OU Head Coach Sunny Golloway

G Sunny Golloway was named the new head baseball coach at the University of Oklahoma on July 15, 2005. After successful stints on the Sooner staff as N

I an assistant and interim head coach, and a strong eight-year run as the head coach at Oral Roberts, Golloway’s appointment was announced by OU Athletics

H Director Joe Castiglione. C “Sunny proved himself as a head coach at Oral Roberts and on an interim basis here at Oklahoma,” Castiglione said. “I am conﬁ dent that he will do so A

C COACHING STAFF can look to his leadership and aspire for the absolute pinnacle of college baseball. “His passion for this program is obvious and his enthusiasm never falters. I know that we have a coach who is devoted to the University of Oklahoma and one that is completely committed to the long-term success of the program. “Sunny has the full support of our university administration. We are dedicated to working with him and his staff in providing the resources they need to compete at the highest level.” Golloway characterized his new position as exciting and humbling. “My family and I are extremely excited about this opportunity to coach at the University of Oklahoma,” he said. “I am humbled to be included among the outstanding fraternity of coaches at OU. It is the very best group in the country. “We look forward to directing this program toward championships year in and year out, and that will be the primary focus. I think about that a lot. But honestly, the fi rst thing that came to mind when this job was offered to me was how excited I was to be able to coach these young men again at OU. I feel very close to them. We look forward to continuing in 2006 the late-season run we put together in 2005.” Last season, Golloway was elevated from associate head coach to interim head coach on May 1, when Larry Cochell resigned. Golloway rallied the program to a 12-6 mark down the stretch and led the Sooners to a berth in the NCAA Tournament. Including eight seasons (1996-2003) as the head coach at Oral Roberts and the record as OU’s interim coach, Golloway is 347-162 (.681). That percentage ranks No. 11 nationally among active head coaches with a minimum of fi ve years of experience.

He ended the 2004 season as the only Sooner named to the Oklahoma City NCAA Regional All-Tournament Team after hitting .500 over the three games. Earlier in the year, he reached base safely in 38 straight games and established a career-best hitting streak of eight games. McGuire was a two-time all-conference selection at Grayson County Junior College, under current OU assistant coach Tim Tadlock, prior to arriving in Norman. He batted better than .350 both seasons and accumulated 25 home runs and 116 RBI in two years. A native of Sherman, Texas, McGuire also excelled off the fi eld at OU where he was twice named to the Sooner Scholar and Big 12 Conference Commissioner’s Honor Roll list. He graduated from Oklahoma in spring 2005 with a bachelor’s degree in human relations and currently resides in Norman.

2005 SUMMARY W

E During an up and down year, the University of Oklahoma baseball team put together a successful run at the end of the season and was rewarded with its second I

V consecutive NCAA regional appearance, a fi rst since the 1997-98 seasons. OU fi nished the season with a 35-26 overall record and a 14-13 mark in conference play. E OU began the 2005 season after being picked to fi nish seventh in the Big 12 by the league’s coaches. The Sooners started off the year with back-to-back losses R to Gonzaga and Arizona State but rebounded by rattling off eight consecutive victories, a season high. N By the time Big 12 play opened at the end of March, OU was 13-8 in non-conference play. Texas A&M was the fi rst league opponent for the Sooners and OU O

S made quick work of the then-No. 14 Aggies, winning the ﬁ nal two games of the series after dropping a disappointing series opener, 7-5, in 10 innings.

A But the team would struggle after the Big 12 opener, going 5-10 over the next 15 conference games. OU won a series at home against Kansas but suffered E

S defeats to Baylor (1-2), Texas (0-3), Missouri (1-2) and Nebraska (1-2). After the Nebraska series concluded on April 30, OU found itself without longtime coach Larry Cochell, who stepped down with 12 games remaining in the regular 5

0 season and associate head coach Sunny Golloway was named the interim head coach.

After a respect- able showing, which included wins over Southern Miss and Maine, the postseason run ended with a 20-5 loss to No. 9 Mississippi in an elimination game of the 2005 Oxford Regional Championships. OU landed three members on the All-Regional Team, Chuckie Caufi eld, Ryan Rohlinger and Kody Kaiser, who combined to hit six of the team’s eight home runs (a regional best among the four participating schools). It marked the most any Sooner team had placed on an all-regional squad since the 1995 team, which had fi ve members.

2005 MLB DRAFT Four Sooners from the 2005 team and four 2006 signees were drafted in the 2005 MLB Amateur Draft held on June 7 and 8. During day one, Garrett Patterson was picked in the seventh round, at No. 229, to join the New York Yankees’ organization. Junior Daniel McCutchen followed in the 12th round, 380th overall, after being picked up by the St. Louis Cardinals. On day two, McCutchen was joined by teammate Ryan Rohlinger, who was drafted by the St. Louis Cardinals. The Sooners’ third baseman was selected 650th overall by the Cardinals in the 21st round. Junior right-handed pitched Tyler Gooch was also selected on the ﬁ nal day, at No. 1491 (50th round) by the Philadelphia Phillies. In addition, four signees, who are part of the Sooners’ 2006 class which was ranked in the nation’s top 10 by Baseball America, were also drafted. Louis Ott (13th round by Detroit), Sean Shoﬁ tt (15th round by Toronto) and David Hernandez (16th round by Baltimore) were taken on day one while Omar Aguilar (30th round by Milwaukee) was drafted on the second day.

KAISER TABBED FRESHMAN ALL-AMERICAN Freshman Kody Kaiser earned OU’s fi rst All-America award since 2002, after being named a second team Freshman All-American by Baseball America, a well- known publication dedicated to the sport. In 2005, Kaiser (.305, 10 HR, 34 RBI) was one of the Sooners’ most consistent hitters and the only member of the team to start all 61 games. The Edmond, Okla., product failed to collect a hit in just 15 of those games and was the team’s leader in total bases (133) and stolen bases (13). The right fi elder fi nished second on the team in home runs (10), doubles (15) and hits (78). The last time a Sooner was named a freshman All-American was in 2002. That year, Matt Bose and David Purcey both collected Freshman All-America honors (First Team - Collegiate Baseball). Kaiser is just the fi fth Sooner to be named a Freshman All-American at OU.

OKLAHOMA REMEMBERS GAUTT Prentice Gautt ushered in a new era for Oklahoma football when he landed a spot on the 1956 team. Former Sooner head coach Bud Wilkin- son was pressured against giving Gautt a scholarship. A group of black doctors and pharmacists gave money for Gautt to attend the school. Within a year, Gautt was given a scholarship and the donated amounts were given to another black student.

Gautt, considered Oklahoma’s best player in 1958, was a two-time All- Big Eight player and 1959 Orange Bowl MVP. During his senior year, Gautt was named to the academic All-America team and eventually earned master’s and doctorate degrees in psychology.

The academic center for student-athletes at the University of Oklahoma was named in Gautt’s honor in 1999. A special assistant to the commissioner of the Big 12 Conference, Gautt passed away on March 17, 2005.

“His personal example of quiet courage, grace under pressure, and dedication to the university helped open the doors of opportunity for countless numbers of African-Americans and minority student-athletes who have followed him into collegiate athletics,’’ said University of Okla- homa president David Boren.
