OSU's Fred Gulley out for season

STILLWATER -- Oklahoma State sophomore point guard Fred Gulley said Thursday he has been diagnosed with a non-cancerous cyst in a shoulder bone and will undergo a surgical procedure that likely will end his season.

Gulley said the surgery will probably take place next week and he said the recovery time is expected to be three or four months.

“It’s unfortunate, but it’s been something that has been bothering him for awhile and it’s good to go ahead and get it fixed,” coach Travis Ford said, indicating that the Cowboys will lose their best perimeter defender and one of their few perimeter players with height.

“He was a very, very important piece to the puzzle, but it’s good that he will be able to get a redshirt year under his belt. He’ll only be a sophomore and he will be 100 percent healthy and he’ll have a great career.”

Gulley started the first seven games, averaging 2.3 points and 2.6 rebounds, but said pain got progressively worse. He missed the last three games.

I think we'll be fine. Penn played more minutes off the bench than Fred and Dowell has played well as the backup pg the last three games
 
Thank goodness it is benign. Good luck and speedy recovery to him.
 
Nice to know all blankenship care about is wins and losses. I hope he has a full and speedy recovery and nothing major comes from this.
 
Lol @ OSU. They suck. How did they do in the Big XII title game? O yeah, they weren't there because daddy slapped them around again.

I don't think they were the ones that lost to Chaminade.

Good luck to Gulley, he seems like a pretty solid kid. Hopefully he comes back 100% next year.

I would guess that Markel Brown will get most of Gulley's minutes.

Boca this is a Basketball board and as such we have no room to talk s*** to anyone after last season, and our embarrassment in Maui
 
We always have room to talk smack to pokey state. They are inferior to OU and that includes basketball. Any drop at OU that gives the step child an advantage will be short lived.

This is the OU-Texas-Kansas conference and nothing is going to change that.
 
Anyway...


Gulley is a solid defender, Reger Dowell has really stepped up his defense in Gulley's absence.

As Stated above Markel Brown has also really started playing well. The OSU team is very different than the last two years. Not a lot of three's, solid on ball defense and lots of dunks.

we average 5.6 dunks per game
 
Tough break for the kid. I dont think it hurts OSU much at all though this season.

Since when are wins not important? Have your expectations fallen that much?
 
More import than a player's health?

I agree but I didn't see where blankenship said anything negative about the players health.

Some of you guys need to realize as long as Capel is coaching in Norman and Ford is coaching in Stillwater, OSU is going to beat us more times than not. Get used to it. I don't like it either, but the handwriting is on the wall.

If only they had kept Sean Sutton as coach, I'd feel much better about our chances of beating them with Capel leading the team.
