Oklahoma basketball: Hang on Sooner fans; a top recruiting class on the way

Wednesday was national signing day in college basketball for the 2019 recruiting class, and OU head coach Lon Kruger has brought in one of the country’s best. The sports news website 247Sports rates the Sooners as having the ninth best recruiting class nationally for the 2019-20 college basketball season. Rivals.com ranks OU’s 2019 recruits as the 11th best class.

Oklahoma went from the one of the country’s youngest teams a couple of years ago to the oldest in the Big 12 this season with eight seniors or graduate transfers and only one scholarship freshman. The average age of the Sooner roster this season is 21.
