We are on the verge of a commitment bonanza

[Sooner23]

I'm predicting five commitments over the next 30 days.

Can you name names?

 

[AdaSooner]

Makes sense to me. Any recruit with half a brain has to recognize the opportunity to start or play significant minutes at OU almost immediately. Based on what we know now about returning players next season, the door is wide open at every position. Cade Davis is the only player I can think of who is a virtual lock to start, and even that is not may not be set in stone.

 

[One More Rebound]

Great! That will help the board get over its Jayhawk obsession...

 

[sooner8]

Wow do you have ESP??By tthe time eveyone leaves OU will have to sign at least 5 maybe more....GO SOONERS!!!!!

Bring it on. I'm ready. I'll I've heard the last 30 days is all the players that are leaving. I'd like to hear about some players that are coming in.

 

[Sooner23]

Wow do you have ESP??

No, but I do have ESPN.

I'm not as optimistic as you but I hope you are right and I'm wrong

 

[soonerp]

No, but I do have ESPN.

Therapy helps.

 

[Sawyer]

Five commitments between now and signing day isn't much of a stretch considering all the open spots at OU right now. Capel's got to find bodies, if nothing else.

 

[sooner8]

Good watch it more!!

 

[SoonersRule]

Not to be negative, but most of these guys seem like plan B to me.

 

[trevahoma]

I'd take a bunch of "Plan B's" like Samhan, Faroukhmanesh, and Fredette all day long. Give me some team players that play with heart and the W's will add up.

 

[sooner8]

You can get players that play with heart all day.You have to know how to mold them to get them to play your sytem...Go Sooners!!!!

 

[coolm]

I don't care if they're plan Z from outer space players - if they care about the program and put forth effort then I am all for them.

Isn't it ironic that at a time when our school is having so much trouble with the 3 MAAs, that the theme so far of this NCAA tourney has been teams like UNI and St. Mary's with no MAA's knocking off teams like Kansas and Villanova who are loaded with them?

After all the years that we wished we could get the bigtime recruits to Norman, we finally do and look what happens.

 

[MercedeSooner]

it is ironic, but thats coming off this past season of a disaster. OU fans werent happy with just making the tourney and hoping to go to the Sweet 16. We wanted a Final Four and hopefully someday a NC. Teams like Cornell, UNI, St Marys etc are great to watch for a couple rounds but the cream rises to the top in the end, and the cream is loaded with AA's who go to the NBA.

 

[quick release]

for every samhan there are 10,000 Orlando Allens

 

[soonerborn77]

Our only problem is schools like UNI and St. Mary's, basketball is their biggest sport while at OU we unfortunately play second fiddle. We're stuck in the grey area, not a true big time basketball school like Kansas, Kentucky, Duke, etc and don't get the mid major exposure like Gonzaga, Butler, etc.

We go to the elite 8 lead by the player(an MDAA) of the year/#1 overall pick and Big XII freshman of the year (also an MDAA). Followed by a abject disaster of a year lead by two freshmen MDAAs and a sophomore MDAA.

Just pointing out that have McDonald's All Americans hasn't been all bad.
