Why can't OSU recruit a damn big guy?

[thebigabd]

I feel like OSU does the same thing every year. Good guards, no bigs. They mention Cobbins, but he averages 4 points a game, dude is a scab.

When was the last time OSU had a really good center or power forward? Mario Boggans? How long ago was that?

Does Ford just not care about post players? Is their "system" (whatever it is they are doing) just not appealling to big guys? Don't really understand what they are doing.

Travis ford feels really insecure around them

They were no different than OU coming into the season. We'd look just like that if Spangler went down.

They'd be a lot better if they played in more of a system. You can tell Lon's guys are coached up, while Ford is letting them do as they please. I think that really hurts osu at times.

But losing Spangler isn't comparable to losing Cobbins.

Pfft... OSU doesnt have anyone on the same planet as Spangler. Cobbins is a big time scab, not even in the same universe as Spangler.

OU also has some bigs coming in next year and Spangler for a few more years.

OSU has more guards and some guy from Bixby coming in that seems highly rated. Not sure he is bruiser in the paint though.

Turner and Elijah Thomas are in on visits soon. That would be a start
