I read an article a couple of months ago that Jasey's coach at Sunrise said "he will probably to go OU". Wonder if that has changed hence the push for Theo John..

I've seen more articles about kids interested in OU then OU interested in them. Hopefully we can land some of these kids.

I need to talk to the Sunrise coach again and find out more about Jasey.. What he is thinking or hearing from OU. He told me several months ago that OU was first on his list at that point.

I think OU is going after both.

My dream class would be Young, Porter and Manek.

McKinley and Theo have been touted as a package deal much like Young and Porter but as you know those things don't work out very often.

Trae Young is the most important recruit for our program since Blake imo. Got to go after that kid with everything we've got.

Harvey and Duval are pipe dreams imo. So is Porter without landing Young.

I hope I am wrong but I saw Manek play three times this year and I don't think he is good enough to ever start at OU. Maybe I just saw him on bad nights.

He will actually have to get in a defensive stance. He looked like he has never done a defensive drill in his life. He does shoot the ball very well though for a tall guy. He needs to get some muscle on his body though to rebound and defend.

He should have stayed at Edmond Memorial...and then he wouldn't have had those issues. Pretty big developmental mistake.

Manek will be really good and have an overarching career at OU like alot of instate kids have. He will be a top 100 kid by summers end.

I like Elijah, but OU will not offer him. He's too small for what they try to do.

Yeah. He doesn't have an offer from what I understand, just interest. I'm not sure Giles has one either. Not sure on Daniels. I think the rest of them do.

 

[CoachTalk]

Some of these offers arent committable. Lk has plans and just as important backup plans.

I think John is now ahead of jasey.

He's only received interest.

I'm not so sure on Jasey vs John. I think they'd take either.

If either commits, we'd be a spot short for the Young/Porter combo but I'm sure something would work out if the two wanted to be Sooners.

All big guys get offered. Such a high commodity. That's why you sign Mcnease Lattin and Mangang all in same year.

He's going to have to improve a lot for this to happen. Like the poster above, I didn't like a lot of what I saw this past year.

I realize that was probably a typo, but I still like it. Makes AK seem to be part of a gang of marauding warriors. :ez-laugh:

Hopefully we get the easiest road to the final 4 each year.

There are no easy roads to the Final 4. Just ask the 64 teams that didn't make it.
