Where's Pierre Jackson? I suppose you can only have 5 but the kid led the Big 12 in points and assists. S/O to Big Cobbins for being named to the Big 12 all defensive team. *Finger Shake*

It's truly been a special year for Smart and the good news is that it's not over. I've given Travis Ford a lot of hell but kudos to him and his staff for getting this kid to Stillwater. Keep em coming...
