SEASON PREVIEW
Youthful Sooners rs feature nine newcomers; head coach Jeff Capel excited about team’s energy and program’s pro future
I
t’s not going out on a limb to say the Oklahoma men’s basketball team endured a disappointing 2009-10 season. A Sooner team ranked No. 17 in the preseason AP poll and picked by Big 12 Conference coaches to finish third in the league posted a 13-18 overall record and tied for ninth place in the Big 12. A combination of injuries (leading scorer Willie Warren missed 10 games), a reliance on young talent (47 percent of the team’s scoring came from freshmen) and a lack of strong veteran leadership all contributed to falling short of expectations.
Considering head coach Jeff Capel lost his top four scorers from that team, returns just three players who averaged more than 2.0 minutes per game and welcomes nine newcomers, preseason prognosticators will not have OU pegged nearly as high for 2010-11 as they did last year. For two reasons, Capel can live with that. One, as last year showed, predictions can be worth a hill of beans. But also comforting Capel is the fact that members of his new squad have infused the program with a strong work ethic, upbeat attitude and drive to succeed — traits not often displayed by last year’s team. Capel said his players have learned a valuable lesson since this time a year ago. “Winning isn’t necessarily a birthright,” said Capel, who is starting his fifth year at OU. “It’s something you have to earn. You earn it by how you work leading up to the season. You can’t just turn it on when the games start. It begins with your summer preparation — mentally and physically. That’s when you start to form your team. “I think because of how we performed last season, our returning players have a hunger. They have a desire to

not let that happen again. I think maybe they’ve worked harder (since the end of last season) than they’ve ever worked.” Capel said he hopes that self-realization and the resulting disciplined offseason approach will yield success. “There’s been a different energy around here and I’m excited about it,” said Capel. “I’m excited to see what we become. We still have expectations. We want to become the best team we can be — hopefully vie for one of the top spots in the Big 12 and make the NCAA Tournament.”
X BACKCOURT Cade Davis (6-5, 209, Sr., Guard) Steven Pledger (6-4, 212, So., Guard) Carl Blair (6-2, 209, So., Guard) Cameron Clark (6-6, 189, Fr., Guard/Forward) T.J. Taylor (6-3, 221, Fr., Guard) Calvin Newell (6-1, 193, Fr., Guard) T.J. Franklin (5-11, 177, Jr., Guard) Ryan Randolph (6-4, 201, Fr.-RS, Guard)
The player charged with the large task of leading OU’s band of youngsters is lone senior Cade Davis. The 6-5, 209-pound shooting guard made big strides last year after seeing moderate court time his first two seasons. As a junior, the western Oklahoma product started 27 games and averaged 9.9 points, 3.9 rebounds and a team-high 1.5 steals per contest. He was especially productive down the stretch, making 31 3-pointers and averaging 12.5 points over the season’s final 12 games. Capel will demand a lot from Davis this season. Not all of the expectations are court related. “We need his leadership,” said Capel. “We need him to be 100 percent invested in our team and to be the leader of
our team. Cade has a tremendous opportunity because I think he has guys who will follow him. He has guys who will work, will get in here and do extra stuff, who want to be a part of it. “He has to work at a very high level every day. He has to get to know all of these guys, know what buttons to push and when to push them. He has to learn how to get the most out of everyone.” As far as the tangibles, Capel said Davis had a good junior season but knows he can do more. “At times last year he was really, really good. One of the things we’re hoping for from Cade is that he can be consistently good. He can be a more consistent shooter. We want him to improve other aspects of his game like ball handling, driving the ball more off of shot fakes and getting to the foul line. He’s going to have to rebound at a high level for us this year. We really hope he can have a great senior season.” Joining Davis as the only other returning guard with significant game experience is sophomore shooter Steven Pledger. Like Davis, Pledger can get incredibly hot from behind the 3-point line. At times last year, the 6-4, 212-pounder was equally as cold. He scored 21 points in the season opener by going 4-for-5 from long range, and four games later against Houston scored 20 points in the first half. He was 19-for-40 (.475) on 3-point attempts over the first six outings, but over the next 14 games was 9-for-53 (.170). Pledger, from Chesapeake, Va., rebounded nicely at the end of the season by draining nine treys over the final two games. He finished the year with averages of 6.2 points and 1.5 boards in 18.9 minutes a contest. “I don’t know if I’ve seen any freshman ever shoot it like he did to start his career,” said Capel. “And then he went through a spell where he couldn’t make shots. Down

SEASON OUTLOOK the stretch I thought he got his confidence back and had some really good moments for us late in the year.” Capel likes what Pledger’s done since the end of last season. “He’s really worked hard on his body. He was around 220 or 225 last year and is down to between 210 and 215 now. We’d like to get him down to between 205 and 210. Hopefully, he can become more consistent with his shooting, can get better at using pump fakes and can improve his ball handling and defense.” A candidate to run the point, Carl Blair is an OU newcomer but has a year of Division I experience. The 6-2, 209-pounder from Houston, Texas, transferred from the University of New Orleans where he averaged 9.2 points, 4.4 boards and 3.7 assists last year as a freshman. He started in 29 games and over the last eight outings upped his averages to 13.8 points and 4.6 assists. Blair was one of nine players in the country last year to record a triple-double (13 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists in a Dec. 5 win over Houston Baptist). Since UNO has begun the process of reclassifying to Division III status, Blair will be allowed to play at OU without sitting out a year. That’s great news for Capel.
“Usually, you have peaks and valleys as a freshman. But Carl averaged more points in conference play than he did in pre-conference play. His last 10 games, his numbers went up even more. That’s a good sign. He wants to work and will play with a chip on his shoulder. Our guys love playing with him. He’s been one of our hardest workers since he arrived here.” The most ballyhooed member of OU’s 2010 recruiting class is 6-6, 189-pound wing Cameron Clark. Ranked as the nation’s No. 32 recruit by ESPN, No. 34 by Rivals.com and No. 39 by Scout.com, the Texas native was a two-time first-team all-state pick who last year averaged 23.7 points, 9.0 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.7 steals. Capel says Clark has the size, athletic ability and work ethic to make an immediate impact. “We identified Cameron very early in the recruiting process as a guy we had to have. He will be as athletic as anyone in our league at the wing spot. He also brings size and very good talent to the position. He comes from a great family and I think he will really embrace the culture of work here. He wants to be good and he’s not afraid of the work that it takes to achieve that.” Another freshman rated as one of last year’s top-100 high school seniors is combo guard T.J. Taylor. At 6-3 and 221 pounds, the left-handed Taylor can do a little bit of everything. He thrived at Denison (Texas) High School, finishing his four-year varsity career with averages of 23.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 5.8 assists. The three-time all-state selection was named MVP of the 2010 Texas High School Coaches Association All-Star Game and should vie for immediate playing time. “T.J. is very talented. I think he can provide some versatil-
Perhaps the most prolific scorer among OU’s newcomers is fellow combo guard Calvin Newell. The 6-1, 193-pounder hails from Philadelphia, Pa., and spent last year in prep school in Charlotte, N.C. There he averaged 26.1 points and 7.0 assists. As a high school senior in Pennsylvania, Newell earned first-team all-state honors after averaging 29.4 points and leading his squad to its first state playoffs appearance in nine years. Capel said he loves Newell’s grit. “Calvin is a scoring guard,” began the OU head coach. “He can really score the ball. I love him because I think he has a huge chip on his shoulder, in a good way. I think he can become a very good defensive player. He can score in a lot of different ways. He’s athletic, he’s strong, he can shoot it. He has really good speed. I love his Philly toughness. He’s seen a lot, has endured a lot of adversity
and he’s come out on top. We think he can help us and will provide some quality depth in the backcourt.” Completing the backcourt is a pair of walk-ons in junior T.J. Franklin and redshirt freshman Ryan Randolph. Franklin is a lively 5-11, 177-pound point guard who goes all out each day in practice. He appeared in 15 of OU’s 31 games last year, averaging 1.7 minutes. Franklin has made considerable improvement since stepping on campus two years ago and his work ethic is the chief reason. His walk-on status did not keep his teammates and coaches from naming him a captain, and he could be on the verge of playing a more pivotal role on game days. Said Capel,“Our guys respect T.J. so much because of how hard he works. He’s been a great practice player for us. At times late last year we had the confidence to put him in the game. There may be situations this year that he’ll have to play for us. We feel confident he can go in and give us quality minutes.” Randolph, who starred on the court and on the football field in high school (he led Bishop McGuinness High School to an Oklahoma state title as a quarterback), is a 6-4, 201-pound wing who decided to redshirt last year to help him adapt to the collegiate level.
SEASON PREVIEW
“Getting Carl Blair was really important for us because he brings the experience of playing college basketball. The level will be different, but the fact he was a Division I player last year and played against high-major teams won’t be new to him.
ity for us,” offered Capel. “Like so many of our guys, he feels like he has a lot to prove. He didn’t get a chance to play summer basketball a year ago because he broke his ankle. He didn’t get to go out on the (AAU) circuit, and so a lot of people haven’t seen him. We think he’s talented, think he has a toughness and a willingness to work and compete. That’s going to serve him well in helping him become a really good college basketball player.”
“Ryan felt like that would be the best thing for him so he could really work in practice and get used to the speed of the game,” explained Capel. “He’s been great to have on our team for so many different reasons. He’s a great kid, a competitive kid. We think a year of practicing against our guys has helped him become a better basketball player.”

