    Congrats TU softball

    I kinda agree that SB is probably TU's most consistently strong program right now. A lot of credit, of course, should go to coaches Bargfeldt and Strimple. I wouldn't be surprised if the AAC gets at least 3 teams in the dance this year - TU, Houston and probably WSU. And possibly a Florida...

    Temple game thread

    Didn't know that, but I'm good with it.

    TK Edogi

    I think our main problem this year was not having that big post inside, In this league, we just give too much away having to play our 4s in the 5 spot.

    Temple game thread

    Bingo! That may put the fear into some of the teams in the AAC tourney. Ive never seen a game that lopsided at any level of basketball. And some of the ESPN people were pushing Temple as a possible dancer before this game. One more win in the AAC tourney and we will be bubbled with 20 wins...

    Gragg going to Arky as AD?

    This!!!!!! His name alone would bring people and money in. And how many schools have a REAL player as AD? Hire him and then put up a statue alongside Glenn's!

    OSU

    Lawpoke, how was their attendance? Do you think the possible NCAA sanctions will effect that? I still think the worst thing that could happen is if they have to make changes at the top in the middle of the season. IMO they need a backup plan and backup coach if that occurs.

    TU blasts Missouri S&T and appears ready for season -- Larry Lewis

    The thing that I like so far is the new kids from Edmond - Jeffries and Scott. They will definitely contribute. It also looks like Taplin has his shot back. I was glad to see how clean the 3 pt shots were from everyone and they just didn't hug the 3 pt line which should mean they have good...

    Best team won

    What was amazing to me after I saw the game again is that we were behind 10-0 early on. That means we then outscored them 45 to 7 in the final 3 quarters. Unbelievable! :D

    Pat Jones

    Its a diversionary ploy. He probably wants a real job.

    Basketball pre-season rankings

    I went to the pregame scrimmage and I thought we looked better than expected athletically. What we need is to have the newcomers mature quickly and contribute immediately in the exhibition games. Then its just a matter of daily work habits and understanding everyone's role. What I think we...

    Recruiting

    Until we can successfully get every local recruit to stay put, I will be somewhat disappointed in recruiting. But unlike some programs, I want it kept clean. Cough, cough . . . . . .SMU.

    TU vs SMU

    So we have beaten #1 Stanford and tradition rich SMU and tied Wisconsin, I checked to see our ranking and we aren't. Why is that?

    Who will be the most improved player ?

    I'm anxious to see Curran Scott play. From what I heard from the Charlotte folks he was the real deal. And of course I'm partial to the Oklahoma kids. But I hated to see Edogi leave. I wanted to rename him "Edunki" for his thunderous slams that ignited the crowd.

    Scandal involving OSU coaches

    The worst thing that could happen to OSU is with all these NCAA investigators hanging around, would be even more infractions discovered and Boynton would then have to be replaced at midseason. That's why I think they should be proactive and do the replacing now. Strike "before" the iron gets...

    Scandal involving OSU coaches

    Thanks. Didn't know that, but from the optics of the OSU program right now, it might be in their best interests to at least interview Scott. He has a pretty clean background at a religiously based school and with deep connections in Stillwater. Most of OSU's problem right now is perception...
