I caught up with Donovan down in Lawrence on Sunday. Sounds like he really likes Nebraska.

At one point I was focusing a lot of attention on Kate Upton but the feeling wasn't apparently mutual.

Williams said Teddy’s commitment “definitely, definitely, definitely played a part”. Which puts Hoiberg in a really tough spot, if Teddy makes the team better we gotta take him. Williams being committ

Saw one of the local Lincoln TV stations reached out to Williams after OSU got hammered by the NCAA yesterday.

 

He said they offered to let him out of his scholarship. I got the impression he planned to stick with OSU, but I don't believe he definitively said one way or the other. They don't report for workouts for another 3-5 weeks, so he has some time to look around. 

 

Just what his recruiting needs is another few crazy twists.

Okie lite clearly is not an elite program given the penalty they got.  The big boys would have gotten a stern talking to.

Give it time. I'm hearing from Lawrence that Self is almost finished with the first draft outlining how he'll penalize himself. The stickling point is whether he'll be able to coach while wearing his toupee.

Donovan just lighting it up at Okie light. O for the season. In limited minutes. His scholarship replacement here just hit two for four from downtown. You have no idea how satisfying it is for me to report this.

Norm "Schadenfreude" Peterson, am I right?

My son is watching espn gameday this morning and they had segment with Cowboy star freshman Cade Cunningham. So I thought I would check on DW's stats this year. He's only played 28 minutes this season including only 1 minute in the 2021 calendar year and has not scored a point as he is 0-8 from the field on the season. Wondering if he will be in transfer portal after the season? Don't believe NU will be his next stop but thinking he won't be in Stillwater next season.

I had the exact same thought last night while watching all the Nebraska kids playing in the SDSU/USD game.  I would almost expect to see DW transfer after this year and end up maybe in the Mo Valley or something.

I'm sure that the recruiting pitch to get him to Stillwater was honest, and that they told him " you're not going to play much, you probably won't be able to score against college defenses, and given your injury history it's likely you'll have season ending knee surgery half way through the season."

I've kept tabs on him throughout the year because I thought he would EVENTUALLY get a chance. It hasn't been good. 

He’s injured and out for the year

Oklahoma State freshman guard Donovan Williams will miss the remainder of the Cowboys' season because of a pending knee surgery. Williams was a highly touted four-star recruit for the Cowboys and has played in five games this season.

Donovan tore his ACL. It's not the same knee that he tore prior to his senior year

Apparently that was a misdiagnosis. Their doctors told him it's tendinitis and scar tissue (injury is in the same knee with the repaired ACL).

I'm not sure that's good news or bad news for him.  If he blew out the other knee, you know that's something that can be repaired and you can move on from.  If his problematic knee won't stop giving him problems, that could just limit him going forward.  It kind of reminds me of Tre Bryant and what he dealt with and what forced him to retire.  I have no idea if the fact patterns are even remotely close besides it just being a knee issue.  Hopefully this kid's knee can be cleaned up and he get back to playing normally again.