While OU’s backcourt is comprised of mostly inexperienced talent, the frontcourt is even less seasoned with the return of just one big man who played regular minutes last year. Rare is the occasion that a sophomore who played less than 20 minutes per game as a freshman is looked upon as one of his team’s leaders. But that’s exactly the spot in which forward Andrew Fitzgerald finds himself entering 2010-11. Fitzgerald, who stands 6-8 and was a top-75 national recruit out of prep school, averaged 4.8 points and 2.0 rebounds while shooting .511 from the floor in 15.7 minutes a contest for the Sooners last year. The modest numbers don’t reflect the improvement he made as the season wore on — he averaged 13.0 points over a three-game February stretch that included a game at No. 1 Kansas in which he recorded career highs of 16 points and six boards — or the work he’s put in since it ended. X Lone senior Cade Davis is OU’s leading returner in minutes, scoring, rebounding, assists, steals and 3-pointers.

SEASON OUTLOOK “I think Andrew had as good a summer as anyone in our program the last couple of years,” said Capel. “He came in last year as a freshman at almost 270 pounds and he’s down to 231 now. He’s really reshaped his body. He’s made a commitment to it with exercise and diet, and he’s really worked on his game. If you look at our final 10 games last year, he really played well. You saw improvement. I think that gave him confidence to work even harder in the summer. We’re hoping he can make a big jump for us and become one of the better post guys in the Big 12.” OU’s only other returning frontcourt player is fellow sophomore Kyle Hardrick, a 6-8, 212-pounder who played a total of four minutes in three games last year. Like Fitzgerald, Hardrick has focused on reshaping his body. With some question marks surrounding the Sooners’ front line, he has to be ready if his number is called. “Kyle has really worked,” said Capel. “He didn’t play much as a freshman, but he had a good attitude. He’s continued to work to try to improve his game and to put himself in a position to possibly contribute in games.”
SEASON PREVIEW
Junior college transfers C.J. Washington and Nick Thompson are two of the six newcomers in the OU frontcourt. Each player, who has two years of eligibility remaining, caught Capel’s eye at the national tournament in Hutchinson, Kan., last spring. Washington, a Stringtown, Okla., native who starred at Connors State College for two years, earned first-team All-America honors last season after averaging 19.3 points and a school-record 13.0 rebounds. He was named the Region II junior college player of the year and led his squad to a 30-4 record. Possessing a nose for the ball, he recorded 25 double-doubles on the season (14 consecutive at one point) and ranked fifth nationally in rebounding. Capel thinks Washington, who is 6-7 and weighs 209 pounds, will find a niche at OU. “Our guys have been impressed with C.J.’s energy and his rebounding prowess,” said the OU head coach. “He had a reputation for that coming out of junior college. One of our big goals for C.J. this summer was getting him a little bigger. He’s really made progress. We think he can be the ultimate role player for us — a very important player who does all the dirty work. Every team needs that.” Thompson is a skilled 6-9, 208-pound forward from the College of Eastern Utah who can dribble, pass and shoot. He helped his squad to a third-place national finish last year by averaging 8.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 23.6 minutes per game. He shot .556 from the field and .399 from 3-point range (19-for-49). Capel likes Thompson’s blue-collar approach and the fact he can do a little bit of everything. Thompson’s OU teammates like him enough to name him a captain before ever suiting up in the Crimson and Cream. “Nick came in and put on about eight pounds in the summer. He’s not afraid of work and wants to be really good. He wants to be a part of something really successful, which is probably just as important as anything. He’s used to winning. His teams at Eastern Utah posted the two best records in school history. We think he can provide some versatility for us. He can be a good twoyear player.”

OKLAHOMA MEN’S BASKETBALL | 2010-11
Freshmen Tyler Neal and Abdul (“Abdi”) Ahmed bring depth to the frontcourt, and hopefully bright futures. Neal was Oklahoma’s Gatorade Player of the Year at Putnam City West High School. He led his team to a school-record 22 wins and its first appearance in the state tournament semifinals since 1977 by averaging 18.2 points, 8.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists. A matchup problem, the 6-7, 215-pound forward can fill it up from outside. He drained 45 treys as a senior and shot .421 from behind the arc. Capel is excited about Neal’s versatility. “Tyler Neal is talented. I think once he understands how to work at a high level consistently and once he gets acclimated to the speed of the game, his confidence will grow. Once that happens, he has the chance to be a good four-year player for us. He’s versatile, he’s more athletic than you think, he can shoot the ball from the perimeter and I think he has a pretty good feel for the game. He comes from a great family, is a really good student and a high-character guy. I think he can help us over his four years here.” The 6-10, 210-pound Ahmed, who hails from London, England, is the tallest player on the roster and has been playing the sport for just four years. He spent 2009-10 at Canarias Basketball Academy in the Canary Islands off the northwest coast of Africa, where he averaged 18.0 points, 12.0 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game. Capel is excited about Ahmed’s potential and appreciates his attitude on and off the court. “I think Abdi has a big upside, and he’s not afraid of work. He’s one of the guys who’s in the gym a lot on his own, trying to get better. He has a really good touch out to about 17 feet; he’s a pretty skilled guy. Although he has to improve physically, he’s not afraid to bang, not afraid to try to be physical. So when that part catches up with everything else, that’s when you’ll start to see the type of player that Abdi can become. But we love his attitude and his desire to work and get better.” In his second stint as a member of the team, junior forward Barry Honoré was with the Sooners for last year’s first semester but not the second because of disciplinary reasons. The thick 6-7, 258-pound transfer from
X Sophomore Andrew Fitzgerald
Southern University, who was the 2007-08 Southwestern Athletic Conference Freshman of the Year (averaged 8.8 points and 5.1 rebounds), met Capel’s offseason stipulations required to rejoin the squad. The head coach has a plan for him. “Barry’s had a great attitude and I think he’s learned a great lesson from last year,” said Capel. “He’s really worked hard for us and could help us this year. He has experience with his two years at Southern University and he’s a big, wide body. I’ve told Barry that the only ways he should worry about helping our team are by being physical, defending, rebounding and screening. He should never worry about scoring. If he can do those things at a high level, he could possibly see some time for us.” Good news and bad news surrounds OU’s final 2010-11 newcomer, Romero Osby. A transfer from Mississippi State with two years of eligibility remaining, the 6-8, 225-pound Osby is a big-body guy who can do damage inside or out. From a talent standpoint, he’s probably one of the top players on the team. Unfortunately for Capel, Osby has to sit out the season due to transfer rules. “I wish Romero could play right now,” said Capel of the forward who averaged 4.3 points and 2.6 rebounds in 13.1 minutes a game last year as a sophomore. “He’s a very talented guy we recruited out of high school. He had some really good moments at Mississippi State but was never able to put it all together. I think his year out (from game competition) will be really good for him. It will allow him to get his confidence back by working on himself. It will also help us in practice, because we’ll be playing against a very talented and hungry guy. I think being away from home and being here has already kind of reenergized him.” Osby’s assets go beyond his on-court talents, added Capel. “Romero’s a very mature guy, a very smart guy, a very competitive guy. I think he has outstanding leadership qualities. He’ll be able to help this team in so many ways this season, especially with the pride he’ll bring to it.”

LEADING RETURNERS
X Can you reflect on your gold medal USA Basketball
experience with the U18 team this summer?
“The games themselves were very, very good. It was great to see that team come together and to see the guys push themselves to limits they didn’t know they could. I really love how we won the gold medal, because we overcame adversity. We were down nine with 8:53 left and our guys showed a resiliency and a resolve that I’m not even sure they knew they had. You could really see and sense the level of pride on that team during those last nine minutes to get back in and win the game. For me as a coach, it was great to be a part of that.” X Is there anything else besides your association with
that gold medal that you were personally able to take away from the experience? “You have a chance to be around different coaches. During the trials, you have everyone from the committee there. You have a chance to pick their brain, talk to them about different parts of the game. Once we cut the team down to 12, it was (Georgia Tech head coach) Paul Hewitt, (Buffalo head coach) Reggie Witherspoon and myself. It was great to bounce different ideas off of them and just talk basketball for 16 days straight. It was great to be able to coach in the summer and to be around guys who bought into what we were doing, bought into being a part of something bigger than themselves. That’s what team is about. We didn’t have much time to become a team, but I thought we did become one.”
X Last year was obviously a difficult one, but were you
able to take anything positive away from it? What were some of the primary things you and especially the returning players learned from it?
“Winning isn’t necessarily a birthright. It’s something you have to earn. You earn it by how you work leading up to the season. You can’t just turn it on when the games start. It begins with your summer preparation — mentally and physically. That’s when you start to form your team.
X How do you describe the makeup of your team?
“We have experience in the backcourt with Cade Davis and Steven Pledger, and even a guy like Carl Blair, who has played college basketball (at the University of New Orleans). The only guy in the frontcourt who has experience is Andrew Fitzgerald. The rest of the guys are new to this level. They’re going to have to grow up very, very quickly. All of our news guys will. With our schedule, they’ll be thrown into the fire early. “We have to put our guys in positions when we begin practice in October to learn fast. It’s going to be challenging because we’ll have to be ready very quickly.” X What are your thoughts the upcoming season?
“I’m excited. I’m excited to see what we become. We’re young, but I do think we have talent. We have some deficiencies in some areas, just like most teams do. But I also think we have some strengths. My goal is to try to concentrate on those strengths and try to play to them. “The thing that our guys have got to understand — and I think they’ve gotten the picture — is that we can’t be pretty this year. Everything we do has to be with toughness, has to be while working hard and working together. It has to be with mental and physical toughness. It has to be about doing the little things very, very well. If we do that, we’ll give ourselves a chance in every game we play.”

