What could have been

[soonerborn77]

it was tough reading this article breaking down this week's game and seeing how Damion James aka. Benedict Arnold is now the big xii all time leading rebounder and this guy calls Scottie Reynolds one of the great college players in the last 10 years.

OU was really close to having a national championship caliber team, but the phone calls ruined it. Damion James, Scottie Reynolds, Blake Griffin, Taylor Griffin, Tony Crocker, etc.

So close....

I know, imagine if we had a floor leader like Reynolds and another big body inside with Blake last year. Oh well....

If Damion came here, Taylor was going to transfer. So we would likely not of gotten Blake, fwiw.

Why? Most teams play 3-4 bigs, and Taylor came off the bench most of his career anyways.

Personally, I'd rather cheer for a team that runs a clean program.

Under Kelvin, Taylor thought he was going to be played over by Damion. So, he basicially told KS that he was transferring when/if DJ came. If he transferred, KS chances of getting BG were very little. BG wanted to play college ball with his bro or otherwise go to Duke or UNC etc.
