Everyone remembers how good Oklahoma was when Blake Griffin was winning Player of the Year awards. No one remembers that Willie Warren, Tiny Gallon and Tommy Mason-Griffin torpedoed that program and sent them to three straight losing seasons when Griffin left.

Buddy Hield takes backseat as Oklahoma's supporting cast rises up
Despite being the team with the singular individual performer synonymous with college basketball this season, the Sooners truly put in a team effort to come away with the win to send the program to its first Elite Eight since Blake Griffin and Willie Warren wore the Crimson and Cream in Norman.
The World reports the appearance of the followings posts on a Twitter page attributed to Hausinger... From Jan. 15: "In Norman getting set to watch Willie Warren and Keith Gallon take on the MO tigers, Boomer Sooner." to resign from Merrill Lynch before taking a new job with Raymond James Financial Services in Tampa, contested his resignation. In a document on the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority website, he states: "The media reports indicated that I gave money to Willie Warren or Keith Gallon are false.
The first time I saw Walker play was in the 2008 McDonalds All-American game. At the time he was the fifth-ranked point guard in the country according to Rivals.com (behind Jrue Holiday, Brandon Jennings, Tyreke Evans and Willie Warren). He threw down one of the biggest dunks Ive ever seen by a point guard (over current Sixers PG Holiday) in that game.
Hornets coach Monty Williams had reminded his players they were unbeaten (15-0) when limiting opponents to 86 or fewer points and challenged them to hold the Clippers to that mark. They might have if not for Willie Warren's meaningless 3 with 5.6 seconds left.