“It was a great experience. Anytime you have an opportunity to represent your country, it’s a tremendous honor. The fact we were doing it in our home country made it even more special. We had a tremendous group of young guys who came together to be a part of something bigger than themselves.
“You have your new guys coming in, you have your returning guys. Every year is different, so you hope to establish some sort of leadership in the summer. We never did that last summer. You hope to establish a work ethic, and that usually comes from older guys in the program. That never happened the summer before last season. Hopefully, our returning guys from last year learned what not to do. Hopefully, they learned that when you don’t do those things you can’t expect to have success.”

SEASON OUTLOOK XTeam X Team captains Cade Davis,s Andrew Fitzgerald, d Nick Thompson and T.J. Franklin.
“I think that help has to come from guys like Andrew Fitzgerald or Carl Blair or Romero Osby. Even though Romero has to sit out this year, he has a great spirit, a great voice and a tremendous work ethic. We don’t want to overburden Cade because we want and need him to have a heck of a senior year.” X You’ve said that point guard is the most impor-
tant and most difficult position. What do you see from that spot on this team? “It’s been all Carl Blair, Calvin Newell and T.J. Franklin as we near the start of practice. T.J. Taylor hasn’t been able to really do anything because of a concussion (sustained in early September). I think those guys are coming along. Carl’s a guy who’s played in college. Calvin has got potential to play, but his strength is as more of a scorer. T.J. Franklin can get in and fill in some spots for us. It’s a position that we’re working with; it’s still in progress. But I like the guys we have and the attitudes they have. We’re looking forward to them continuing to get better.”
SEASON PREVIEW
X The Big 12 lost a lot of quality individual talent
good size at guard and on the wings. We can maybe look to post those guys some. We have to be really good defensively, and I think we have the potential to do that. Those are the strengths I’ve seen so far. As we go on and we start doing more team things, we’ll get a better idea of our strengths.” X You return just 28 percent of the scoring and 22
percent of the rebounding from last year. Are you confident you have guys who can pick up that slack and produce? “We probably won’t be as talented as we were last year. We lost two guys who were drafted (Willie Warren and Tiny Gallon) and another who was an all-conference player and thought he was an NBA player (Tommy Mason-Griffin). I don’t know if we’ll have anyone on our team more talented than those three, but I think we can be a better team. I think guys will understand how much we need each other. I think overall, perhaps we’ll have a little more quality depth. But mainly, we’ll have guys totally immersed in OU — with both feet in — and what we want to accomplish.”
X Have you ever had a team where even the sopho-
mores are going to be looked at as leaders?
“Not really, no. Maybe you could liken it a little to my first year here when we had David Godbold and Michael Neal coming back with significant experience and not really anyone else. Guys like Austin Johnson, Taylor Griffin, Longar Longar and Nate Carter really hadn’t played that much. Blake Griffin was a leader his sophomore year (in 2008-09), but that was completely different.” X Will you lean on what you learned during your
first year at Oklahoma?
“I’ll lean on that a little bit. I also had an experience as a player that’s somewhat similar to what we’ve gone through the last two years. As a freshman at Duke, we played for a national championship. As a sophomore, we were 13-18 overall and 2-14 in the ACC. We had two lottery picks on that team and another guy who was a second-round pick. We were talented, but we weren’t
10 OKLAHOMA MEN’S BASKETBALL | 2010-11
a good basketball team. We never came together; the chemistry wasn’t there. We lost a lot of close games. “We came back my junior year and, because of what we had just gone through, we didn’t want that to happen again. We were more talented when I was a sophomore, but our team was better when I was a junior because we were a team. We understood how much we needed each other. I thought guys made a commitment to work. Because of that, we made the NCAA Tournament, which was great for that team. I’ll look back on that experience as well to help push buttons as we try to become the best team we can be.” X You’ve got nine newcomers. What can you say
about them as a group?
“They’re a breath of fresh air. They bring a big-time energy into the program, and they’re talented. They work really hard, they’ve integrated easily into our program. The thing that I’m most impressed with is their willingness to work, their willingness to come in and do extra things. They’re not just talking about wanting to be good, they’re actually showing it with their actions. That’s refreshing to see. It’s something we hoped would happen, but it’s certainly happened more than we thought it would.” X Cade Davis has been through thick and thin dur-
ing his three years here. What are you looking for from him as the lone senior? “We need his leadership. We need him to be 100 percent invested in our team and to be the leader of our team. Cade has a tremendous opportunity because I think he has guys who will follow him. He has guys who will work, will get in here and do extra stuff, who want to be a part of it. “It’s a great opportunity for him to really step up and grow as a leader. He has to work at a very high level every day. He has to get to know all of these guys, know what buttons to push and when to push them. He has to learn how to get the most out of everyone. And he’s going to need help doing it.
from last year. Do you still see it as one of the top leagues for this season and how do you see the conference race shaping up? “I think it’s going to be a challenging year in the league and a tight race. The majority of teams lost at least their one or two best players, so I think that’s going to make things interesting. But there’s still a lot of talent. “When you’re talking about talent, you start with Kansas and what they return. Baylor may return the best player in the conference in LaceDarius Dunn. You may get a huge argument out of Manhattan, Kan., about that because of Jacob Pullen. Kansas State returns the majority of its team. Oklahoma State returns some good players and had a very good recruiting class. There’ll be some debate in Colorado about the best player in the league returning. They have two of the best in Cory Higgins and Alec Burks. Texas Tech returns the majority of its guys. “I think it’s going to be a really interesting year. It’s always competitive and it’s always tough to win.”
X How have Bryan Goodman and Dionne Phelps
re-adapted as assistant coaches and what do they bring to your staff? “They’ve been great. They’ve brought a jolt of energy to our program. I don’t know if people really realize that those guys have combined for more than 25 years of coaching experience. When you talk about ‘hot’ coaches, Bryan Goodman probably fell under that category just a few years ago when he was an assistant at Bucknell and with what they were able to accomplish. He had to get out of coaching for a little while to take care of his family when his wife had quadruplets. He has a passion — a passion for the University of Oklahoma, a passion for teaching. His character has been a huge plus for us. “Dionne Phelps has 16 years of college coaching experience, all in the state of Texas. Being in some of the places he was for all those years will hopefully help us in recruiting the state. Also, Dionne’s character, passion and energy will be contagious to the kids in our program and the guys we recruit. It’s been great for me to hear different voices and to have a different type of energy around here.”

PRESEASON NOTEBOOK FOUR CAPTAINS CHOSEN IN PLAYER VOTE Head coach Jeff Capel announced OU’s four captains on Sept. 17: senior Cade Davis, juniors T.J. Franklin and Nick Thompson, and sophomore Andrew Fitzgerald. “Cade, Fitz, T.J. Franklin and Nick were selected as captains because of the qualities they displayed in summer workouts and have shown thus far in our preseason program,” said Capel at the time. “We’ve had several players who have shown qualities of a captain, but these guys were selected by their teammates and have the full support of our coaching staff. I am confident they’ll do an excellent job of leading this year’s team.” The selection of Davis was no surprise as he represents the team’s lone senior and is its top returner in minutes, scoring, rebounding, assists, steals and 3-pointers. Fitzgerald played in 26 games as a freshman last year and is OU’s only experienced big man. Franklin is a walkon while Thompson is in his first year as a Sooner after transferring from junior college. For Franklin and Thompson to win the respect of their teammates and to be named captains, said Capel, speaks to the leadership they’ve exhibited and the example p they’ve set.

