Anyone know if we have a practice Saturday, and if so, where and when? Thanks.
 
Anyone happen to know the telephone number of Ms. Forney at the men's basketball office. Thanks.
 
I'll chip a buck or two for gas money if someone will go and report back.

"Harmon has yet to make his college debut, but he’s not reserved in his expectations for a Harmon-Bieniemy backcourt.

“I think we’re the best duo in the country,” Harmon said. “It’s gonna be exciting". "

247 members should go check out Colin Kennedy's post about the practice. He was very positive and had some additional info to that found in the Oklahoman article.
 
To sum up what Collin Kennedy said in just a few words.... Manek has bulked up. Doo has slimmed down. Both look a lot better. Garang is a very good outside shooter. Jalen Hill is very good defensively. Harmon can do it all, but is very coachable... good listener. Williams is going to be a stud.... very athletic. Molanari brings a lot of positive coaching energy especially on the defensive end.

SoonerScoop had a lot of stuff, too, including video interviews and quotes. Harmon thinks he and Bienemy are the best PG duo around.... like playing together. I loved his quote on Alondes Williams:
“He’s super bouncy. That’s what I can say. He can jump out of the gym. He’s athletic. He’s gonna do most of the dirty work for us — rebound, hit open shots. He’s gonna score the ball. I’m excited about what he’s gonna bring to the table for us. I think he’s gonna be a great asset for us and I think opposing teams are gonna have to game plan for him. That’s the best part about it.”

This year is going to be fun.

Thanks for the summary! Having a lot of athleticism is going to be so nice, especially after last year. That was something we really lacked and it was why I knew we would likely have issues in conference play, even after the great nonconference results. If the D-1 newcomers can round into form and make major contributions this season, we really will have a great mix of skill and athletic ability on this roster.

Thanks, Usedtobe1!

Lots of good stuff here too from John Rhode, long time Oklahoman sports reporter.

This team is going to be deep, talented and athletic. I have said for sometime OU may be the surprise of the Big 12 this season. I’m even more convinced of that now.
 
LK is very happy with Harmon.
Williams has played very well the last couple of weeks. He is going to be a big factor for us.
Doo is making a bunch of shots in practice.
Kur is practicing well.
Ricky I has a knee issue but they think he will be a player.

AG will redshirt.
It will be interesting to see if Hill also becomes a candidate for redshirt. My guess is no but it is possible.

Yes I did but only for about 35 minutes. Nothing too different to my average fan type eyes than what I put on the practice report thread Thursday. It was mostly about new players, today I would add that Brady missed more than his share of open shots but practice misses usually don't concern me. Oh! and Trae was there and Renzi.

Good to see trae staying engaged with the program
 
I was there as well. Highlight of the day by far was Brady dunking on 7-1 Issanza. Very Impressive!

Is Manek noticeably bigger? A couple of the stories following the opening practice suggested as much.
