MBB Transfer Portal Thread: Moser Year 4

So did all the recruiting services miss on Cooper or did Moser miss on his utilization of Cooper? Genuinely asking.

Would also be curious to see the run rate of top 100 recruits over the years and see where Cooper stacks up. Again, genuinely curious.

Alas, I am an ultimate sunshine pumper, but this just seems like another situation where nothing positive can be gleaned from a top 100 recruit deciding to leave a situation where ample playing time would seem to be available in the coming year.

Porter knows it’s now or never. This is about bringing in guys he knows without a doubt can contribute now. He’s mortgaging his future to make sure he survives.

Still waiting on those guys to be brought in... Any of them.

(sorry, I'm pissed at how we have handled this entire thing)

247 has Cooper as #93 nationally (yes, I know that's just one ranking service); they had CJ Noland was #92 back in the day.

I'm not saying Cooper won't be better than Noland. I am saying there's no guarantee he will. Ranking services get it wrong often.

I for one wish ranking services had never become a thing. Fans rely on them far too much.

Neither. He’s a high potential but unpolished talent that could still become a very good player but he wasn’t ready to contibute in year one.

I agree with you for sure, it’s incredibly frustrating. The good news though, we’re almost guaranteed a new coach after the year. They were never firing him this year, but next year? Different story.

Technically 3 open spots counting Moore who, by all accounts, will be back. The guy who does the spreadsheet keeps it open just in case.

Losing around 8 players every year in college basketball is going to kill the game imo. Fans will soon have absolutely no connection to these annual mercenaries

OU coaches...

If you're on here....

This would be a great time to leak out a visit, maybe take to Twitter to promote your program, or really, anything that could be labeled a positive!

I totally agree but OU's coaches somehow think people knowing what's going on will hurt them. How can it be worse?

It’s only a matter of time before Moser gets fired. He should’ve been fired already but nobody wanted to pay the buyout. Oh well. This is awesome.

Bullcrap. He is maybe the most secure coach at OU. His buyout is too large, BMDs could care less if the program lives or dies, all lead to him being safe as safe can be.

Good try, though.
 
I'll get my hopes up for a JoeC hire when he actually manages better than 33/100 at hires in men's bball. That's assuming PM can't get to the tourney in the SEC .. and since he has been "last man out" twice that's not a bet I'd make outside of an assumption of bad luck continuing.

In that case, I circle back to my 2nd question. Not asking you or anyone to do the research, would just be curious how other players ranked similarly to him faired in regard to playing time.

Yeah I don’t know about one of the most secure coaches BUT apparently he is loved by all in the athletic department. A member at my club works for the athletic department… on the football side. Great guy and a big time Sooner former player. We have had a discussion about PM and he replied’great guy we all love him’ with all sincerity. I think PM is gonna have to have a big fail to be fired. Like last in the league. Or a major donor goes knocking on Joe C’s door. Middle of the road AGAIN he probably stays.
