I’ll do a recap tomorrow. I’m whipped, it was a long day.
We got there early and sat on the second row behind OU’s bench. Porter was pretty wound up, so I passed on that conversation. I had my fake ESPN press pullover on and was going to tell him I was with Fran on the ESPN telecast. But I thought better of that and maybe I’ll try in Round 2 on Sunday night.
I did get to talk to EJ Harkless briefly. He was sitting behind the bench with his crutches. I told him how much I love the way he plays and ask him if he was definitely coming back next season.
He didn’t flinch or hesitate. He said he was absolutely coming back. I didn’t get a chance to speak with Moj who had another solid night with a twenty-eight-point performance.
I loved EJ from Day 1 when he came to OU to play for Lon Kruger.
Here’s EJ at the Big 12 pre-season Media Day.
