    USA today super early 2017 poll

    #28 shows great respect for Tulsa given we do not know who our QB will be next year.

    TU Bowl Rumor

    I think with our win and Houston's loss, we will play in Birmingham versus an SEC team, possibly Vanderbilt?

    Garrett UFA

    For the most part, the draft is based on "best available." At the end of the draft, Garrett was still only the 8th best available player on the board according to the experts. I thought he would get drafted but never did I think he would go in the 3rd round. Nonetheless, he will do well and...

    Michigan Game Thread

    Woodard and Birt are 1 of 12 for 3 points. They need to go for 20 tonight to win. Right now I would settle for 10 more. Woodard has been a complete bust this game. I love him but he hasn't done anything and seems lost out there. Champions make plays. Be a champion Woddard!

    Michigan Game Thread

    I think that was a 19-4 run over the last 9 to 10 minutes. Looks a lot like the Memphis game. Our defense is lacking and we can't hit open shots. We have to out rebound them on the offensive glass in the 2nd half, make some FT's and stop turning the ball over to win. We also have to make...

    TU - UH game thread

    Thoughts so far: 1. Ward for Houston is amazing. 2. Houston's offensive line is dominating us on the outside. Great blocking schemes. 3. Tulsa is great on 3rd and 4th down. 3 stops on 4 don in the first half! 4. We have to continue to hit slants and quick outs. Running up the middle on 3...

    Tommy Hudspeth

    Yes very sad. Tommy is a close family friend and neighbor of my father. We have spent a ton of time together over the years and he will be missed. RIP

    Jordan Clarkson finished 7th in

    Youngblood, the "league" will find you if you have talent; there is no question about that. It's just easier to get in to the first round and receive the guaranteed money if you have proven it at a higher level of competition. The names you mentioned above make up less the 1/10th of a percent...

    Jordan Clarkson finished 7th in

    Clarkson did what he thought was best to help him achieve his goals of playing in the NBA. He was a strong player in the SEC and this certainly made him more marketable to the NBA. Like it or not, he did the right thing for himself and it paid off. I hated he left but in all situations, you...

    Jordan Clarkson finished 7th in

    12 PPG on 45% shooting and took 10 FG per game. He played 25 minutes per game and was very impactful on a horrible team. He is very deserving of this recognition and the NBA is all about being selfish. This is not a knock on the kid; it just means he can do it! Quit hating because he jolted...

    Tulsa Basketball ranked #21

    We will be better for sure and our BIGS will be better, especially TK. As far as what Haith did this year with recruiting, I think it was less about Haith and more about the depth of our returning talent. The higher rated recruits didn't want to ride the bench or red-shirt and that was likely...
