We really need TMG to take a stand and stay C&C

It was also tweeted between Eric Bossi and Jonathan Givony (DraftExpress). Bossi stated that it was interesting that OU was really chasing PG's hard in Hutchinson at the JUCO tourney and Givony responded that it lines up with what they're hearing about TMG leaving.

Agree 100%, I don't want to be the school where he got his growing pains out of the way, only to end up being a heck of a D-1 PG [see Drew Lavender].

Or even an okay D-I starter [see Bobby Maze].

Amazing if true.

Did a true freshman in the country get more opportunities to handle the rock than TMG? I'd say he got every opportunity that John Wall did.

It would have been hard at least over the last ten games unless someone also played every minute, but also went into overtime a lot.

There must be some beef between TMG and WWIII, because for that last 10 games, the offense ran through TMG.

This is where I saw it, and now Gallon. Does anybody doubt that this program is going to the crapper?

Good question. Another question ...... Is there anyone who knows if WW, Tiny, TMG, etc. have stopped going to class? That might tip off their intentions. If they quit going, they may not have a choice of playing next year.

Even if they've left campus, Capel could still talk them into coming back..... It's been done before.

To be completely honest here guys we will be alot better of a defensive team without tmg....now tmg is a great offensive power so that will hurt....But if gallon comes back I think we have enough offense to do with tmg, and we will have a much better defense...

I am truly hopefull WW comes back to run the point and gallon comes back to dominate...my hopefull lineup

1) WW
2) Cade
3) Clark
4) T Jones
5) Gallon


I know I have wishfull thinking about t jones...but I will never say never until he has signed with another school...and I know it may be wishfull thinking about willie

 

[dubyac]

i heard on the radio yesterday, that willie was still going to classes...

 

[luckyc1423]

If this is true it kinda stinks though because if tmg were publicly gone we possible could have been in a better situation for lamb, for mcallum and other nice pg's...or we would have taken a pg that is good but passed on

If this is the case WW will be back....I dont see why he would continue classes and then go pro...if I was set on going pro I would spend my time lifting or rehabbing

i think he has to keep the option open just in case he doesn't do well at camps or doesn't get the kind of grade he anticipates... but yeah, im moving in the direction that maybe tmg was the problem all along, maybe he thinks he shoulda been the man over willie... i kinda have the feeling willie got a bad rap this season...

I could live with that lineup, but I honestly don't think WW is PG right now. He's strong but he turns the ball over a lot. Staying another year would give him a chance to work on it and prove to the NBA that he can handle it .... if they have any doubts.

On the Terrence Jones possibility, I'm not hopeful..... After the season the Sooners just had, if I was a kid on the west coast who has his choice of playing anywhere he wants, why would he go to half-way across the country where the team just imploded late in the year? I don't see any compelling reason for OU except playing time...... and if he's that good, he can play anywhere.

I do have a lot of hope for Cameron Clark, but he will be a true freshman with a lot of adjusting to do.

Because his mamma would kick his butt? She seems like the kind of lady that would want Willie going to class, even if he planned on dipping out.

I just don't see that lineup happening. Jones isn't coming to OU if Tiny is here. Clark would be MUCH better off not having to start from day 1. And Cade is much more effective guarding 3's and small 4's, then 2's.

Capel needs to put together a better roster than that, if we really hope to Dance next year.

As of right now, it's true.

Who know what could happen between now and the end of the semester, but it would be a shock if he comes back.

 

[dubyac]

does "gone" mean off the basketball team, or off the team and out of school??

 

[NickZepp]

If he doesn't want to come back why do we want him?

Mike -- any more info you can provide? I'm guessing he is still going to class which is why you mention "between now and the end of the semester".

Is this his choice or Capels choice or mutual?
