Playing ORU or Tulsa will always be ok with me no matter how bad they are.

 

[OklaSooners]

I’ll be there.

Tulsa isn't bad this year. Just played KSU down to the wire. They'd probably give us a game.

In all honesty and it's a joke...sort of, at least for a while anyone will "give us a game" if we continue to play or not play defense like we have so far.

Well all I can say it's about time.

Looking forward to finally seeing Jadon Jones..although I wouldn’t expect him to play a ton of minutes tonight…and I can’t see he won’t be “rusty”. If he can be back to normal by conference play, it will help with depth.

Well all I can say it's about time.

Yea, I didn't know if it would actually happen.

Now, let's see if he lives up to the talk about how valuable he would be. Remember, even before the injury, Lusk was suggesting he was behind JN in the rotation. So far, JN hasn't even resembled the play we were promised, so my expectation on Jones will be fairly low till proven otherwise.

Well all I can say it's about time.

I legitimately didn’t think he’d ever be back. So glad for the depth. JN has not been very good. He needs some push. JJ should atleast give some competition to the rotation.
