Shaka Smart and Lon Kruger..

[Bookcat]

not even a fan rumor of their seats even being warm... Their teams are terrible....

but we're spoiled....Right? Frank gave us a taste and we want more of what we can never have. Settle in kids...could be a long finish to the decade.

Weird post

Depends what your definition of terrible is really.

Super young teams. UT is bringing in the PG they desperately need. Lon has young talent and is able to develop players well. They'll be above us in the standings in 2 years at the most.

We're just as young as ou or ut

We're just as young as ou or ut

OU is basically Jordan Woodard and a bunch of newcomers. We're more seasoned, by far.

Shaka is in year 1, with a little more than OU in terms of seasoned vets (but not by much, if at all). Leaving us, more seasoned.

Plus, in terms of what the standings will say in 2 years or so -- who you taking Lon, Shaka, or oscar?

Shaka is in year 2, Clevey.

[pvegs]

shaka in is year 2 and has a final 4. lon is lon. he'll be fine.

Shaka could be a flameout, who knows. He's never had a job at this level. Need at least three years to see what direction his trajectory is headed. Lon Kruger is a HOF coach. oscar Weber has plenty of track record and its super rough ridin' average. This is a dumb rough ridin' post, and the OP should do better in the future.

The op has a track record that is long as well

Shaka is in year 2, Clevey.

I stand corrected on the fact, but still think the substance of my post stands.

Lon, shortly to be found ahead of oscar in the conference standings.

Opinion poll time -- what is the probability that oscar could get a 5 star to Manhattan?

I'd say a decent chance if he was playing HS ball in MHK.

In fairness to oscar (I absolutely hate saying that), the kid grew up in Norman.  I would hope any 5* from Manhattan would be playing for the Cats, too.

"This is home," Young said during a ceremony before a packed auditorium at Norman North High School. "This has always been home for me."

True. But I'd give him a 50-50 shot of landing the MHK kid in this scenario. The Blake Griffin, Buddy Hield history of success might of been the key thing in this situation. Absent the recent high draft picks and last season's final 4 appearance, I think Young is more likely to be in Lawrence or Lexington.

Lon reloads.  We blow blanks.
