Trae Young, OK Prep Burger Boys, and OU's history with them

[perryj74]

So there have been 8 former OK prep stars named to the McD's AA team. Trae Young will be the 9th.

Xavier Henry
Blake Griffin
Wayman Tisdale
JR Giddens
Jeff Webster
Mike Maddox
Lee Mayberry
Ryan Humphrey

Of the 8 half of them signed with OU, 3 with KU, and 1 with Arkansas. 3 of the 4 that signed with OU finished their playing careers in Norman and are easily considered some of the best to ever play inside the LNC. Of the 3 that went to KU, Maddox was forced to quit playing due to injuries, Henry was a one and done, and Giddens transferred out to New Mexico. Given the history it's easy to see why Trae Young should go ahead and sign with OU.

I probably should have mentioned that of the 3 that finished their careers at OU, 2 of them have gone on to illustrious careers in the NBA.
