Gallon Impressive

[Eielson]

Not really much said.

Just:

"The McDonald's All American practices began Sunday in the brand new University of Miami practice facility. Amongst all the talented prospects participating in the game, Oklahoma signee Keith Gallon was one of the most impressive."

and

"A trimmer Gallon impressed on Sunday."

It's just good to here since we are losing...Taylor. ;)

More good news. Mason-Griffin doing well, also.

"Once again Keith Gallon had a strong day. John Henson fared much better against him on Monday than he did Sunday, using his length and quick hands to counter Tiny's power. But when Renardo Sidney matched up on Gallon, the Oklahoma signee had a hey day scoring in transition as Sidney seemed content to stand on the offensive wing."

"Gallon isn't the only talented future Sooner in the McDonald's Game. Tommy Mason-Griffin had a stretch in practice when he was on fire, creating space off the dribble at will and draining jumpers. Making his scoring flurry even more impressive was that he was being guarded by arguably the best perimeter defender in the class Avery Bradley."

One more! :)


The Class of 2009 seems loaded with talent. Do you expect any of the McDonald's All Americans to move up in the next class ranking or will John Wall hold on to the top spot?

- Malcolm from Chicago

I don't see anyone taking over Wall's No. 1 spot, but Derrick Favors will move up at least one spot. Lance Stephenson might sneak up a few spots. Keith Gallon has looked like a five-star this season. And David Wear and Travis Wear might get a bump in the rankings.

Last one for the day-

I really hope TMG can do this next season, especially considering Bradley is going to Texass.

Holy Cow! he looks so much thinner than any other picture Ive seen of him! I kept seeing these pictures of a huge, fat guy rumbling around and getting 6 inch verticals, but he looks like he will be able to run the court now! Im super excited for him now!!! good to see he has put in alot of work to improve his game.