LLOYD NOBLE CENTER More Than $20 Million Worth of Improvements The Lloyd Noble Center expansion and renovation project was completed prior to the 2001-02 season. Featured was a 70,000-square-foot addition to the south side of the center with two new full-sized practice courts, one for men’s basketball and one for women’s. Both OU basketball programs also now boast new offices, film rooms, training rooms, locker rooms, spa/sauna rooms and a full-sized weight room. Prior to the 200708 season, a $3.1 million high-definition scoreboard and sound system was also added. The $20.2 million in additions and renovations has also enhanced Lloyd Noble Center for the wide variety of public events it hosts, including graduations, concerts and large meetings. These improvements include an expanded LNC parking lot, renovated arena ceiling and a modernization of the electrical systems. With the project, the OU athletics department has become a national leader in creating equal and outstanding facilities for both its men’s and women’s basketball programs. The addition of the practice facilities and the new and upgraded team and coaching facilities have already had a tremendous impact on the success of both programs, particularly in the areas of recruiting top players and providing unparalleled facilities for training. Proof positive is the pair of Final Four trips the OU men’s and women’s teams made in 2001-02, the new facility’s first year of existence. President David L. Boren said,“We are very proud to be the home of world class facilities for both men’s and women’s basketball. Thanks to the generosity of Sooner fans and alumni, our facilities are second to none in the United States.”

SOONER SPIRIT
Say it Loud, Say it Proud The University of Oklahoma has a long and storied history. The rich tradition has given birth to some of the most recognized pageantry in all of college athletics. These two pages look at the origin of some of the elements that create OU’s unique atmosphere.
from a pep club called “The Sooner Rooters.” The success of University of Oklahoma athletics teams over the years has made the nickname synonymous with winning.
OU CHANT The “OU Chant” is a loyalty song that is sung before every home football game, before and after every men’s and women’s basketball games and at the end of many athletic and university functions. Every fan who wears the official colors, each current student and student-athlete and all OU alumni are encouraged to stand and raise one finger in the air during the playing of the Chant – a symbolic gesture that shows those who do not know what it means to be a Sooner, the greatness of the university and the unity between all Sooners. The Chant was written in 1936 by Jessie Lone Clarkson Gilkey, who directed the OU girl’s glee club from 1936 to 1938.
SOONERS College sports fans are hard pressed to find a nickname that is as unique and as tied to a state’s history as a Sooner. The University of Oklahoma is the only school known as Sooners and those who claim they are Sooners say it with pride.
O-K-L-A-H-O-M-A Our chant rolls on and on! Thousands strong Join heart and song In alma mater’s praise Of campus beautiful by day and night Of colors proudly gleaming Red and White ‘Neath a western sky OU’s chant will never die. Live on University!
The Oklahoma Territory opened with the Land Run of 1889. Settlers from across the globe, seeking free land, made their way to the prairies of the plains to stake their claim. One of the few rules to claiming a lot of land was that all participants were to start at the same time, on the boom of a cannon. All settlers who started then were labeled as “Boomers” and those who left early were called “Sooners.”
BOOMER SOONER
OU athletics teams were called either Rough Riders or Boomers for 10 years before the current Sooner nickname emerged in 1908. The university actually derived its name
In 1905, Arthur M. Alden, a student in history and physiology whose father was a Norman jeweler, wrote the

One of the most recognizable college fight songs in the country,“Boomer Sooner” immediately evokes enthusiasm from OU fans and sends chills down the spines of those who dare to oppose them.
SOONERS
SOONER SPIRIT lyrics to the fight song, borrowing the tune from Yale University’s “Boola Boola” but improvising the words. A year later, an addition was made to it from North Carolina’s “I’m a Tarheel Born” and the two combined to form the university’s fight song today. Though the tune was first made known wn by Yale, the everlasting success of Sooner squads has taken the melody of “Boomer mer Sooner” to national popularity. Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner Boomer Sooner, Boomer Sooner Boomer Sooner, OK U! Oklahoma, Oklahoma Oklahoma, Oklahoma Oklahoma, Oklahoma Oklahoma, OK U! I’m a Sooner born and Sooner bred and when I die, I’ll be Sooner dead Rah Oklahoma, Rah Oklahoma Rah Oklahoma, OK U!
MASCOTS
In the fall of 2005, the OU Athletics Deparment introduced costumed mascots. The new characters act as an extension of the Sooner Schooner and its horses to be enjoyed by fans — especially children — at all OU athletics contests. The costumes feature traditional collegiate gear as part of their regular uniform, but don team uniforms for football and men’s and women’s basketball.
CRIMSON AND CREAM In the fall of 1895, Miss Mary J. Overstreet, the first female faculty member, and Dr. James Buchanan served on a committee that selected “crimson” and “corn” as the official OU colors, but local merchants had difficulty determining the color of “corn” for merchandise. Very quickly the colors evolved to officially be crimson and cream and later began to include red and white as well. That same year, OU Oratorical Society students proudly displayed the colors for the first time and chanted the new university yell, Hi Rickety! Whoop-te-do, at a contest in Guthrie, then the state capital. The student body approved with great enthusiasm and immediately pennants, banners, badges and decorations of every description appeared on the streets, in the windows, at chapel, in classrooms, and all public places; however, local merchants could not supply the demand. Even though the school colors have evolved to red and white over the years, you can ask any self-respecting Sooner what the colors are and they will proudly announce “Crimson and Cream.” On gamedays, a sea of crimson rolls through OU’s home arenas and all Sooners are urged to wear the official colors to show the rest of the country what school spirit and Sooner Pride is all about.
PRIDE OF OKLAHOMA The Pride of Oklahoma Marching Band has been supporting Sooner Spirit for more than a century. Unlike many other college bands, which began as military drill units, the Pride of Oklahoma had its beginnings as a pep band. In the early years of the 1900s, both townspeople of Norman and students of OU participated in a band that played for football games. Professor John Merrill started the first band in 1901, which was composed mostly of townspeople and disbanded after each football season. Lloyd Curtis, a cornetist, founded the first continuous student band in 1904. Today, the 300-member Pride of Oklahoma has members representing virtually every college and major on campus. The Pride of Oklahoma stands for excellence in musicianship, academics, school spirit and commitment to our role in the community. “Boomer Sooner” rings out at the end of each rehearsal, and that song is the defining element of the University of Oklahoma. Maybe that is why Sooner fans love the band so much. Not much can compare to the first “go-go” at a football game when the Pride of Oklahoma marches the interlocking “OU” down the field playing “Boomer Sooner.”

Seen most often at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium, the Sooner Schooner is a Conestoga — or covered wagon — reminiscent of the mode of travel used by pioneers who settled Oklahoma. The Schooner is powered by matching white ponies named Boomer and Sooner, and it ventures onto Owen Field in a triumphant victory ride after the OU football team scores. Although it was introduced in 1964, the Schooner did not become the official mascot until 1980. The Schooner is well-recognized by college athletics fans across the country.
During OU football and baseball games from 1915-1928, Mex the Dog wore a red sweater with a letter “O” on the side. Mex died of old age on April 30, 1928, and he was so popular among students and faculty that the university closed for his funeral and procession on May 2, 1928.

STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING Strength is Our Strength The University of Oklahoma boasts top-of-the-line facilities, equipment, and personnel when it comes to its strength and conditioning programs. All are intended to give studentathletes every opportunity possible to succeed in the athletics arena. It is no wonder, then, that the OU men’s basketball team is recognized as one of the strongest and most physical squads in the country, year in and year out. Says Jozsef Szendrei, a former OU and professional basketball player who is in his second season working with Jeff Capel’s Sooners, “The more you invest, the more the return. Our return is winning games. There’s no substitute for work. Everybody who has succeeded has worked their butts off.” Consequently, the OU basketball strength and conditioning program is almost a year-round operation. The arrival of the new school year begins a rigorous preseason program, with a bulk of the lifting and running exercises occurring early in the morning before players go to class. During this time, discipline, work ethic and team chemistry are developed. “I try to make the players understand that they have to respect each other,” says Szendrei. “But that respect has to be earned every day through work. Preseason conditioning is when you really start building the foundation of your team. It gets you out of your comfort zone. It makes you perform because your teammates see you. If you’re a leader, then you have to lead. Leadership is a privilege that’s earned every day. Respect is not given.”

Szendrei also stresses eating well and makes team breakfast mandatory following preseason workouts. He tailors individual nutrition programs to each player’s needs. “What we put in our bodies is very important,” says Szendrei. “We want special results, so we can’t eat average food. If you put in average fuel, then you’ll get average results.” The start of practice does not mean the end of weight training. The team lifts throughout the season to maintain the gains it makes during its offseason and preseason routines. “The weight room is just an extension of the basketball court,” says Szendrei. “Everything we do in there has to be related to basketball.” Following the season, the Sooners break for a period of recuperation and rest. Then it’s back to work during the spring and summer for the crucial offseason regimen in which tremendous improvement will be made in strength, weight, speed, explosiveness and mental toughness. Summer is also a critical time in which Szendrei teaches proper form and lifting techniques to the incoming freshmen. “I like to make sure the mind and body are in sync,” he says. “It’s very important with everything that we do — whether it’s lifting, running, speed work or on the court — that our minds and bodies are functioning together. One cannot perform without the other.”

