Dear Roe,

Please stay in Beast mode for the rest of the season.

Signed,

I am waiting for the right game to make my "Welcome To Death Roe" sign...he's been so much more of a factor thus far than I thought he would be.

This year he is going to learn to grab 10+ boards a night and score some points. Next year he is going to grab 12+ boards a night and score more points. He is doing exactly what this teams need and sacrificing his offensive production to do it. I guaranty he will figure out how to do both before the season is over.

This entire season is about next year. I am going to love the journey but I cannot wait until next season.

Just out of curiosity is it "Ro" or "Roe"? Since his name is Romero, I'd assume it would be the former.

I always go with "Roe" as that's how he spells it on his Twitter handle.

Love just about everything I am seeing from Roe. Like Cam Clark, he has a bad habit of not shooting on the catch, when he is open, and then dribbling to a spot where he is guarded and attempting to get a guarded shot up on the rim. This won't work against the good players and teams. Right now, he gets some fouls doing this, but it is bad fundamentally.

Clark was horrible about doing this early in the year, but has improved a lot. So, I think he must be getting some coaching on the issue. I bet they say something to Roe as well.

But, like i said, Roe has been a very nice suprise and I bet he just gets better and better this year and next. He hadn't really played in games for almost 3 years when this season started. He didn't play much at Miss St. and then didn't play last year. I definately think his best days are ahead.

A lot of my friends growing up are Miss. State fans, they're kicking themselves observing Osby's rapid improvement this season. We got a steal for sure.

Only 10 games into his OU career Osby leads the Big 12 in offensive rebounds and his 18-rebound game also leads the big 12 (tied with Thomas Robinson from Kansas)

Maybe he's not so bad after all.

I've been very pleased with what Romero has done so far. He lets the game come to him. I was most impressed with him in our only loss of the season to Saint Louis. He was playing unselfishly passing the ball, making rebounds, and playing defense and then he realized we needed him to score, and then he started looking for his shot. Then he started scoring.

I like his game a lot. From what I have seen, we still haven't seen his best game though. I expect more than once this season we will see him take over and fully display what he can do. The opposition better watch out when that happens.

Osby has done a very good job so far, and I feel like there's still a lot he could improve on as a scorer. He should only get better with more experience and next year he could be a force.
