NORMAN — Bai Jobe darted around the basketball court at his home where his signing ceremony was set to take place.

He was at the free-throw line, he was at mid-court, then he was along the baseline.

The former basketball star wasn’t chasing a basketball or performing drills. No, the 6-foot-5, 215-pound Jobe was making an effort to individually greet everyone who’s helped him on his unprecedented journey to his signing day.

“The dream I’ve been dreaming all the time is coming true,” Jobe said.

His adopted parents and siblings, English tutor, football coach, trainer, teammates, and even his barber were in attendance.