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT Forming Friendships OU lives by a clear and strong motto in dealing with its student-athletes... Inspiring Champions for Today, Preparing Leaders for Tomorrow. To fulfill that promise, the athletics department and student-athletes take an active role in a number of community service projects. Sooner student-athletes are exposed to life outside of sports and school work with opportunities to serve and help others. The Student Athlete Advisory Council (SAAC) is a committee made up of student-athletes from all 21 intercollegiate athletic teams at the University of Oklahoma. The group coordinates community service programs for the Sooners each month. Oklahoma’s student-athletes recognize that wearing the Crimson and Cream means representing a popular sports program and themselves as individuals. They are encouraged to respond to a public that adores them, while learning important lessons about making a positive impact in the lives of others and in the community in which they live.
BOOMER SOONER!
Said OU senior guard Cade Davis,“Every young person has role models, and sometimes that responsibility falls on us — the student-athletes — to provide inspiration and friendship. The student-athletes at OU have done a remarkable job of embracing that responsibility by interacting with kids around the community, whether it’s making hospital visits, reading to elementary school classes or sharing smiles during instructional clinics. We’re not very far removed from that young age when we were seeking the very same inspiration that we’re now able to offer. It’s extremely rewarding to be able to teach or to put smiles on other peoples’ faces. We just hope it’s as rewarding for the kids as it is for us.”

OU’s 2007-08 and 2008-09 campaigns were particularly impresmpressive. The Sooners posted a 23-12 record in 2007-08 (a seven-win ven-win improvement over the previous year) and advanced to thee second round of the NCAA Tournament. They followed with a 30-6 -6 mark and the program’s first Elite Eight showing since 2003. The 30-win -win season was the sixth ever for the school. Capel’s squad, led by national player of the year Blake Griffin, bolted to a 25-1 start and reached the No. 2 spot in the national rankings — OU’s highest perch in 19 seasons. The Sooners’ on-court success has been buoyed by Capel’s ability to attract top talent. The energetic mentor with Tobacco Road lineage has signed four McDonald’s All-Americans in his four years. OU had signed five such players in its history prior to his arrival. Capel’s Oklahoma teams have produced in the classroom as well. His first three squads recorded an average Academic Progress Rate figure of 971, well above the 934 national three-year average for men’s basketball teams. In his first four years, 12 of his OU players have graduated. Capel’s on-court success at Oklahoma should come as no surprise, based on his performance at VCU, where he recorded a 79-41 (.658) overall record and a 50-22 (.694) mark in Colonial Athletic Association play. His Rams boasted a 47-11 overall home record for a staunch .811 winning percentage. In 2003-04, VCU’s CAA Tournament championship game victory over George Mason catapulted the Rams to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1996. VCU lost in the first round to Wake Forest, but not before putting a major scare into Chris Paul’s fourth-seeded Demon Deacons, 79-78. Capel’s 2004-05 squad, which finished 19-13, competed in the NIT, marking just the third time in VCU history that it made consecutive postseason appearances. The Rams won at least 18 games each of Capel’s four seasons at VCU with the 2003-04 squad registering a Capel-era-best 23-8 record. His first team finished 18-10 in 2002-03 as Capel tied a school record for wins by a first-year head coach. In 2005-06, VCU finished 19-10 overall and 11-7 in league play. Capel has served two coaching stints with USA Basketball, each one resulting in a gold medal. This past July, as head coach, he directed the USA to a 5-0 record in the FIBA America’s U18 Championship in San Antonio, Texas. After winning its first four games by an average margin of 50 points, Capel’s squad posted an 81-78 come-frombehind win over Brazil in the title game. In August 2005, Capel served as an assistant coach on the USA Men’s World University Games Team that finished 8-0 in Turkey. Villanova’s Jay Wright was the head coach. The squad featured, among others, Midwest City (Okla.) High School and Duke University standout Shelden Williams. Capel began his coaching career as an assistant at Old Dominion University in 2000 before moving to VCU as an assistant for the
54 OKLAHOMA MEN’S BASKETBALL | 2010-11
2001-02 season. In 2002, he became the youngest NCAA Division I head coach at age 27. A four-year starter for Hall-of-Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski at Duke from the 1993-94 through 1996-97 campaigns, Capel earned Atlantic Coast Conference honors each of his seasons in Durham. The guard, who wore No. 5, averaged 12.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.7 3-pointers during his career. He ranks 22nd in career scoring at Duke (1,601 points), 16th in minutes played (3,774), sixth in 3-pointers (220), seventh in 3-point attempts (553), seventh in 3-point field goal percentage (.398) and 11th in assists (433). Capel started 28 games as a freshman for a Duke squad that lost to Arkansas in the 1994 national championship game, 76-72. He led the Blue Devils in scoring as a junior (16.6 ppg) and helped Duke to a No. 8 final AP ranking as a senior. He averaged 26.5 points over Duke’s two NCAA Tournament games his final year, the same season he was named an Academic All-ACC selection. Responsible for one of the most memorable shots in college basketball history, Capel nailed a running, buzzer-beating 30-footer to force double-overtime against rival North Carolina in a 1995 home game. The contest ranked No. 1 on the list of 25 Greatest Moments in ESPN Basketball History and the play was nominated for an ESPY award. Following graduation in 1997, Capel played professionally for two years. He spent the 1997-98 season playing for the Continental Basketball Association’s Grand Rapids Hoops. In 1999-00, he played in France before returning to Grand Rapids. A standout prep performer, Capel was named the 1993 North Carolina High School Player of the Year after averaging 23.8 points, 5.1 rebounds and 7.7 assists for 31-1 state champion Fayetteville South View. He set school career records for points (2,066), rebounds (668) and assists (663). Capel boasts a strong basketball pedigree. His father, Jeff Capel Jr., was an eight-year Division I head coach at Old Dominion (seven years) and North Carolina A&T (one year), and currently serves as an assistant coach for the NBA’s Charlotte Bobcats franchise. Capel’s younger brother, Jason, was a four-year starter at North Carolina who averaged 12.1 points during the 1998-99 through 2001-02 seasons. Jason Capel helped the Tar Heels to the 2000 Final Four and is in his first year as head coach at Appalachian State. Capel, who graduated from Duke with a bachelor of arts degree in history, and his wife, Kanika, wed in 2003 and are the parents of daughters Cameron and Sydney.

JEFF CAPEL
THE WORD ON CAPEL “Jeff Capel is one of the best young coaches in the game. He is smart, tough-minded, hard-working, and he has a great understanding of the game. Jeff has grown up with basketball in his blood, and he has a maturity level way beyond his years. I have admired Jeff since I first met him as a player, and my admiration for him has grown far more as a coach and leader.” — Jay Bilas, ESPN Basketball Analyst “It’s hard to recall a coach who has made a greater impact on a program in a shorter period of time. Coach Capel has proven himself to be one of the best recruiters in the game, and he has shown an impressive ability to develop and coach his talent. He hasn’t just built this program for short-term success. He is laying the foundation for Oklahoma to be one of the truly premier programs in America for a long time.” — Seth Davis, CBS Analyst and Sports Illustrated Writer
“My relationship with Coach Capel is what attracted me to OU and that relationship remained strong during my two years there. In fact, our friendship has continued and I talk to him almost as much now as I did when I was there. He does a great job relating to his players. He takes the time to really get to know each of them and deals with everyone in a different manner. As far as basketball, he’s a student of the game and isn’t stuck in his own ways. He’s always learning new things and I think that’s one of the reasons he’s so effective.” — Blake Griffin, Former National Player of the Year and No. 1 Pick in the 2009 NBA Draft Pick “Jeff Capel’s success is no surprise. He is the total package as a college basketball coach. He’s an excellent teacher, coach and motivator. Most importantly, Jeff is an outstanding role model for young student-athletes.” — Fran Fraschilla, ESPN Basketball Analyst

