@OKSTProbs@OldRowSports It’s so freakin dumb to be “too cool” to storm the field, and I’m glad that the TooCool fans in our fanbase are being called out tonight!
@Mason_Young_0@SoonerScript So when the students don’t get excited about riding a bus, they’ll be blamed again, when it certainly wasn’t them who chose to build an arena 5 miles from campus. 👎 👎
@freverett@GeorgeStoia I’m in your camp: the ONLY way to fix the basketball programs is to get students excited about it, and the only way to do that is to keep the games on campus near campus corner, which McCasland is. Building a new arena 5 miles away near Embassy Suites won’t solve anything!
BOOO!
@stevebullard And even after physically picking up Dolby and putting him in the right place pre-snap, Stutsman correctly predicted where the ball was heading and almost made an interception on that play. Pumped that he will be leading the defense again next year
@TheLostOgle I was prepared to be super angry, but I’m now both amused and relieved!
Glad you pointed out that having the Thunder bumps the city up from being compared with the likes of Wichita and Little Rock to now being compared with San Antonio and other cities tourists actually go to.
@OUInsider @BrodyLusk Love this article!
5000 fans packed into a 5000-seat basketball arena > 5000 fans spread out in an 11000-seat oval concert venue.
And: STUDENTS create atmosphere, not rich donors. That’s why it’s vital to have an on-campus arena. Moving further away from dorm is the wrong move!
@JoeCJr29@tboehmmd I don’t think it’s an either/or situation. You can’t have BOTH? You don’t grab a donut out of the vending machine mid-afternoon. You don’t grab a donut at the convenience store (if u do, you’re not a serious donut-eater).
@GeorgeStoia@SoonerScoop The arena would have to be built to perfection to offset the fact that it’s off-campus. And here’s what tells me it won’t be built to perfection: “multi-use facility”. Sounds great for city of Norman, but sounds like only a modest improvement to the Sooner hoops fan experience👎

Random question: is there a chance that OU-Tex will no longer be played on the 2nd Saturday in October after the move to the SEC?
