Bennett Commits to OU!!!

[cvangild]

Hopefully we get Spangler too. Great weekend for Sooner fans!!

Where are you seeing this?

I'd love to be able to point and laugh at another Mike Anderson recruiting failure.

I hope that report is accurate. On video the kid looks like he could help us.

Hope it's true!

Did Hale even realize he was reporting on OU basketball?

Pretty excited about this if it turns out to be true.

We needed another big, and this guy seems like the best available that we had a shot at. I'm going to withhold judgement on his game until I see him in an OU uniform. But worst case, he is going to compete with Arent for 4th big man minutes.

Watch it, Hale criticism isn't allowed here

Are you considering M'Baye a big or not? I know OU fans tend to disagree on where he'll actually play.

I'd be very surprised if Bennett isn't significantly better than Arent.

Assuming Hale is right, looks like Bennett will not be taking his visit to Arkansas.

First Cousins, and now Bennet. Not a bad haul in the late signing period when there is usually not much talent left to draw from. Spangler is next. I'll be surprised if we make it through the weekend without hearing that he committed to be a Sooner.

I consider M'Baye a big. If things go as planned, I don't think you'll see him play the 3 spot much.

I agree, I think at times he will be a stretch 4 but he will be a post.

 

[TheGimper]

Just realized: At this point Bennett would be our starting center next season.

Seems about a CJ Washington replacement. Hopefully a little more but doesn't seem likely.

Does anyone know if this is legit? Anyone confirm OUI's report?

I seriously doubt they made it up. If OUI says he committed, I'm guessing he has.
