Agree. It would floor me if he weighed 160 pounds. Needs to put on some muscle.

Ulis' size & splitting time with Harrison hurt him. Also Ulis was UK's plan B (which hurt us with Tum Tum Nairn). Fox is a different animal, Ulis might be better in college but Fox is better suited for the NBA.
KU makes sense to being our biggest competitor. I'll say it again, if he sticks with the package deal with Porter that decreases OU's chances a ton.
Blake Griffin has obviously proven that. With his 5 NBA All-Star appearances, I'm not sure there is a single player in the HISTORY of Kentucky's basketball program who actually has more...and no, I'm not exaggerating. If there is one, please pass along his name. Dan Issel and Louie Dampier may have had more if you count ABA all-star games. However, the prestigious University of Kentucky shouldn't need to use the stats of a league that has been out of existence for 40 years to come up with a better NBA player than Blake Griffin.

His dad says 80% of the coaches recruiting him told him to stay home. Sounds like Cal is the only one telling him to leave. Maybe if he goes prep he really is UK bound

I believe Rondo would probably be the closest at 4

All I know is that OU needs to do everything they can to get Trae Young. He is that rare 5 Star, home grown guy that the Sooners CAN land.
They are few and far between in Oklahoma, but OU has gotten its fair share of them over the years...

If Cal wants him to go to prep school then I definitely want him to stay at NN.

He won't win one at Norman North. 4 starters gone from this year and not much help on the Jv team.

And barring injury, Blake Griffin can become a 10+ time All-Star as well. In other words, I'm still waiting for someone to prove to me that going to Kentucky will make one a better NBA player than going to OU. Let's throw Duke into the mix. How many players from Duke are in the Naismith Basketball HOF who played under Coach K? Answer: 0. How many have played under Lon Kruger? Answer: 1 - Mitch Richmond.
The college or coach one chooses has almost nothing to do whether he'll be a great NBA player.
