OU basketball: Kristian Doolittle coming on strong for Sooners

NORMAN — The first time Oklahoma played TCU, Kristian Doolittle wasn't with his teammates.

Instead, he was back home in Edmond, watching on television as his teammates knocked off then-No. 10 TCU on Dec. 30 after suffering a concussion in practice the day before.

It was a disappointing time for Doolittle, who missed the season's first nine games due to an academic suspension from school.

But Saturday, in the second meeting between the programs, a 102-97 overtime win, Doolittle was right in the middle of things.

In the final 13:48 — including overtime — the sophomore from Edmond Memorial was off the floor for just 15 seconds.
