Post Texas game locker room

You can't see it in this view of the video, but in the one they showed on SportsCenter, it was awesome to see how happy Jordan was. I honestly don't know that I've ever seen him crack a smile since he's been here before last night. Just doesn't really show a whole lot of emotion ever. But he was all smiles last night, it was pretty cool.

God bless Jordan Woodard. He deserves this opportunity to celebrate a big win – and one that he played a huge part in securing.

I was very happy for Jordan Woodard. He is a very good college basketball player and does not deserve all the criticism he gets from OU fans. He is going to be exceptional by his senior year, especially if he improves his three point shooting. His three point shooting is the only thing holding him back. If he were a 35% three point shooter, he might be the toughest pg to defend on penetration. Right now teams don't have to respect his 3 point shot and he still gets to the paint and the line. If that defender had to tighten up, he would likely draw a lot more fouls.

And ironically, his late 3 last night may have been the biggest shot in the game. He's capable, he's just got to start taking them when he gets them.

I think his three-point shot mechanics are much different than his 16' jump shot mechanics. The shots seem different to me. His three is a set shot almost, but one step inside the arc and he elevates and is very effective.

Just wonder if anyone else sees this and curious if it could be a part of the problem.

But he was THE MAN last night in the last 3 minutes. Great pass to Spangler!
 
BTW, and unless my math is bad, he's shooting 38% from 3 in conference

for the season ..Woodard is .375 from the field .260 from 3 ..

booker is .330 from the field and .295 from 3

in conf play .. Woodard is .406 from the field and .385 from 3 .. pretty good stuff .. and fyi .860 from the FF line

booker is .351 overall and up to .357 from 3 in conf play .. and .875 from the line ..

they are both good 3 point shooters that for different reasons (Woodard slump booker injury) got off to terrible shooting starts this season ..

Very nice post, Boulder! Woodard was soundly criticized for his inability to knock down shots early on. And, with good reason. His shooting percentage from the field, especially from three point range, were abysmal. We all knew he was a better shooter, because he shot a very respectable 37% from three last year. Now, he doing it, and that's a very good sign for OU!

I never had a problem with a little criticism, but many (and maybe not on this board) questioned whether he was a D1 player. That's just stupid and uncalled for IMO

Wow. I knew both guys had been shooting better lately, but I didn't realize how dramatically. Thanks for posting.

At least a few on this very board questioned whether Woodward was good enough for Division 1.

I'm with you, Section. Criticism can be constructive. But when it's taken to the extreme, the criticizer forfeits credibility.
 
Those people are ridiculous. He started for Big XII Tournament team as a true freshman. He is way beyond a question of whether or not he belongs in D-I. Anyone that starts at a Big XII school as a true freshman is clearly a D-I level player.

I think it's safe to say we agree. It's just that you were more succinct in your description (ridiculous) of certain people. :ez-laugh:
