Regardless. It’s asinine at this point to act like staying in Lloyd noble is even a viable solution unless you just want to completely give up on basketball for the next 20-30 years.
It took 30 years for OU to recognize Billy with a banner. No court naming.Hollis still doesn't have his jersey in the rafters. Either does Buddy.No statues of Wayman, Blake, or Buddy. Have you seen the great display cases?
I submit that OU/Joe C could give a rats azz about hoops. Until OU actually carez to support and back the program it will die no matter where they play. Field a top 20 team for a few years before talk of rewarding the program with a new facility.

It is the height of arrogance for the City of Norman to bail out the state. The State of Oklahoma has the responsibility to secure the funding, not Norman.
The state still has not provided any of the Covid relief funds provided by the Feds. The state needs to fund their own infrastructure.
The state has money for tax cuts. Fund OU properly.
