Bookout running off the court with Sampson at the end is one of the best moments in OU bball history.
I was at that game... To this day my Uncle and Grandpa, both die hard Powder Cats, will swear upon their grave that Bookout touched that ball...
Bookout was the arm raisingest player I've ever seen. Didn't matter when or how the guy scored, he'd go run back on defense arms raised above his head like he just hit a homerun in the little league world series.
Also remember him getting a steal in a bedlam game in Norman, and seemingly running from halfcourt to the basket without dribbling before dunking it. And then, of course, raising his arms in celebration as he ran back.
If I remember; Drew to Xavier, LMac to Minnie, Godbold never got any credit, TEverett smoked up and I really enjoyed watching him play, most of the time, Bookout was the most unathletic to ever play by some, Gray was actually better than he probably should have been, benefited from Everett and Bookout, Gilbert was solid and worked very hard, hated to see him shoot a free throw.