DAVID L. BOREN UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT 17th Year at OU
D
avid L. Boren, who has served Oklahoma as governor and U.S. senator, became the thirteenth president of the University of Oklahoma in November 1994. He is the first person in state history to have served in all three positions. Boren is widely respected for his academic credentials, his longtime support of education, and for his distinguished political career as a reformer of the American political system. A graduate of Yale University in 1963, Boren majored in American history, graduated in the top one percent of his class and was elected Phi Beta Kappa. He was selected as a Rhodes Scholar and earned a master’s degree in politics, philosophy and economics from Oxford University, England, in 1965.
In 1968, he received a law degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Law, where he was on the Law Review, elected to the Order of the Coif, and won the Bledsoe Prize as the outstanding graduate by a vote of the faculty.
One of Boren’s most far-reaching projects in promoting quality education at all levels is the Oklahoma Foundation for Excellence, which he founded in 1985. The foundation recognizes outstanding public school students and teachers and helps establish private local foundations to help give academic endowment grants to local public schools. As a senator, he was the author of the National Security Education Act in 1992, which provides scholarships for study abroad and for learning additional languages, as well as legislation to restore the tax deductibility of gifts of appreciated property to universities in 1993. Boren, also a former state legislator, spent nearly three decades in elective politics before becoming the president of the University of Oklahoma. Boren was the youngest governor in the nation when he served from 1974 to 1978. Known as a reformer, Boren campaigned with a broom as his symbol. During his term, he instituted many progressive programs, including conflict-of-interest rules, campaign-financing disclosure, stronger open meeting laws for public bodies, more competitive bidding on state government contracts, and reform of the state’s prison system, including expanded education programs for first-time offenders and the largest expansion of the work-release program in state history.
Under Boren’s leadership, the University of Oklahoma has developed and emerged as a “pacesetter university in American public higher education,” with 20 major new programs initiated since his inauguration. They include establishment of the Joe C. and Carole Kerr McClendon Honors College, the Charles M. Russell Center for the Study of Art of the American West, a new expository writing program for freshmen modeled on the program at Harvard, an interdisciplinary religious studies program, the Artist-in-Residence Program, the International Programs Center, and the Faculty-in-Residence Program putting faculty family apartments in student residence halls. The Retired Professors Program has been started, bringing 50 retired full professors back to the University to teach freshmen. The number of new facilities started or completed on the campus during the Boren years has matched the explosion in new programs. Since 1994, almost $1.9 billion in construction projects have been completed or are under way on OU’s three campuses. Among the largest of the recent projects are the $67 million National Weather Center on OU’s Norman campus, the $90 million OU Cancer Institute on OU’s Health Sciences Center campus in Oklahoma City and the $35 million OU-Tulsa Schusterman Center Clinic. Presidential Travel Scholarships, students from 111 countries on campus, more reciprocal international exchange agreements than any other university and the new International Programs Center are all making OU more international. The new Honors College helps to assure that no students need to leave Oklahoma to find an educational experience to match their potential. In 1995, Boren launched the “Reach for Excellence” fundraising campaign with a five-year goal of $200 million, which was twice as large as any fundraising drive in Oklahoma history. The drive exceeded $500 million, raising OU into the top 15 public universities in the United States in private endowment per capita. Since 1994, endowed professorships have increased from 100 to 557 and the OU donor base has grown from 18,000 to more than 125,000 friends and alumni. Above all, the Boren years have been marked by an emphasis on putting students first. No university president in the country is more committed to students as his number one priority. He teaches a freshman-level course in political science each semester and is one of the few presidents of major universities to teach. Boren is married to Molly Shi Boren, a former judge and English teacher. Mrs. Boren is President Emeritus of the Oklahoma Arts Institute, which provides education programs in nine arts disciplines for high school students from across the state who are gifted in the arts. She has two degrees from the OU, a master’s degree in English and a Juris Doctorate from the OU College of Law. A native of Seminole, Boren has two children, Carrie Christine Boren, an Episcopal minister, and David Daniel Boren, a member of the United States Congress from Oklahoma. Devoting much of his life to public service, Boren drew from the example of his parents, the late Congressman Lyle H. Boren and Christine Boren.
During his time in the U.S. Senate from 1979 to 1994, Boren served on the Senate Finance and Agriculture Committees and was the longest-serving chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. From his days as a state legislator and governor of Oklahoma to Washington, Boren carried a commitment to reform, leading numerous efforts to make government work better for American citizens. As chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, he strengthened oversight of secret government programs and reformed the procedures for Presidential notice of such programs to Congress. For more than 10 years, he led the fight for congressional campaign finance reform and for legislation discouraging administration and congressional staff from cashing in on government experience and contacts by becoming lobbyists. In addition, he introduced legislation seeking to limit gifts and travel subsidies that government workers, including members of Congress, can receive from lobbyists. Boren also chaired the special 1992-93 Joint Committee on the Organization of Congress, which produced proposals to make Congress more efficient and responsive by streamlining congressional bureaucracy, reducing staff sizes and reforming procedures to end legislative gridlock. Boren left the U.S. Senate in 1994 with an approval rating of 9l percent after being reelected with 83 percent of the vote in 1990, the highest percentage in the nation in a U.S. Senate contest in that election year. Boren served from 1988 to 1997 as a member of the Yale University Board of Trustees. His

As Oklahoma’s governor from 1974 through 1978, Boren promoted key educational initiatives that have had an enduring impact on Oklahoma. Established during his tenure were the Oklahoma Arts Institute, the Scholar-Leadership Enrichment Program, and the Oklahoma Physicians Manpower Training Program, which provides scholarships for medical students and medical personnel who commit to practice in underserved rural areas. Also, the first state funding for Gifted and Talented classes was provided in 1976.
university experience also includes four years on the faculty of Oklahoma Baptist University, where he was chairman of the Department of Political Science and chairman of the Division of Social Sciences. In 1993, the American Association of University Professors presented Boren with the Henry Yost Award as Education Advocate of the Year.

JOE CASTIGLIONE VICE PRESIDENT FOR INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS PROGRAMS AND DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS
P
13th Year at OU
rinciple-Centered Leader …Visionary ... Passionate Advocate for Student-Athletes ... Establishes Standards of Excellence & Cultural Values ... Builder of Championship Programs. Excellence is a word that is often overused yet, when The University of Oklahoma is mentioned with the word excellence, the meaning comes through. From one of the best universities in the nation to a department of intercollegiate athletics that is second to none, excellence is the norm. As successful at the last 10 years have been, on campus and in competition, a new standard has been set and leading that effort is Joe Castiglione, the Sooner AD since 1998.
THE STAFF
Castiglione’s Sooner team has created a place where competitive dreams come true and academic goals are the expectations, not the exceptions. Through his leadership and the support of the University’s administration, there is a department-wide commitment, involving student-athletes, coaches and staff, to that standard. With the support of OU President David L. Boren and OU’s seven-member Board of Regents and Castiglione’s leadership, the OU athletics department represents a climate that creates lofty goals, high standards and a commitment to ethical behavior that is second to none. For Castiglione, though, it’s not just about the championships and trophies. The victories that he celebrates with his Sooners include graduation rates that continue to climb, recordsetting grade point averages and academic honors. The true measure of achievement for Castiglione and, by extension, the department’s coaches and staff, is measured in the success of the student-athletes in relation to the department’s mission statement “Inspiring champions today … Preparing leaders for tomorrow.”
In recognition of the performance of OU’s teams on the field and in the classroom, of the fiscal stability created during his tenure, the dramatic increases in donor giving, facility construction and renovations, and the cutting-edge programs that the department has begun during his tenure, Castiglione was named National Athletic Director of the Year in May 2009 by the Sports Business Journal. That award was one of several earned by Castiglione and the department. The 2007 PRISM Award winner, presented by the School of Sports Management at the University of Massachusetts, OU was just the second Division I winner and all of the programs recognized by the selection panel were started under Castiglione’s leadership with the full support of university administration. His peers have honored him for the department’s achievements as well. In October 2004, the Bobby Dodd Foundation named him Athletics Director of the Year. In 2003, he was inducted into the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators Hall of Fame. In June 2001, he received the General Robert R. Neyland Athletic Director Award for lifetime achievement from the All-American Football Foundation. The National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA) named him Central Region AD of the Year in 2000. The achievement that may bring him the most pride, though, came in May 2007 when he completed his master’s of education degree from OU. To understand the need for education and lifelong learning, OU’s student-athletes just have to look at their AD who started and completed his master’s degree while running the department and maintaining his priorities to his family. He quickly put his experience to use as an adjunct professor in the College of Education, teaching graduate classes in Marketing Development and Leadership in Higher Education. Castiglione was instrumental in the athletics department’s major campaign, Great Expectations: The Campaign For Sooner Sports. The campaign ended in November of 2003 with more than $125 million raised. The figure has grown to more than $220 million since then as funds continue to be raised for facility improvements and scholarship endowments. The largest fund-raising effort in OU athletics history includes projects that impact each of OU’s nearly 500 student-athletes and has become a national model for intercollegiate athletics. Hired on April 30, 1998, Castiglione joined the Sooner family after serving as athletics director at Missouri. In his 17-year career with the Tigers, Castiglione, who was named director of athletics at Missouri on Dec. 15, 1993, was credited with rebuilding sports pro-
Since arriving at OU in 1998 after an outstanding administrative career at Missouri, Castiglione has seen the Sooners finish in the top 30 of the Learfield Director’s Cup in 10 of the last 12 years. OU finished 12th after the 2009-10 academic year, a position that marked an all-time best performance in the annual ranking of programs that succeed across the board. Through his insistence that daily and long-term decisions be made in a financially responsible manner, the department has closed the books in the black in each of the last 12 years. His understanding of how the department fits into the University’s academic mission led to a decision in June 2009 to increase the direct support provided by the department on an annual basis to $4 million dollars. Through direct and indirect support, OU Athletics, under Castiglione’s leadership, provides more than $7 million annually to OU’s Academics Budget. The 11th director of athletics in University of Oklahoma history, Castiglione is quick to give full credit to the student-athletes and coaches, the staff, OU President David L. Boren, the OU Board of Regents, the donors and the fans for the success experienced during his tenure. It was that commitment to a team approach emphasis that was one of the many qualities that that the search committee recognized when they recommended Castiglione to university administration in 1998.

