If Trae wins it that will be OUs third since Blake Griffin. When was that? About 8 years ago? Pretty impressive.

I noticed that Baker said that Blake got him the tickets to the NBA game the other night.

He was in the 2009 draft, so his POY awards must have been '08-'09.

Will he hit the wall ...
I have been watching OU basketball since my senior year at OU (1977). I have never seen anything like Trae Young in Crimson and Cream. He is an absolute joy to observe.
Over the years, I have seen many freshman basketball players “hit the wall” later in their freshman season as their inexperienced young minds, bodies and emotions wear down from the long grind of a long college basketball season. It is a long grind of battling against older, stronger and more mature players.
Now enter Trae Young, playing more than 32 minutes per game at the point guard position, which is the the most pressure packed position on the floor. Due to his outstanding efficiency and success, he has the added pressure of national media focus. Game after game, he is the primary focus of outstanding coaches and players on the opposing teams.
I don’t know if Trae will wear down by the time February rolls around. I tend to think not. Trae is special on many fronts. I think he will just jump over that wall.
If he does jump over that wall, then POY honors are very possible.
