1. This is a Final Four-impact get
I’m not saying Oklahoma will repeat what it did with Buddy Hield (who was a four-star recruit) and make a Final Four. But landing such a good point guard could be the building block that gets OU to the NCAA Tournament next season, then perhaps makes the Sooners a threat to play in the Final Four come 2019, 2020 and/or 2021. Young is very talented, but I could see him being anything from a two- to four-year player in college. This commitment could have a snowball effect on other four- or five-star players picking Oklahoma the next two years.

Yes, he wasn't terribly highly regarded coming out of HS. I think he was top 100 in Rivals. He didn't have an offer from Kansas despite playing his HS ball in Wichita.

I love that he was right in Billy's backyard - last years game @ Phog was one of the best games by a Sooner player that I've seen.
