So Phipps?

I heard Thompson was the best player at the Peach Jam. We will ultimately have to beat out the big boys. I sure hope he wants to play close to home!

vbdad · 07-20-2019, 04:24 PM

Hefner is another guy we are recruiting hard.

Lot of moving parts here.

What am I missing? He's barely rated with 2 offers.

Kruger doesnt care what rivals says. Offers are there.

Shot 45% from 3.

Always find a spot for a shooter.

CoachTalk · 07-22-2019, 08:22 AM

I say this. OU has not offered either.

Well, he only has 2 offers. So in this case, a whole lot of D1 coaches disagree.
So tell me what me and all those coaches are missing.

He's a lot better than Hefner.

I would be disappointed if our coaches didn’t take a hard look at this kid. Don’t let his size and baby face fool you. He scored 42 points in leading Booker T. Washington to the Class 6A State Championship.

Watch the highlight video Seymore Cox posted. Trey Phipps can flat out score! Still not convinced, here’s another highlight video.

Players like Trey Phipps who can fill it up from deep usually end up at Okie State or Tulsa. Remember the two smallish white kids who shot the lights out at OSU? Phil Forte was one of them. Maybe it’s our turn. I like his connection to Bryce Thompson. Can you say package deal? It worked for Okie State when they got Forte and his high school teammate (can’t make myself say his name). Hi

OU may not offer in the end, but I honestly think we could do worse. Besides, isn’t Trey the son of OU alum Conley Phipps?

Yep, not only that but Conley Phipps is the head coach at BTW so he coaches both Trey and Bryce Thompson.

Trey and Bryce also play together on the same AAU team, a team coached by Rod Thompson.

I like where we’re going with the Phipps/Thompson connection. Sure would be nice if it continues at OU!

CMSOONER · 07-23-2019, 09:49 AM

I think most major programs will be turned off by Phipps being a 6'1" SG. From the eye test he appears to be more like 5'10". At 5'9" Keiton Page lit us up for years which is enough for me to warrant Phipps getting a long hard look.

CoachTalk · 07-23-2019, 11:04 AM

Ou offered today.

sdcloud9 · 07-23-2019, 11:18 AM

I know that Conley originally went to OU and then transferred to Northeastern. I wonder if there are any ill feelings.

You can never go wrong offering a pure shooter. Davidson was smarter than anyone else offering that one guy...having Rotnei Clarke with BG woulda been nice also.

Even more embarrassing for p5 coaches was letting Seth curry go to liberty out of HS. You think they would have learned their lesson with steph.

jaymOU · 07-23-2019, 02:25 PM

Unless things changed significantly this summer - the Clark / Forte / K Page comparisons are off to me. I saw Clark and Page both play in HS and have seen Phipps many times. Different level of competition, but Phipps is not the ball handler either of those players were and, IMO, would not be a point guard in college - unless things have changed. A 6-1 shooting guard is likely the concern. I think a comp for Phipps is Tim Heskett. So if you think Heskett helped OU, then I think you would like Phipps. He can shoot and knows the game very well.

Is this guy can shot 39.82% from three for his career on over 4 attempts per game, then yes he will help the team.

Tim Heskett is 5th all time in 3's made, 5th in attempts, and 7th in percentage at OU
