Did you accidentally leave off Kellen Sampson? I kid, I kid.

We just need a Hell, Holl, and Hull to complete the PG/combo target list.

Based on your list @StoopsBros , we are getting zero of those candidates.

Maybe we sway Jadon Jones?

But at this point, if I am Jalon Moore, I may even enter. Being completely honest. I know I fit well in the Moser system, and unless I believe in Cooper/Cole/Forsythe taking a big leap, why wouldn't I want to go to a school with a better roster for a tournament run OR just go pro somewhere overseas? Trying to think of it, if I was the parent of Moore, I would absolutely have him explore his options right now. Unless he has a deal too good to refuse.

I made fun of WT, bc, well, it is really easy to do...but the JUCO route may be the way to go based on how well we are doing right now.

I wouldn’t fault him if he did enter the transfer portal.

Just contact any of them at this point. We should be on every twitter contact list.

Throw all of your budget at Kyky and Chaz, then get one of those Cs, a backup guard/F and we are good. I would be happy with Carlton Linguard as well.
 
OU having to issue refunds to parents/kids that paid for the OU basketball camp is a new low for me on the public image side of things. Can't even throw out enough players to host a camp. Sheesh.
Yikes!

Not a public image issue. No one would know about it except if you were signed up or on this site.

I'm being a little too negative. Or maybe I'm being realistic at this point. If NIL is a major component for a portal kid, I assume OU will lose vs most power programs.

On Jadon, honestly, OU should be able to win out vs Rutgers and/or Butler. But....A) how will the visit will go? Will he like it? B) Will it be enough to cancel a planned Butler trip? C) What is the kid's major motivation(s)? Winning? NIL? Playing time? It's likely a mix. Do Butler and/or Rutgers look more appealing than OU in it's current state? Who knows. D) Who is willing to pay him the most?

The coaches will add kids. They have to. Right? Without us being able to really track/see things, what we do know/see hasn't been good enough. Giving them an F grade is not only fair but it feels a little too high, lol. Are they waiting for the portal to close? Right now Lusk or Bob P or whoever should be providing an update telling us that 5 or more kids will be in Norman this weekend. Why not? There are, at worse, 2 starting spots open (if we call Godwin a starter). It should be 3-4 (but the coaches likely see Elvis as a starter).

I've joked about a D2 kid named Matt Becht. He's visited Richmond and is set to visit Oakland (two programs that want to win and have good HCs). He shot 45% from 3P. Can he play in the SEC? I mean, probably not, or at worst, he's Maks-esque (deep bench). But chit, waste the cost of a plane ticket and bring him to campus. Rick Pitino is putting dudes through workouts when they visit STJ, do the same for this Becht kid and/or others. You guys are mentioning jucos, same thought process really. Evaluate, get them in person, see what they have, maybe they'll luck up and find some kids like Dalton Knecht, Jack Gohlke, etc.....kids that took different, less heralded paths to become really good college players.

Point: Think outside of the damn box. The point isn't Becht himself.
