Barnett speaks about the Big XII Championship
filed in Pre-game on Dec.04, 2002
Barnett held a press conference to discuss the upcoming game (highlights here). He is not optimistic about either Brown or Purify playing.
“I don’t feel great about him (Brown) playing this week. I don’t feel great about Bobby playing either. That means we have to play outstanding in other aspects of our game.”
I hope it’s not as dire as it sounds. I think we’re going to need Brown to beat OU.
Looks like it is as dire as it sounds : ESPN.com. Hopefully we will see the Marcus Houston we saw in the first three games of his freshman year.

Shawn Watson seemed to make it sound as though he thought Brown was looking good for the game when Watson was on AM 950 The Fan yesterday, but that was the only time I heard anything optimistic about Brown playing. It sounds like Purify is definitely out with the high ankle sprain. That gives Marcus Houston the chance to start. Marcus, this is your chance to shine. North and South Buddy. North and South.
