How many native Tulsans on our team?
Is it an insult? Maybe.
But, he will sell more papers in Owasso than TU basketball normally will.
If we don’t want these kind of insults then we have to build a recruiting wall around the metro so strong that our local studs stay home.
Top three in the sports dept. or the entire staff of the newspaper?That paper is dying. Emig is probably one of the top three writers they have. I’m ok with an article about Shake, but I wish they would show a comparable level of affection for the home town team every once in awhile. Instead we are eagerly awaiting Hines’ investigative journalism on how we have three players in the first year class with last names that begin with “J.”
Maybe he should have brought up Milton bad mouthing TU to balance out this supposed feel good story.
An article about someone like him plastered on the front page is likely to alienate the Tulsa fans who read the paper. Below it was the Henderson article. I thought the Henderson article was good.
When opposing players who are not liked come into the arena, TU fans should do some good-natured, loud heckling. I hope that happens tonight.

Enjoy sitting with Union and Owasso booster clubs.
I didn't like the focus on recruiting between OU and SMU (although I recall that was Milton's finalists), as if Milton was too good to be at SMU but should have gone to the MECCA of college basketball (which is an empty Lloyd Noble except for OSU and KU or when there is a surprise superstar frosh).
The article should have been about the game first, secondarily about Milton. I still want a USC chant when he is introduced.
Never understood grown ass men heckling college kids. Refs are certainly fair game though.

I've only got a few years on Milton. He'll live
Coaches, refs, and Shake.Never understood grown ass men heckling college kids. Refs are certainly fair game though.
Plus his shorts are too tight. He needs to be made aware of that.
I think those knuckleheads downtown pull stunts like this just to piss off our small fanbase. They're probably reading this thread and cackling like little school girls right now.
Ask him 'why'd your mommy die your tighty whiteys smmmu red.'And I'm fine with the maturity it conveys when we make him aware of that
Scoop Haisten cackles like Joan Rivers with a mouth full of Marlboros.
Do me a favor and just start chanting “Butter” for Chargois...as in Tub o Butter.Enjoy sitting with Union and Owasso booster clubs.
Haha I really hope Shake and Shags have a bad night because the friend I'm bringing will have fun jawing with them for sure
Scoop and the Beaumont Blowhard are plaiyin’ grabass in the newsroom right now!
You call that grab ass, but we call it Texas Hold Em . . . without the cards!!!
Let’s see if Emig has a big TU article tomorrow.
He certainly won't have another SHAKE IS A HERO MILTON article
And he didn't even play.Half page picture of “Former Owasso standout Shake Milton “ on front page.
