Dre is a one inning guy. Should have gone straight to Boehm.

So it sounds like OU is taking the NIL approach of 'let's just push all our chips in for one player'. I guess in their defense that is probably their best approach in a sport like basketball that probably gets very little support.

Trilly is referring to that Trilly Donovan twitter account that has a lot of inside info

My understanding was the free year counted as the redshirt year if you had not already used your redshirt. So if you were a true freshman for the 2020-2021 season, you could play like normal and would enter the next season as a redshirt freshman with 4 years remaining to play 4 seasons. So this should be the last batch of guys using the extra year.

This is the last year. Shedrick was a freshman when they got the “free” year.

Was in the thread last night discussing how and why the coach is getting fired. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Being ranked was never a stretch, especially with Mercer and Storm on the roster. The core of JT, Powell, Brown being back set a solid floor offensively. I think everyone here thought LBJ, Witt and Hurley set a good floor with the staff. None of us expected Hurley to be Superman but it wasn’t much to expect him to be a decent Sunday/midweek guy. I was listening to a Jay Johnson interview the other day and he said something like “when you hit bumps in the road, your best players need to be your best players to get you through”. And I think that sums this thing up well. Think about how executed we were to get LBJ, Witt, Brown, Powell all back. There have been several times this year where any of those 4 could have lifted this thing up and it’s mostly been a lot of nothing.

Give me a fucking break. No one is happy with what we are watching but stop with the shock value statements like we would go 0-30.

Nah. This was a preseason top 20 man. A lot of shit went wrong, some of it bad luck and some of it self inflicted, but it was never supposed to be a lame duck season. It was supposed to be LBJ and Witt anchoring the rotation with Porter Brown hitting 20 bombs in the heart of the order with Powell and JT ahead of him on base and Will Mercer getting 10 saves, all of which seemed realistic in January.

It’s over man. He has very few people in his corner and has used all his get out of jail free cards. His best hope was going on a postseason run but this team ain’t making the postseason as things currently stand.

White flag

The hope 3-4 weeks ago was there were games we hit really well and games we pitched relatively well but they never seemed to be at the same time. Haven’t done either well for weeks now.

This guy who entered was scheduled to start the game tomorrow

That’s on the Houston staff for not seeing him grab his elbow after the strikeout. Let him throw another pitch.

Should have been a 2-run homer and would have been if the roles were reversed for that review.

Hahahahahaha how on earth do you overturn that

They said Jelkin was dealing with arm fatigue or something similar a few weeks and he threw out of the bullpen against K-State before making a normal start against TCU and being skipped completely against Tech. Not sure about Jean but he was roughed up his last two outings. Jelkin and Jean are two of the better pitchers in the conference so it would be a fortunate break for us if neither is available.

A basketball poster on the OU on3 site who seems to be reputable said that OSU met with Brandon Garrison yesterday and upped their NIL offer to 300k to try to get him to return. He apparently told OSU the offers he has been getting from other schools, including Texas, are at least 2x what OSU is offering. This is for a dude who, while extremely talented and has a ton of potential, averaged 7 points and 5 rebounds last year. Lines up with what Gerry has been saying on OTF about the asking prices being out of control this cycle.

That is a fake Twitter account. There is no Chris Reynolds who works for 247. Same account also tried to say Wade Taylor entered the portal last night.

The starting pitcher for UH tonight is the pitcher from this video

This Kent guy for Indiana State had pretty good numbers again the best competition they played: -14 points, 4 rebounds against Bama -12 points, 3 rebounds against Michigan State -7 points, 10 rebounds again Drake -6 points, 20 rebounds in the second matchup against Drake -22 points, 9 rebounds in the MVC final against Drake -35 points, 9 rebounds against SMU in the NIT -16 points, 7 rebounds against Cincy in the NIT -13 points, 7 rebounds in the NIT final against Seton Hall

Another Indiana State guy we are in on

Guys, that video is from over a decade ago when he was an assistant at BYU and did some video for a ceremony at Kentucky for the ‘96 national title team.

Jamie Shaw (On3 national basketball guy) with some portal intel on a few guys PG Julian Larry, Indiana State INTEL: Julian Larry started 108 games over his four seasons at Indiana State. The 6-foot-3 lead guard who is originally from Frisco, Texas earned first-team MVC All-Defense for the second consecutive season this year. He finished second in the league with 188 assists and he led the MVC in steals with 59. I am told Larry will take his first visit this weekend, and Texas will get the visit. One source told me that the visit is worth monitoring. Larry, who shot 46.2 percent from three on the season, has also heard from programs like Kansas, Kansas State, Oklahoma, Texas Tech, and others. His Indiana State head coach Josh Shertz was recently named the head coach at Saint Louis. I am told that he will go through the recruiting process, so continue to see where he sets visits. PF Carey Booth, Notre Dame INTEL: Carey Booth, the son of Denver Nuggets General Manager Calvin Booth, is a former top 100 prospect. The 6-foot-10 Booth ended his freshman year at Notre Dame with 19 starts in 33 games played. In his starts, Booth averaged 7.1 points and 5.0 rebounds. When I spoke with Booth last week, he mentioned programs like Ohio State, Illinois, Colorado State, Michigan, Texas, and Illinois. Booth has scheduled his first two official visits. He goes to Illinois on April 12 and then to Colorado State on April 14. Illinois gets Booth on campus first. Continue to watch for a commitment timeline and if he goes on any other visits.

Visitors expected in the next 10 days according to Gerry Chris Youngblood, G, USF (15.3 PPG, 40% from 3) Robbie Avila, C, Indiana State (17.1 PPG) Julian Larry, G, Indiana State (11 PPG) Brandon Garrison, C, Oklahoma State (expected to visit for spring game next weekend) Malik Mack, G, Harvard (17.2 PPG) Jordan Pope, G, Oregon State (17.6 PPG) Rytis Petraitis, F, Air Force (15.7 PPG)
