Yeah I hear he's below the rim, but every highlight i watch is of him crushing dunks so idk.. but then again, jalon Moore could dunk too but he was below the rim imo.
10 and 10? We haven't had a guy average 7+ rebounds since Tanner Groves and Doolittle... I'd be happy if he was a 10-6 kind of guy
Yes. I'm hyped and def reserve the right to be wrong, but we are starving for a good C. He looks the part man
He has absolutely played true freshmen who are ready to play. Milos started the last 24 games as a true freshman and averaged 29 mpg his freshman year. Oweh started the last 10 games of his freshman season and averaged 23 mpg during that time…and of course you have Fears this year. Cooper simply wasn’t ready…when he was in there, had the deer in headlights look.
I don't think either of those guys will be ready to contribute this year, assuming Blair even makes it on campus.
Have you watched any extended video of him?
Well there you have it -- comparing him to a guy who was the top pick in the draft after his freshman year.
He's definitely no Holmgren. I watched some of his tape the other day and to me, he looks like he could be everything that we wanted Northweather to be. I don't know how stiff the NBA Academy competition is, but he has a really smooth, quick release on his shot, he's a pretty good cutter, and he seems to be a decent distributor. He is never going to be a back to the basket player, but could be an okay 5 in a 5 out scheme. He's thinner and lighter on his feet/quicker than Northweather. Probably needs to bulk up a bit, but may be able to contribute in short doses this year.
Based on history and having watched the sport for multiple decades.
To be fair, you get way more info on this board than anywhere. This plus a sprinkle of Trilly gets you more than any other site.
Great idea on Chat GPT! LOL. And yeah, I'm not so sure that some "reporters" in the media and on the other boards get their information straight from this site.
And, I learn about medians, averages, and proper math terms on this page- can't get that on TOS.Coach talk is all I need. He’s spot on everything he posts here. Hopefully the clown's don’t drive him away BoomerGreat idea on Chat GPT! LOL.

Bob used to be really good, but as they moved and expanded, it seems basketball has taken a back seat. Plus, I don't like how everything on the site is now designed to get more clicks, listen to the podcasts, or opens. Just post the news on the thread that has been started. I also think he may have lost some source(s) in Dildy or something, as he doesn't have the same inside info as tight as he used to have. But I still like how he at least has a focus on basketball on that board. Without him, it's a wasteland.
As far as Lusk, I like how he hustles to get info and tries to make basketball a priority. His only priority (well, except being a teenager and school and all those things). But he does have a propensity to throw a lot out there, and it's hard to filter out what is likely or just speculation.
This board has better news than either, and I'll take sources like @notaburner over any local media source. Plus, where else can one get spreadsheets, inside scoop, and always positive conversation and optimism about OU hoops??
Agree on notaburner specifically, and Stoops and TEvans usually are far ahead of the “reporters” when it comes to portal info and coaching vacancies.Great idea on Chat GPT! LOL.

Good scorer but not great defender or rebounder for his size / athleticism.
