With the college basketball season just around the corner, the Oklahoma Sooners are urging fans to #TakeNotice. Apparently, coaches from across the conference are doing just that as the Preseason All-Big XII Team was released Thursday. Of the featured members, Oklahoma's own Buddy Hield sits on the list.

| Buddy Hield, Oklahoma | G |

Another Sooner, Ryan Spangler, earned an honorable mention. I believe it goes without saying at this point, but you have to be impressed with the progress Lon Kruger has made with this team in a short amount of time. Congrats Buddy!
