Another great article by Justin Hite.! He has done a really good job of featuring the new crop of players who are sure to play a major role at OU next season.

One thing I didn't know about James is that he may be capable of playing the point. I hope he's good enough to get a shot at backing up Jordan next season, so Cousins can return to the two full time where he is at his best.

It also alluded to how badly he was hurt, and all the work he has put into his rehab. He broke it coming down with a rebound without any contact….. similar to the gruesome injury Kevin Ware of Louisville got a few years ago in the NCAA tournament. A normal break heals in 6-8 weeks but it took 7 months for him to even get cleared. It's going to take some time for him to regain his quickness and stamina, so we need to adjust our expectations for his 1st year.

Sounds like a perfect spot for a redshirt if Buddy comes back.
