I know a few folks/player at OU and the excitement in the program is really high. These freshmen are working out like Sr's. These upper classmen are doing great things to put the program back where it needs to be.

All the talk about Abath is real. there are folks in the program that feel that he is (possibly) a one and done at OU, I know people will laugh and say he needs to do it on the court and all that jazz, but he is and will be our best player.

I do it myself, but folks forget about Bennett and what he will bring to the table defensively. He is still raw on offense, but he will be a big off the bench that will come in and get after it.

Im not saying win the Big 12 good, but I feel that we will be a lot better than most think!

The buzz I'm hearing from those close to the program is very noticeable.

Bennett is a big key IMO. The fact that Anderson fought hard to get the kid to Arkansas hopefully means he can defend and rebound.

I'm getting very excited to see what this group can do under Kruger.
 
As somebody who has no inside knowledge on this team, I really appreciate the info. I am excited too. I just wish the season started sooner.
 
Bennett appears to be taller than his listed 6' 8". He also has long arms and an athletic body that makes one think he could be a force if his skill set matches the way he looks. Hopefully, he will at least block and change a few shots inside, something we have not seen much of the past three seasons.

I'm all in on M'Baye. Too many people who have seen him play say he's the real deal. I believe them. I have a feeling the biggest surprise on this team will come from our three freshmen guards. They are all known to have a few things in common, namely playing with a lot of passion, a will to win and their defense.

I really like the make up of this team!
 
The only thing I'm not sure about is the guards. We are gonna be one of the best teams in the country at 3-5.
 
I guess 3-4 would be the better discription. But then again college b-ball has few centers

This is the most talented team OU has had in recent years. We'll see what that adds up to in the win columns, but I think it'll be a nice number.
