Transfer Portal 2025

No disagreement there. Hard to say since we don't know who the other transfers are.

I also have no feel for Jeff N. and Jones. One or both could easily be starters based off what we heard last season.
From my understanding Jones was the leading scorer for the two scrimmages, correct? and the fact they wanted him back has to say they see him as the starter at 3.
Maybe he can play the 2. IMO I see it as a Jones vs. Nwankwo battle for the 3 spot, which is good.

Maybe they talked Collins into thinking he can be a more efficient player with the ball out of his hands more? Maybe Pack is fine with showing he can also play off the ball? 65%-35% Pack ball share?

Pack
Collins
Jones
Davis
Wague

Dayton
Nwankwo
Rodgers
Campbell
Cheap 5

May be fun

But then it would suck to have Frankie at the 2 fuc*ing up the floor spacing. Defenses will laugh at OU for being so dumb.
 
Someone posted it on Scoop but didn’t clarify that it’s supposedly a top 10 guy, just a “big name guard from a P4” & my guesses were:

Jeremy Fears
Caleb Foster
DJ Wagner

But with the top 10 thing, I’ve got nothing. Braden Smith to Oklahoma 😂

Would Christian Anderson look around? Extremely doubtful imo and wouldn’t call him top 10 at this moment but I think he’s going to be a very good player. OU also recruited him after his decommitment from Michigan.
Jeremy Fears is not a big name guard. Definitely not a top 10 guy.

He's a pass first PG. Good at a school like Michigan with good scorers. Would be a mess at OU.

Yeah had a thought about Christian Anderson… hard to see him leaving tech, but then again Williams just did so idk. Another thing about Anderson is that he is good off the ball.
 
Collins > Campbell, though neither is real sexy. At least Collins has shown for four years to be a double figure scorer at the Power 4 level.

We might have an extra scholly if Blair is drafted high enough in the MLB Draft to sign, which is quite possible. In that case, Campbell could take that spot, but he's 100% the kind of guy who should be getting the last roster spot very late in the process, certainly not now with 100s of good players available.
 
Just need to get Nijel on that visit… dream scenario imo would be to get Nijel, Campbell, and then hope that guy Lusk is talking about could play the 2 spot.

I would be shocked if we were in a position to land both Nigel and a legit top 10 transfer at guard. Not just the money, but if the transfer wants the "Fears role", he isn't getting that with Pack in the starting lineup.

I think Godwin was the leading scorer in the scrimmages, which shows exactly how much pretend games in October mean.

any scenario without a starting center is a nightmare
 
OU cannot go into next season trying to start Frankie, Davis, and Wague.

Spacing nightmare.
I'm willing to wait until the final roster, but this kind of points back to the comment I made last week about Moser always overreacting to deficiencies when he recruits the next team.

He wanted shooters last year. Defense and rebounding were bad. Now he's recruiting better defenders that aren't good scorers/shooters. Davis is odd. Bigger than Moore, but a worse shooter and probably a worse rebounder?

Again, I'm willing to let the roster fill out before forming a full opinion.

If you saw what pm did with godwin just last year, you should assume that wague will start every game next year unless injured, regardless of if Kai rogers is better. So you have your starting 5 already imo.
