Re: Three Junior College visitors confirmed for next weekend

I figured they could. How physical are these JUCO guys? OU really needs some guys that will get down and dirty. I'd love some Quannas White/Jason Heyward (Haywood?)=type players next year.

Man, id really like to have a Jason Heyward on my fantasy team. I really think hes gonna be a stud.

Carter sounds finesse, kind of like Everett. Poland seems like a really athletic, physical player.

I agree. Quannas White was one of my favorite Sooners in the Sampson years. He was tough as nails, didn't back down from anybody and played some of his best games against the best competition. I truly believe if he hadn't got hurt before the Final Four, we win the Championship.

Are any of the Utah schools looking at Thompson? I see where he signed with Weber out of hs.

Thompson said in his interview with Hale it was OU and New Mexico.

If history is any guide, we should be signing a Midland JC point guard that leads us to the Final 4 any time now...

I just hope we get some guys that can build some chemistry together. Players that look like a team whether they win or lose.

Hopefully he follows the path of a certain ex-Weber St. football signee; Highpull...Hipple...Hypul....er, something like that.

As I recall, Josh is from Snow College in Utah.

True, but he transferred there from Weber St.

Right. I had forgotten about that.

So are we going to spend another year pretending like Tiny is a Center and not a true Power Forward. We pretty much had the worst interior play in the conference, yet we seem to be focusing all our efforts on guards and small forwards.

Good question. From what I have gathered, Aziz N'Diaye is a top priority of this staff. He would be a guy that could come in from day 1 and give us quality minutes at the five.

Tiny wants to be a power forward. I also think he has the skills to be a power forward. He DOES NOT (yet) have the body/quickness/lateral quickness to be an effective defensive power foward at this level (or any other level). This is a big offseason for Mr. Gallon. I will give him a lot of credit for dropping all that weight last offseason, but we are going to need him to do it again and to really strive to be great.

Who does Poland play for because you have him listed on Hutchinson team but I don't see him on the roster or on the stat sheet. He did play for Cowley last year but he's not on their team this year.

According to the news today, Tiny probably won't be back next season.

Poland and Goff transferred from Cowley to Hutch. They had to sit out this year.

Yes

According to the TW and their "source". I'm still sticking to what I said, Tiny will be back.

Quick, is Tiny on a serious diet/nutrition regimen? He must have made some serious dietary changes to lose that weight.

I'm not exactly sure what kind of regimen he was on before he got to OU but it involved more cardio than weights from what I gathered. The one he just started is a serious fitness regimen that will get him in the weight room more while keeping the cardio fitness up. Darby helped Yo with designing it. It won't be anything like Blake and Taylor went through with Frank M. but it will be solid for him and he(Tiny) is showing great strides in getting serious, night and day from when he walked on campus.
