They look terrific! :woot

 

[KCRuf/Nek]

Have I mentioned lately how glad I am that Lon Kruger is our coach?

Who?

 

[opsooner]

Even if you did, it won't hurt to do it again.

This team is so much better now than they were early in the season. The players deserve a lot of credit for that. But so does Lon Kruger.

I am amazed at the progress. It was really credit to how LK let the freshmen play and start early in favor of some starters last season. It was ugly to watch early but now look where we are.

Not many coaches would have done this. They would have let the freshmen come in off the bench in certain situations. Guys would be more tired now, freshmen would still not be playing at a high level. Really nice to see us playing strong basketball in late February.

5 front row seats and no one is in them. Pathetic! Give them to someone who wants them.

Who?

Head Coach Lon Frickin' Kruger

 

[JBaker]

Not the ideal start for the half from Grooms...

Agreed. After a lackluster preseason I was worried we were in for another season of struggles. We've really turned it up in conference play, and seem to be very close to locking up a tournament bid.

 

[WTSooner]

Probably going to be a sloppy half. Tough to keep up the intensity in the game like this.

 

[JBaker]

Ugh awful start for the offense. Let's get something going and step on their throat.

 

[ousooners1baby]

Man it pisses me off when they call a game differently the 2nd half.

Am I the only one that heard what the anouncer said about Buddy? He reported that he would definately be back by the Big 12 Tourney, if not before.

Other than the 1st half performance, that was the best basketall news today.

I must have missed it. Definitely great news if true!

 

[slappy in OP]

Heard that. Good news if they got that right

At OU? What happened to Capel? He kicked azz. :capelspin

 

[CoachTalk]

Ok we all agree Drew sucks as a coach! Why wouldn't you fire every assistant and hire some guys to coach every practice and let him just sit and watch during games! but I'm glad they don't do that!

 

[JBaker]

This is REALLY bad to watch.
We need to get our crap together right now, or we could be in for a repeat of our first game against these guys if they get going.

 

[AdaSooner]

This game is far from over. LK needs to put Grooms back in. Our offense has stalled with Cousins running the show.

 

[opsooner]

Offense sputtering again. We can draw fouls every time down the court if we are patient enough to do it.

 

[KCRuf/Nek]

We need to start paying attention or we'll be up seven before we know it.

 

[Keller Sooner]

Come on Sooners! Let's go on another run.
