It builds character though…. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm reminded of someone playing Five Card Draw asking for four cards. Perhaps it's better to just bluff with what you've got in your hand...or fold. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cornelius Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 BB Knight was the only guy on that roster who possibly had the ability to become a great player. If he goes somewhere where he can get minutes he could turn into something special. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Titan Posted March 24, 2023 Author Share Posted March 24, 2023 Tulsa had an ELEVENTH player enter the transfer portal today. This is easily the highest number of defections in D1, aside from the 14-man roster at St. Francis (NY), who is dropping their entire athletic department & programs effective June 1st. There are a half-dozen or so schools with 7 or 8 players in the portal, but almost are going through a coaching change. I have NEVER heard of a case in D1 where an ENTIRE ROSTER quit on a returning coach in the off-season. Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does that mean that @theeagleman5, @OKC Eagle, You, & I have a chance to play at TU along with Trey Phipps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORUTerry Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Curious… Talk about lack of continuity. I think that only leaves one scholarship player besides Seals (walk-on). Tulsa will be starting with clean slate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

titansforever Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 ... Was that the missing "o" from the word "too" in the other tweet? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Old Titan Posted March 28, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 28, 2023 Not a fan of referencing the other D1 schools in the state, directly or otherwise. Looks like they're living in "our" heads. ORU didn't even play two of the three, and let's face it: there's no comparing the schedules OU and OSU played in the Big XII that affected their records. Just celebrate the 30 wins, the conference titles both regular and postseason, etc. and don't poke the bear (especially if you're interested at all in scheduling a game with them). 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a fan - I'm SUPPOSED to be obsessed with the crosstown rival. Along with blocked-shot statistics and coaches' wardrobes. I guess I expect my alma mater to show a little more decorum. #ActLikeYou'veBeenThereBefore But don't take my word for that tweet crossing over the line of civility - check out the local media response: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
