anyone know much on him? ive been looking at the guys we are recruiting for basketball a lot lately & he seems pretty good & i figure he knows a lot about the OU program considering his dad was an assistant with Kelvin. IF the TMG rumors are true i wonder if he puts OU at the very top?

First question before any questions on his mad court skillz...

WHAT IS HIS ATTITUDE LIKE?!

At this point, I'd rather have a bunch of Kellen Sampsons running around than Mickie D's All Americans.

I'd pump the brakes on that statement. Be careful what you wish for. While Kellen was a great teammate and great Sooner, I'd be first in line to take that All-American you are giving up to take Kellen. Kellen might have gotten more minutes if he had gone to a smaller mid-major, but he was never good enough to be a starter here let alone 6th, 7th, or even 8th man off the bench.

That being said I'm sure Kellen would be more than capable of beating just about any one of us on this board in some one-on-one.

I would pump the brakes too... but I have anti-lock brakes on my crazy statements, thank ye very much :)

The reason I'd love some Kellens running around is because he worked so hard in practice every time I saw him. A few Kellens combined with a Mickie D and suddenly there's pressure for the AA to work hard and not get shown up by the bench warmer.

I am totally fine with Capel recruiting All-Americans. I just hope he brings in more Kellens or even better, more Otts and Cades. Mmm, eye candy :D

One thing's for sure, whoever comes here is going to get plenty of playing time. We're pretty much Baylor circa 2003, except we can still play a non-con schedule so far.

He did take a visit to OU and still has many friends in Norman from the time he spent here while his dad was an assistant under Sampson. My sources tell me that before TMG declared he was leaving we had zero chance of landing McCallum. Now that TMG is gone for sure Ray has taken a second look at the Sooners, but he is still most likely to end up at Detroit (where his dad now coaches) or UCLA.

i was thiiiinking.. i wonder if Kellen talking to Ray could maybe impact his decision & convince him to come here since kellen has probably known the kid since he was wee little? hmmm. for some reason i just really want him to come to OU.
