This could get interesting...

This will be quite a bit more difficult than football, since there are no 16 thru 19s in b-ball, along with much fewer b-ball pics that can be found on the innernets.

[okienole3]

Why aren't there 16-19? I always wondered why OU just recycles the same numbers year after year.

[King Crimson]

back inna day, in HS basketball there weren't 6-9 numbers so the refs could signal fouls to the scorer with a single hand.

Thanks. I figured that out after I typed the question. Dumb question on my part.

[the_ouskull]

Well, if you won't pick up the ball and run with it, I certainly will...

And I only posted Brandon Foust because there are no pictures of Tyrone Jones floating around out there.

[the_ouskull]

...and because he's awesome. He single-handedly won us that one game that they won that one year.

Did you all see the atricle on sportsline that rated WW as the #1 SG in the country? Pretty cool

[SoonerAcesUp]

I read on an article on Soonersports.com that one publication picked WW as the favorite to win national player of the year. I was shocked but I hope they're right. It's gonna be a fun season. Hopefully the young guys can ball at the college level.

[Sooner98]

What? No pictures of Oleg Reztsov out there? GRRR!!!

[okiewaker]

Can't wait for this year, and NBA as well. Should be a fun season.

[IronHorseSooner]

This team should be fun to watch! Tiny and WW should worth the price of admission, alone.

OK....a basketball.

It's that round orange thing right?

It's been awhile. Thanks in advance.

I want one. (Big 12 trophy)
Actually I want two. (Big 12 regular season and Big 12 tournament)
For each team, for a total of four trophies.

:D

[soonerfan28]

Will we get to see any baskeball games on TV before the season starts.

[the_ouskull]

No, but only because they don't air games before the season starts. It defeats the purpose. :P

What, no more counting down? Awww, crud. Do I have to do math to figure out what number we're on?

I don't mind if others post "better" numbers, just as long as they're posted! We gotta support our team here!

Thankfully WW was en fuego that game, or we would have lost.

we should have won this game by 10, but hey.

[Sooner04]

That Baylor game was nuts. Middle of the week, 8500 in the stands, but pure chaos the last five minutes and ALL of OT.

Weird thing was Taylor Griffin actually got a couple of fingers on the shot that put the game into OT and it still caromed off the backboard and went in.

How about Godbold's 3 vs. Tech:

Be sure and turn the volume way up for the moment at 0:41.

[Bourbon St Sooner]

I'll always remember Angelo for that Duke game when Dickie V was yelling "Start up the bus" with 10 mins to go and Angelo went off after that. Too bad his whole career wasn't as good as those 10 mins.
