Boom!

TINY · 07-20-2023, 05:21 PM

Big time get! He will be top 100 soon.

MisterF · 07-20-2023, 05:50 PM

What grade is his brother? Is he D1 good?

He’ll be a soph. Still a tad early. So many upper class men ahead of him on dales squad.

I think he will be. We’ll see. Some think he will be better than Dayton.

Nice! Welcome Mr. Forsythe!

BCSooners · 07-20-2023, 06:04 PM

Good news! Kid can play

allday92 · 07-20-2023, 06:31 PM

Boom! Think he's going to be a great player for us!

Romulus · 07-20-2023, 07:02 PM

My favorite player in the state from this class, much much prefer him over TO Barrett

mict085 · 07-20-2023, 07:27 PM

Nice. Thankful for the good news.

Totally agree. I was never enamored with TO’s game.

This kid can fill it up!

Apparently Moser can recruit a little bit in-state. Nice addition.

AdaSooner · 07-21-2023, 09:18 AM

Great news to greet my arrival on the board this morning!

BOOMER SOONER!!!

I am very happy with this. It looks like the game comes so easy to him.

Soonerguy06 · 07-21-2023, 01:19 PM

I'm not trying to be pessimistic, but how does he compare to Cortes? 3 Star recruit seems like average, as far as DI college ball goes, so I'm curious to how he compares and if he will actually be productive, in the way we desperately need. Despite what some say about Moser, it does seem his Oklahoma high school recruiting is solid!

They aren’t very similar at all other than being from small school Oklahoma.

Cortes: Pure PG, flashy, phenomenal passer, good handles, decent speed/quickness.

Forsythe: combo guard, strong & tough, good shooter from 3 & mid, good defender, makes the right play.

I agree with BCSooners assessment.

Only thing I will add is I am confident Forsythe ends up a top 100 4*.

Cortes could shoot…he just didn’t. Forsyth is aggressive on both ends and can really defend.

I suspect you will see Cortes shoot a lot more this season. Apparently he still has some summer courses to take care of before he is eligible, though.

I'm not degrading Cortes but I would expect him to get more shots at WSU. He should get plenty more PT at WSU. I wish him luck.

Well their team is certainly no worse than we’ve been the past couple years. They arguably had more talent than we did but underachieved.

I guarantee you that when Cortes signed with OU, people were as pumped about him as they are now about Forsythe. I just hope for Forsythe’s sake, he gets more freedom to make mistakes than Cortes did.

I was jacked for cortes. Thought he was going to be legit. I think he still could have developed into a solid role player and maybe avg. Starter if he'd stayed
