Rest Easy, Fellow Sooners

Agree 100%. The biggest “what if” in OU basketball I can remember.

interesting question...i'd have to mull it a bit but Scottie Reynolds was a very very good college player.

Help me remember, who all was in that class?

Reynolds
James (ended up at UT)

My memory isn't what it used be.

I'd trade Blake and Taylor for the guys that Kelvin WAS going to bring any day of the week. We were about to be absolutely loaded. And he was in on some key guys the following season as well.

Stupid Sutton family pushing the NCAA on some extra texts and calls while they were out running pills, driving drunk, and pissing on elementary school buildings.

Would have been interesting to see if kelvin could have retained those blue chip guys as his track record was poor in that department previously. Some 4 and 5 star type players who transferred out off the top of me head:

Ryan Humphrey
Deangelo Alexander
Drew lavender
Lawrence McKenzie
Prince Fowler
Brandon foust
Alex Spaulding
...

Yep, that's it. And who stuck around.....was that Tony Crocker?

Crocker was the year before with Austin Johnson, TGriffin, etc. Only Clark stuck with that class. https://247sports.com/college/oklahoma/Season/2006-Basketball/Commits/

Also Darrell Arthur was an OU lean I believe. Chose KU after Kelvin's firing.

I was thinking he was a Baylor lean and per this article his Final three were Kansas, Baylor and LSU.

Kelvin wasn't fired.

 

[CMSOONER]

Kelvin wasn't fired.

You are correct, he wasn't technically fired.

No I still think it’s mcassland

What about calling Najera? He coached 3 years in the D league and is a scout for the Mavs. That means he obviously knows how to evaluate talent and is only 3 hours down the road.

Have a friend who is a Florida alum, and he said Mike White might be available/interested if Joe C. reached out to him. After their loss to ORU, he's in a similar seat as Shaka. Has produced decent results, but the seat is getting a little warm. He might be interested in a change of scenery.

And I believe we played not only against James, but Reynolds as well. A bit strange how that played out for "it's a small world after all."

Jeremy mayfield i think was his name i think off memory. Think he went to UAB instead.

OUinsider.com is sure pushing Kellen. Is he a real possibility?

Not at all.

Only 24 hours into Lon stepping down, lots of names are going to be thrown out there, especially if they have a connection to OU so lots being thrown at the wall right now...

OUinsider.com is sure pushing Kellen. Is he a real possibility?

No. He is in a better position and is poised to take over UH in a few years when Kelvin hangs em up.

How is being an assistant at a g5 commuter school like Houston making $150k better than making $1mm+ at a top 25 program?

No one is calling your Kellen or Quannas because they aren’t qualified for the OU head coaching job. Houston would be middle of the pack in the big 12 at best.
