tmh8286 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I just got my hands on a 1969-70 media guide. Kind of interesting. With things a little slow on the board now, I thought I'd post a few pages of interest from it: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmh8286 Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 Both of these guys are still in Tulsa - Harris we talked about recently for the fact that over many years of coaching he never directed a single player from Booker T. Washington to ORU. Haywood Hill, last I knew, was still officiating basketball around the Tulsa area. I sat at his table a few years back at the pre-season barbecue.

tmh8286 Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 I thought it was interesting that they illustrated the modes of travel for the ORU team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmh8286 Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 How about THIS schedule??? I don't recognize a single school on there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmh8286 Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 BTW, I'm always looking for old ORU media guides. I'm particularly interested in ones from the 80's and 90's. If you have any that you'd be interested in parting with, let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have any that you'd be interested in parting with, let me know! I should have looked a little more closely - there are a couple of names I recognize that we played that year. But many I've never heard of - I wonder if they're still around - Sul Ross State - Bellarmine - Hiram Scott - Pershing College? This was only the fourth year of the program. I've also got a 1966-67 "media guide" - nothing more than a trifold flyer. Seems like I may have posted it before. It doesn't list any stats - there were no stats to list!! But it does seem like there is a list of teams played the previous year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theeagleman5 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Love those original powder blue unis....any chance ORU will ever wear those throwbacks in a game someday....maybe we should always wear throwbacks on Homecoming for us old timers....

jupiter2 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Very cool thread, indeed. I love looking back at old media guides. Interestingly enough, ORU played at Eastern New Mexico University (my alma mater) that season. The Greyhounds advanced to the 1970 NAIA Final Four and they won it all in 1969. Jupiter Out GO LOBOS!! GO HOUNDS!! GOD BLESS AMERICA!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