Third-team All-Big 12 performer Tommy Mason-Griffin had one of the most productive freshman seasons in school history, but it didn’t keep OU from a 13-18 overall record.
klahoma recorded a 13-18 season in 2009-10, its first losing record since the 1980-81 campaign. The Sooners finished 4-12 in the Big 12 Conference to tie for ninth place with Texas Tech and Iowa State, and were the No. 10 seed in the Phillips 66 Big 12 Championship (they lost in the first round to No. 7 seed Oklahoma State, 81-67). They did not qualify for postseason play. Following are more notes from the season:
O
Oklahoma used nine different starting lineups in its 16 conference games. OU’s .457 field goal percentage defense was its highest in 16 seasons. Its .389 3-point field goal percentage defense was its highest in 22 seasons and second highest ever. The Sooners were also outrebounded for just the second time in the last 16 years.
X Oklahoma started the year 13-9 before losing its final nine contests. It started Big 12 play with a 4-4 mark before losing its last eight league games. X Preseason first-team All-Big 12 pick Willie Warren played in just 21 of the team’s 31 games and in just half of its league outings primarily due to an ankle injury. OU’s leading scorer (16.3 ppg), he had surgery March 3 and missed the season’s final six contests. X Freshman Tommy Mason-Griffin was a third-team All-Big 12 selection after averaging 14.1 points, 2.9 rebounds and a team-high 5.0 assists. He ranked fourth in the Big 12 in assists, third in 3-point field goal percentage (.424) and sixth in 3-pointers per game (2.3). In conference play, he averaged team highs of 16.9 points, 4.6 assists and 2.9 treys while shooting a team-best .430 from long range. He led the Sooners in scoring 10 times over the last 14 games. X A member of the Big 12 All-Rookie Team, Mason-Griffin set OU freshman records for assists (154), assists per game (5.0), 3-point field goal percentage (.424) and minutes per game (35.7). His 38 points versus Iowa State on Jan. 27 were the most by a league player on the year and the most by a freshman guard in school history. X Warren earned honorable mention All-Big 12 acclaim after averaging 16.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.0 steal a game. X Senior guard Tony Crocker finished his career ranked fifth in games played (132), 15th in points (1,351), fourth in 3-point field goals (198) and tied for third in 3-point attempts (540). He and Ryan Minor are the only players in school history to amass at least 1,000 points, 500 rebounds and 150 3-pointers. On the season, Crocker led all Big 12 guards in both rebounding (6.2) and double-doubles (seven). X Four of OU’s top seven scorers were freshmen. The freshmen accounted for 47 percent percent of the team’s scoring on the year, the most of any Big 12 team (Texas and Nebraska ranked second at 39 percent). X The Sooners’ backcourt accounted for 74 percent of the team’s points. OU’s top three scorers and five of its top six were guards. X Oklahoma averaged 8.1 3-point field goals per game, the second highest figure in program history (the 1998-99 squad averaged 8.6). X The Sooners ranked second in the Big 12 with their .744 free throw percentage. The mark was the program’s best in eight years and the fifth best in school history.
With a solid senior season, guard Tony Crocker finished his OU career ranked fifth in games played (132), 15th in points (1,351), fourth in 3-point field goals (198) and tied for third in 3-point attempts (540). He and Ryan Minor (1993-96) are the only players in school history to amass at least 1,000 points, 500 rebounds and 150 3-pointers. The 6-6, 209-pounder from San Antonio, Texas, started 125 career games (five shy of the OU record), including his final 96.

CROCKER CONCLUDES OUTSTANDING CAREER
On the season, Crocker averaged career highs of 11.4 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.1 steals per contest. He led all Big 12 guards in both rebounding and double-doubles (seven). Crocker set a Big 12 record for points in a half when he netted 29 in the first 20 minutes against Centenary on Dec. 9. He hit seven 3-pointers in the opening period, tying a league record for treys in a half. He finished with a career-high 33 points and grabbed 13 rebounds in the 86-62 win.
MASON-GRIFFIN NAMED THIRD-TEAM ALL-BIG 12 Point guard Tommy Mason-Griffin earned third-team All-Big 12 honors and was named to the league’s all-rookie team. Despite the fact he was the only league freshman named to the first-, second- or third-team all-conference squads, he was not named Big 12 Freshman of the Year (that honor went to Colorado’s Alec Burks). In Big 12 play, the 5-11, 203-pounder from Houston, Texas, led all league newcomers in assists (4.6 apg), 3-point percentage (.430) and 3-pointers per game (2.9). He also ranked second among conference newcomers in scoring (16.9) and free throw percentage (.831). Here are more notes: X
On the year, Mason-Griffin averaged 14.1 points, 2.9 rebounds and 5.0 assists while shooting .424 from 3-point range and .813 from the free throw line. He ranked fourth in the Big 12 in assists, third in 3-point percentage and sixth in 3-pointers per game (2.3). X Mason-Griffin set OU freshman records for assists (154), 3-pointers (70), 3-point percentage and minutes per game (35.7). X Mason-Griffin made at least one trey in 29 of 31 games, at least two in 20 games, at least three in 11 outings and at least four seven times. X Mason-Griffin led OU in scoring in 10 of the last 14 games after not doing it in any of the season’s first 17 contests. Over those 14 outings, he averaged 18.9 points and 5.2 assists
SOONERS
2009-10 RECAP while shooting .424 from 3-point range (39 makes) and .871 from the free throw line (54 makes) in an average of 38.9 minutes. X In OU’s 16 league contests, Mason-Griffin shot .430 from 3-point range (46-for-107). The rest of the team shot .287 (73-for-254). X Mason-Griffin played at least 37 minutes in 15 of the last 16 games. He logged 40 or more minutes eight times in those 16 outings.
WARREN EARNS HONORABLE MENTION ALL-LEAGUE ACCLAIM Sophomore guard Willie Warren, who underwent season-ending arthroscopic surgery on his right ankle March 3, was one of nine players who picked up honorable mention All-Big 12 acclaim. Warren averaged a team-high 16.3 points per game on the year and added 3.3 rebounds and 4.1 assists an outing. The 6-4, 203-pounder from Fort Worth, Texas, who missed half of the conference season due to injury or illness, scored at least 20 points seven times in his 21 games on the year. The unanimous choice as 2008-09 Big 12 Freshman of the Year, Warren made 27 more free throws than the next closest teammate (despite missing nine total games).
DAVIS MAKES MOST OF INCREASED PLAYING TIME Over his freshman and sophomore seasons, guard Cade Davis averaged 4.2 points and 1.6 rebounds over 14.0 minutes per contest. Last season, Davis saw his minutes — and production — increase sharply. As a junior, Davis started OU’s final 27 games and averaged 31.8 minutes. His scoring and rebounding averages jumped to 9.9 and 3.9, respectively, and he led the Sooners and ranked ninth in the Big 12 with his 1.5 steals per contest. Davis canned 58 treys (one less than his first two seasons combined) and shot .347 from long range. In conference play, he averaged 11.5 points and 4.7 boards while shooting .361 from behind the arc (2.2 treys per game).
Five different Sooners each made at least 30 treys on the season. Texas, with four, was the only other Big 12 team with more than three players with at least 30 3-point makes each. Tommy Mason-Griffin led Oklahoma with 70 makes (2.3 per game) and was followed
GUARDS SHOULDER THE LOAD Five of OU’s top six scorers, including its top three, were guards. The Sooners’ backcourt accounted for 1,653 of the team’s 2,235 points, or 74 percent. Willie Warren led the guard charge by averaging 16.3 points per outing and was followed by Tommy Mason Griffin (14.1), Tony Crocker (11.4), Cade Davis (9.9) and Steven Pledger (6.2). All five of those players surpassed the 20-point mark at least twice on the year (Warren and Mason-Griffin did it seven times each, Crocker and Davis three times each and Pledger twice). MasonGriffin (three times), Crocker and Davis all scored at least 20 points in a half. By comparison, guards accounted for 52 percent of OU’s points in 2008-09.
YOUTH MOVEMENT The freshman foursome of Tommy Mason-Griffin (13.8 ppg), Tiny Gallon (10.6), Steven Pledger (5.7) and Andrew Fitzgerald (4.8) combined to score 1,060 of the team’s 2,235 points on the year, or 47 percent. The percentage of scoring output by OU’s freshmen was higher than that of any other Big 12 team. Freshmen accounted for 39 percent of Texas’ points, 39 percent of Nebraska’s, 27 percent of Colorado’s, 23 percent of Kansas’, 15 percent of Texas A&M’s, 13 percent of Kansas State’s, 13 percent of Oklahoma State’s, 11 percent of Missouri’s, nine percent of Baylor’s, five percent of Iowa State’s and two percent of Texas Tech’s. In addition to his scoring, Mason-Griffin ranked fourth in the Big 12 with his 5.0 assists per game and third with his .424 3-point field goal percentage. Gallon, who shot a team-high .547 from the field, ranked eighth in the Big 12 in rebounds per game (7.9) and sixth with seven double-doubles (he missed out on two others by one rebound each). Pledger knocked down 44 treys in 30 contests and had three games of at least 18 points. Fitzgerald made 11 starts and shot .511 from the field.
MASON-GRIFFIN’S STELLAR NIGHT On Jan. 27, freshman Tommy Mason-Griffin propelled the Sooners to an 89-84 home win over Iowa State. On a night in which OU played without starting guards Willie Warren and Tony Crocker due to ankle injuries (the pair entered the game averaging a combined 30 points), Mason-Griffin finished with 38 points and six assists while playing all 40 minutes (he battled leg cramps the final 3:45). The point guard was 13-for-21 from the field, 5-for-10 from 3-point range and 7-for-7 from the free throw line. Mason-Griffin’s 38 points against the Cyclones were: X X X X
Four more than any other Big 12 player scored on the year. The most scored by an OU freshman since Wayman Tisdale in 1982-83. The most scored by a freshman guard in school history. Tied for the most scored by a point guard in school history (Mookie Blaylock also scored 38 against Iowa State in 1988-89). X Tied for the fifth most by a freshman in Big 12 history (only Kansas State’s Michael Beasley scored more).
GERBER, WRIGHT EARN ACADEMIC ALL-BIG 12 ACCOLADES Seniors Beau Gerber and Ryan Wright were named to the Academic All-Big 12 squad, with Gerber earning first-team honors and Wright second-team accolades. It was the first academic all-league award for Gerber and the third for Wright (two at OU and one at UCLA). Gerber was a mechanical engineering major and an electrical engineering minor. Wright was pursuing a master’s degree in human relations.
TISDALE INDUCTED INTO COLLEGIATE HOOPS HALL
X Tony Crocker (above) and Ryan Minor are the only players in school history who have amassed at least 1,000 points, 500 rebounds and 150 3-pointers in a career.
Wayman Tisdale, OU’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder, was inducted into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame Nov. 22 in Kansas City, Mo. Tisdale starred at Oklahoma for three seasons in the mid-1980s and was named a first-team consensus All-American and Big Eight Conference Player of the Year each year. Tisdale, who was the leading rebounder on the 1984 U.S. Olympic gold medal team and was the No. 2 overall pick of the 1985 NBA Draft, passed away in May 2009 from cancer at the age of 44. His widow, Regina Tisdale, was on hand to accept the honor on Tisdale’s behalf. Among the others in the eight-person class were Larry Bird and Magic Johnson.

