You may need to elaborate on this... or run it by a geography teacher.

To start season only 1 was a freshman, and due to how things unfolded he went with youth during post seasin and its paying off.
Didn’t realize that and truly is amazing. Great story and hope y’all finish the job.

Lot's of folks acting like this is over. I watched OU lose 7 of 9 to end the season and then take bow out after one game in the SEC tourney. Every game I keep waiting for them to turn into a pumpkin....

Yup. Rager was our day 3 starter early season. The “older” Mercurius was day 2. The younger Mercurius was a middle reliever. And now its flipped. The older Mercurius relieves and younger Mercurius starts.

That’s nuts. But that’s actually what good coaching looks like, willing to think out of the box.

So you fricksticks were just sitting on monster young arms all season while crapping yourselves throughout SEC play?

Hitting almost 60 points above your season average and in the tourney helps too.

My grandmother, on dad's side, retired as 1st and 2nd grade teacher in Maypearl. Both my parents graduated from Waxahachi HS. Had a great grandmother with one of the "Gingerbread" houses on E. Marvin. Know that area well. 989 is a lot more people than when I was a kid going there, I am 77 now

Help me understand the primary goal of the team you support. Historically OU has focused on national championships.
