Release: 11/05/2005

Taj Gray, picked by Big 12 coaches as the conference's preseason player of the year, scored the first 11 points of the game and finished with 26 points and 11 rebounds. He scored seven before the Redmen attempted their first shot.

It was a somewhat lackluster performance offensively for Oklahoma, which kept Gray, Bookout and Everett in the game until the final few minutes. The Sooners were 0-for-11 from 3-point range and 10-for-20 at the free-throw line.

Bookout, who had surgery Sept. 15 to reposition a troublesome nerve in his right elbow, wore a protective wrap on the elbow and finished with 13 points and 16 rebounds. Everett scored 10 points, all in the second half.

Can anyone explain why the NSU Redman is green?

Release: 10/19/2005

In what could be best described as "a good old-fashioned house cleaning," Redmen head coach Larry Gipson will welcome 11 new players into the NSU fold in 2005-2006.

"I have never been more excited about the start of a season, yet so in the dark." Gipson said.

Only two players return from NSU?s sub-par 8-19 squad of a year ago. Ty Merchant (6-2, 185 Sr., G/F) and Pat Moore (6-8, 230, Sr., C) return from the 2004-2005 campaign, while Sid Melvin (6-3, 205, Sr., G) returns after sitting last year out. All three will be expected to play leadership roles, especially early. According to Gipson the players have a great work ethic and are quick and athletic.

"The mystery will be how long it takes the guys to pick up the system and mesh together as a team," Gipson said.

OU will depend on aggressive defense - as all Kelvin Sampson's teams do. They lost three good players and it will take them time to adjust.

Looks like NSU snatched 2 players from fellow Mid-Con team Centenery. Both players are post players and are among 9 other new players on their squad this year. Check out the link below to see their roster.
