good enough. Legit watching him the few times he's out there does nothing for me. He kinda looks the part, but I don't think he's big 12 good. Cortes is the future and can really pass it/can't defend yet.. but I'd rather play him and let him learn to get ready for next year to possibly be our PG. Noland eating up minutes too.

i think he needs to be a little more aggressive shooting the ball when he is open ..

I agree. It seems like OU is desperate for someone to loosen a defense up besides Gibson. His high school videos show a nice stroke and a lot of makes. Sure, he's always had a distributor mindset, but if he can shoot, Moser needs to tell him to let it fly!

The first time I say him on the court it was very apparent that he is extremely athletic. He possesses a very smooth and fluid style that I really like. I hope he can contribute in the future. How much eligibility does he have?
