Top 5 crowd favorite walk-ons at OU

[DenverSooner]

Man, who is this Ski character. I will have to do some research.

He was a Lambda Chi and walkon basketball player. I think he was from Bartlesville. The fans wanted three things back then. A win, break 100 points and Ski to play the final minute.

And, if you were lucky, you got a win, 130+ points and Ski in the game for the final THREE minutes.

Cano was always my favorite. His last two years coincided with my first two years of college.

Here's one not mentioned yet: Ezra Zoeschke. Dude was quick as hell, but really small. 02-03 I believe.

i started following OU basketball in 2004 and my favorite and is still my favorite one is Kellen Sampson

Ski is definitely the top. He was the first of the walk-ons to get recognized and have his name chanted. Correct, he is from Bartlesville. His dad played on the old Phillips AAU team.

Believe it or not, I was a Lambda Chi and Jason was my "little brother". Yes, he is from Bartlesville and I'm proud to say that my friends and I were usually the instigators of the "SKI" chant.

I'm really going to try and find video of Jason doing the "cabbage patch" with Andre Wiley, Mike Bell, et al....it was PRICELESS!!

Ok, found this on YouTube...it's not him dancing but it's my boy SKI!

He gets about 15 seconds at the 1:50 mark...he shoots and scores at the 7:53 mark.

Damn, I miss those days.

Yeah, missing "traditional" pledge ship has clearly impacted my adult life!

Amazing how we "pledges" won intramurals, including hoops and football, 3 of my 4 years on campus!

What about Ott?

Ott was only on the team for like one season. Was a good dude though.
