Best OU athletes - sibling edition

[MI Sooner]

While I'm sure there are tons of athletes from lesser known sports I'll miss, it struck me that OU has had a number of high-profile sibling athletes. Who are the best in school history? Off the top of my head:

Selmon brothers
Owens brothers
Griffin brothers
Bookout brothers
Paris sisters

I figured that this was brought up before, but I couldn't find anything after a couple searches.

Don't forget the Cabbinesses.

EDIT: Okay, so maybe they weren't so high profile. But still.

The Jones brothers, Jarvis and Landry.

I think it's pretty remarkable that we have several national award winners who had a sibling who was a solid contributor too.

The Schultz Brothers -

The Schultz brothers are the first brothers in U.S. history to win Olympic titles.

I surprised no one has mentioned them.

[nativesooner]

[SunnySooner]

The Lashars. Wish Mr. and Mrs. Lashar had had one of those change-of-life babies, we'd have us a kicker for this year!!

Maybe R.D. or Tim have a son we can look forward to. ;)

Tabor twins have a restaurant in ardmore.

What's the name of their restaurant in Ardmore. I drive through there to get to my Mom's house in Tishomingo. I might have to stop and try it.

[OrlandoSooner]

Reading some of these "lesser known" siblings reminds me of Stacey Kings quote.



I'll always remember this as the night that Michael Jordan and I combined for 70 points.
Said after Michael Jordan scored a career high 69 points and Stacey King scored 1 point against the Cavaliers.

[Mississippi Sooner]

It's called the Prairie Kitchen. The Tabors, like some other Sooner players, originally bought into The Kettle franchises, but I think all of the former Kettles have become Prairie Kitchens.

[pweitkem]

Horace and Harvey Grant.

you can see it from I-35. it's about exit 31a or 31b.
we've eaten there several times over the years, i like it.

Which Tabor owns that one? Any idea? Isn't there one of those in Ada as well? We're heading down to Ardmore next month, I may have to stop in and buy some food for an autograph. :D

[texaspokieokie]

i think both Tabors are involved in ownership. they don't run it.

[nativesooner]

cool. I have an old picture of Paul and Billy Sims. I had Billy sign it and he said to go to either Ada or Ardmore to get Paul too. I just laughed because I couldn't picture either being in the back cooking it up. :D

[OUEngr1990]

Stoops brothers, oops you mean athletes..:D

[OUEngr1990]

I would think the Selmon brothers, clearly..

[Soonerson1975]

[owenfieldreams]

Karl & John Milstead

[stoopified]

[texaspokieokie]

Selmon brothers, and it's not even close.

it may or may not be close, but the Burris brothers were some super studs,
& there was 5 or 6 of them.

must be something in the water, eufala ain't that far from Muskogee.

i wonder if any other team has had 3 brothers in the middle, like the Selmons ???

[stoopified]

Darryl and Terry Ray

The hotts(1920's football players)

Jeff and Steve(Dr. Death) Williams

The Schultz Brothers -

The Schultz brothers are the first brothers in U.S. history to win Olympic titles.

I surprised no one has mentioned them.

+1 You can't do any better than an Olympic Gold medal.

I remember watching them when I was at OU. It was like Dave had ESP. He'd counter an opponent's move seemingly before the guy even started making it.

[101sooner]

Lot's of great ones.

If I had to pick two best all-time I'd go with the Selmon and the Shultz brothers.

For those of you that don't remember the Shultz Brothers (Dave and Mark)

Mark: 3 NCAA titles, 2 World Titles, Olympic Gold

Dave: 1 NCAA tile, 1 World Title, Olympic Gold

There is so much more to both of there resume's it almost seems impossible.

Grant and Barry Burget
