Mods...can we give OKHoops918 an OSU logo as his avatar? That way he can't fake it anymore.
Not sure where this is coming from. I had heard he'd go to KU about 3 weeks before his commitment date.
I had heard he preferred OSU over OU at the time but it was KU most likely. His dad got more involved and adamant about OU later in the process. Glad he chose to stay in Norman
Don't want to dog on the kid or stop recruiting him but I think its fair to say its unlikely he comes to OU.
I've said it since ive known in november though and Ive been told im making things up by several
to each their own
I said before KU (90%) or OSU(5%) or UK (5%), KU likely.
He isn't coming here and Lon is fooled.
But I'm sure someone who thinks they know will come on and inform us all of the 'truth'.
The thought that he is a Norman kid and been to OU games so much has no bearing...
Sucks but true!
Dad wants KU though. KU is most likely.

Need I go further? All of your posts have an underlying pro-OSU tone. You try to act like an OU fan but your OSU fandom is way too strong for you to fake being an OU fan. :eddie187_jpg_xs:
You're now directly contradicting yourself by saying that it was only because his dad wanted Trae at OU that he ended up signing with the Sooners.
Please stop. You're embarrassing yourself and wasting our time.
With this keen observation from Sky, I believe ouhoops918 should be banned if he doesn't change his username. We have confirmation he was subverting. Obviously a mole.You're now directly contradicting yourself by saying that it was only because his dad wanted Trae at OU that he ended up signing with the Sooners.

Gee, B.O.B., I hope I don't get on your bad side . Seriously, it has been obvious for quite some time this poster was an Aggie. That's fine, but just wish he admitted it. It's not as if he wouldn't be allowed to post here. Of course, it would ruin his fun in making those predictions. When Trae picked OU, I don't think that guy posted for quite some time.
As for Pritchard, I just wish he never committed to OU in the first place. In basketball, flips can hurt a lot more than football in the short term. Fortunately, it looks like it only hurt OU for one year. Cool idea for a thread, BTW.

WF, you may know me and how I operate as an admin as well as anyone on this board. I think you already know, but for some reason I feel compelled to explain where B.O.B. and other posters are coming from. Okhoops918 brought this on himself. As the old saying goes [paraphrasing here]: If he walks like a Poke and talks like a Poke, there's a good chance he's a Poke.
I couldn't agree more. I was just having some fun, hence the wink in my post. And yes, no one will ever accuse you of being unnecessarily harsh on a poster who supports a rival. OSUhoops918 reminds me a bit of Cheno. Although the latter was an obvious KU fan, he always tried to give us the impression OU was his second favorite team and took more than his share of subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) jabs at OU.

Just a sooner fan trying to pass along info I heard at a time. If Trae was an OU lock don't you think he would've committed earlier?
like I've sad, glad he is here! I don't think he'll struggle at the D1 level I just have no idea if he'll be a good player or an elite player at this level. In due time (soph or jr year) I think he projects to be an elite player, I just dont know if its immediate.
Glad to see theres so much talk about me, it's nice to be thought of
It's what turned the tide! I said OU was favorite for a long while, then Trae started seeing stars at KU and even OSU for a short period he had been excited with them.
Trae ended up deciding that OU would be the best spot for him and his dad was important in that decision
Please stop. You're embarrassing yourself and wasting our time.
Yet another clown post from OSUHoops918. :facepalm
I've yet to see a post from you that says "OU was the favorite". Please find it and post the link to the thread and tell us the post number, like I did with your other posts. Right-click your username and then choose "see all posts by this poster" (or whatever it says) and find that post. Either find it or stop trying to hide behind your aggie fandom.
i am actually serious and have it from a good friend close to trae family
OU was leading for a long time but things have changed over the last 2 months. UK isn't an option, he wants to stay close to home.
he grew up an OSU fan and always saw himself there. Lindy waters and Underwood have inched their way back into his recruitment. he loved his KU visit and is a lean to KU.
this is what i heard and its same person who told me OU or UK for past 3-12 months
dont kill messenger
Guys, my conscience will not allow this to continue without setting the record straight. Like you, I was convinced that post did not exist...that is, until I found it in okhoops918's posting profile late last night. He made the post below on November 3rd of last year.
From that point forward, at least in his mind, OU was virtually dead last in the running for Trae Young. In okhoops918's now infamous predictions, the Sooners weren't usually included except as an afterthought.
Sorry if I disappointed anyone. But, while some may not believe it, I try to be fair to everyone on this board.
