Who are we still recruiting?

[soonerbms]

We desperately need bodies. Yesterday's press conference all but confirmed that Gallon is gone. As of right now, we will only have six scholarship players, none of whom can play center.

PG - T.J. Taylor
SG - Cade Davis, Stephen Pledger
SF - Cam Clark, Tyler Neal
PF - Andrew Fitzgerald
C - ?

It would have been nice if Ray Willis and Orlando Allen had stayed. I think both those guys would have tallied some minutes given the current situation.

Back to the point, however, who are we recruiting and who's seriously considering us? We need to sign at least three more players.

You forgot Kyle Hardrick...Gallon would make 8...I'd be surprised if we had more than 10-11 scholarship players next year...hopefully TJ Franklin and Ryan Randolph can produce as walkons...and what about the transfer Honore? Is he still with the program?

 

[Krugerfan52]

We need Tiny, Honore and either CJ Washington or Thompson. If we don't have at least 2 of those guys we are going to be way too thin inside.

I thought Hardrick and Honore were leaving. Gallon won't be back, so we can give up on that. As for the walkons, I think it's absurd to expect any contributions from those two.

 

[soonerbms]

Honore's not even on the roster on SoonerSports.com even though guys like Gallon, Mason-Griffin, Warren, Crocker, and Wright still are. I think he's long gone.

By your repeating this on various threads does not make it more true. Let's wait and see what happens.

It's pretty much the consensus on this board and in the media. Just because there are a few lunatic posters who want to hold onto some faint hope doesn't mean Gallon will be back.

 

[seniorsooner]

So the "fact" that it is the consensus on a message board and with the local media makes it true? Have you not learned anything from the past couple of weeks?

Capel said yesterday that Hardrick is not leaving. This is just a rumor created on this board from people that think he's no good and want him gone.

Ok, what evidence do you have that Tiny will be back? I'm dying to hear it. All I know is that Tiny took money from a financial adviser and an assistant coach lost his job over it, but I may be wrong. Please present your case.

Then I guess Capel is a lunatic because he doesn't seem to have given up yet.

What evidence do you have that he's gone???? None.

Dude I'm not sure why you're so fired up about this. Am I guaranteeing he'll be back? No. Am I saying it's a possibility? Yes. As far as "evidence", I have heard it from both Jeff Capel and Tiny Gallon's mouths that his status is undetermined at this time. At this point we just don't know. To say that there is absolutely no chance he'll be back simply because of something posted on a message board is kind of silly.

I felt this quote by Coach was directed at the Gallon situation. Maybe not.


"We want guys that have two feet in. We don’t want a guy that still has one bag packed and is looking to get out.”

When it said it, I thought he was talking about new recruits coming in but, I too, could be mistaken,

 

[j2d2]

Not my consensus. And I dont see anything like a majority thinking he wont be back-or that he will.

 

[SoonerTraveler]

Regarding Tiny, none of us "knows" whether or not he will be back. To continually argue the same point endlessly on multiple threads is fruitless, unless you guys actually enjoy doing this. Reading it is a bore, as it seems to appear in every thread and is inescapable.

So, anyone care to mention some players we're recruiting and a little bit about them?

How long until another thread like this pops up? 30 minutes? An hour?

I'll certainly wager that we see another one before the day is out.
