Oklahoma basketball: Buzz cut helps Brady Manek

Related Topics: Larry Bird

Brady Manek has scored 21, 22 and 18 points in three of OU’s last four games. In related news, Manek still loves his buzz cut.

Manek drew national attention early in the season, after he grew out his hair and was compared in looks and style of play to Larry Bird. But after OU’s loss to Baylor on January 28, Manek had his hair buzzed, and he’s quite happy with that decision.

“I really don't know what I was doing,” Manek said in Columbia, South Carolina, where on Sunday the Sooner basketball team plays Virginia in the NCAA Tournament’s South Regional quarterfinals.