A “LEGEND”ARY CAREER
ob Barry announced in August that this will be his last season as the radio play-by-play voice of Oklahoma’s football and men’s basketball teams. The 79-year-old Barry, who has been the voice for both of Oklahoma’s major state universities, said he had targeted 2010 as the year he would wrap up his play-by-play duties. No announcer has called more Sooner games than Barry. “It’s time,” he said. “I had been thinking about it for a couple years and kind of pointing toward this year as my last. The time just felt right. I’ve been so fortunate and so lucky to have the job I’ve had. I tell young people all of the time that when you find the thing you love to do, then do it to the best of your ability, it’s really not work at all.” OU President David L. Boren recognized Barry’s skill and thanked him for his representation of the university. “No one represents the Sooner spirit better than Bob Barry,” Boren said. “He is one of the most talented broadcast journalists in the United States and has an unusual ability to transmit excitement and enthusiasm to his listeners. I am deeply grateful to Bob for his many years of service to the University and its supporters.” Athletics Director Joe Castiglione said it’s difficult to measure’s Barry’s impact. “Bob Barry is an Oklahoma treasure. Over this extraordinary era, millions of people have become familiar with our program and grown to love it more because of Bob’s work and his fan-friendly style of describing the action. “To me, he has always been the fan’s announcer. I’ve watched a lot of people approach Bob just to meet him or thank him, and have always been impressed that he is oblivious to his celebrity status. He is so humble because he
views himself as just another Oklahoman, another fan.” Barry’s interest in broadcasting resulted from a serious childhood accident. He fell from a second-story window at his home in Oklahoma City at the age of 7. Doctors ordered him to rest his head on a pillow for eight straight weeks. He spent those eight weeks listening to the radio and developed an appreciation for broadcasting. Soon he began pretending he was a radio play-by-play announcer as he played a baseball board game. Barry, known affectionately as “The Legend,” began his broadcast career at Norman’s KNOR radio in 1955 as a salesperson and host of “Uncle Bob’s Wake Up Jamboree.” He then began broadcasting Norman High School football and basketball games in 1956. In 1961, he won a tryout over 13 other broadcasters to become the play-by-play commentator for University of Oklahoma football and basketball, a position he held from 1961-72. His first OU game was the SSooners’ 1961 football opener at NNotre Dame. After the OU radio rights cchanged hands, Barry called Universsity of Tulsa basketball games during the 1973-74 season, and was Oklahoma State’s football and basketball announcer from 1973-90. He returned to the OU microphone in 1991 and has remained in that role since. The list of awards and honors won by Barry is impressive. He has been named Oklahoma Sportscaster of the Year 15 times and was inducted into the Journalism Hall of Fame in 1998 and the Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame and Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame in 1999. In 2008, he was recognized as a distinguished alumnus by OU’s Gaylord College of Journalism and received a similar honor from the OU Board of Regents in 2010. He received the Oklahoma Association of Broadcasters Pioneer Award in 1993.

BIG 12 CONFERENCE
T
he Big 12 Conference, despite being one of the youngest conferences in America, will continue its position as a national leader in athletics and academics as it embarks on its 15th season in 2010-11. Since it began play in 1996-97, the Conference can boast of 38 team crowns and 459 individual NCAA Championships. Big 12 squads continued to lead the nation in their respective sports as every single sport the Conference sponsors had at least one school ranked in the top six of the national rankings during the past campaign. In addition, nine different sports had the No. 1 team in the nation at some point during the 2009-10 season.
MEDIA INFORMATION
On top of three NCAA crowns, several schools made strong national showings. Five Big 12 volleyball teams competed in the regional semifinals of the NCAA Championship in 2010, the first time that has happened in conference history. The Big 12 also had a school play for the BCS National Championship (Texas) for the seventh season and placed two women’s basketball squads (Baylor, Oklahoma) in the Final Four in the same season for the first time. Oklahoma finished second nationally at the NCAA women’s gymnastics finals — an all-time high for the Big 12 — while Oklahoma State placed second at the men’s golf championship. Iowa State was third at the NCAA wrestling championships and the Big 12 also placed a team in the College World Series in both softball (Missouri) and baseball (Oklahoma). The individual honors also continued, as Jenny Barringer (Colorado) earned The Bowerman Award, presented for the first time to the most outstanding collegiate women’s track and field athlete. In fact, all three women’s finalists were from the Big 12. Caroline Hedwall (Oklahoma State) was named the recipient of the Honda Sports Award as the nation’s top female golfer after capturing the NCAA individual title. Lisa Koll (Iowa State) earned the Honda Award as the top collegiate female athlete in track & field, Connie Yori (Nebraska) was the consensus Division I women’s basketball coach of the year and K.J. Kindler (Oklahoma) earned national women’s gymnastics coaching accolades. The Big 12 has had four Heisman Trophy winners in its 14-year history. In 2008, the Big 12 established a high-water mark, as for the first time in the 74-year history of the Heisman four of the top five vote-getters hailed from the same conference, including award-winner Sam Bradford (Oklahoma). The league followed that recognition with two of the top five finalists in 2009. During the past six seasons a total of 16 NCAA trophies have been hoisted by Big 12 institutions, with at least one national crown won in all but one year for the Conference, including each of the past 13 seasons. The Big 12 leads all conferences with its seven appearances in BCS title games. Seven league squads have played for the football national championship in the last 10 years with berths in 17 BCS games overall, including two each in 2007 and 2008. In the past two seasons, the Big 12 has had 16 players earn consensus All-America accolades. In basketball, nine men’s and six women’s teams have advanced to their respective Final Fours in the past eight seasons as the Big 12 continues its place among the elite intercollegiate athletic conferences. On the men’s side six different teams have reached the regional finals in the past three seasons — the first time since 1985 that any conference can boast of six different teams doing so over a three-year period. The Big 12 has led the nation in women’s basketball attendance the past 11 seasons and surpassed its own NCAA record attendance mark in 2009-10. Numerous national honors have been won by basketball student-athletes during the league’s history, including Blake Griffin (Oklahoma) being named consensus national player of the year in 2009. The Big 12 and its member institutions are committed to a competitive environment where sportsmanship and fair play take center stage. Whether on the field, in the classroom, or within the community, the student-athletes, administrators, coaches and game officials of the Big 12 support the highest ideals in sportsmanship. Big 12 student-athletes have shown commitment to their studies by earning numerous academic recognitions. Cole Aldrich (Kansas) was the latest after being named Academic All-America of the Year honors in men’s basketball in 2009-10. It marked the seventh time in the past five years that a league athlete has garnered the top academic honor for their respective sport. The Big 12 had plenty of success overall in the classroom a year ago, as the Conference led the nation with 38 student-athletes earning ESPN The Magazine/ CoSIDA Academic All-America recognition.
