Ford has done an okay job, not spectacular, not terrible. He inherited some good players that were being coached by a drug addict and did about what you would have expected with them. His own recruiting has been somewhat weird in that he would intentionally over sign and has had a revolving door policy with rosters for the most part, but he seems to have put a cohesive team together for this season, so I'll be curious to see how they come together. Smart is definitely not Blake, I'm not sure that Smart is even the level of basketball player that Willie Warren was coming into OU.
