We have been talking a lot about what OU needs in recruiting, and I always say a scoring guard and two post players. David Tairu is a perfect example of a juco guy coming in and making the team better from day one.
In his first season out of juco he averages 11 points a game, shoots 47% from the 3pt line, and is a good athlete and defender. That is the type of guy I hope OU signs for next year, and maybe that kid Capel is recruiting (Poland or the other guy in Kansas) is that type of player.
Tairu had 18 points and 5 rebounds in 21 minutes tonight... Singletary had a big game, but when you have a guy that can produce like that in 20 minutes that is huge. When I looked at the box score my first thought was "Tairu won them the game".
I think Capel knows OU needs a guy like that out of juco, which is why he is recruiting a few guys in Kansas right now. Hopefully he can sign one, along with the 7 foot guy from Southern Idaho.
