College Basketball 2011-12: Video Highlights of Six Super Sophs

College basketball gets ready to rock in less than two weeks!

No more offseason workouts and limited/supervised scrimmages...

We're talking full-time, full-tilt practices followed by the 2011-12 schedule of games.

Here's a lightning-fast look at six super sophs who will shape the upcoming season.

Click on their names to see some of their sick freshman highlights.

Jared Sullinger: Ohio State

Jared Sullinger had a fantastic freshman year at Ohio State (34-3, 16-2 Big Ten).

He was selected as the Big Ten Freshman of the Year, the Big Ten Tournament MVP and the 2011 Wayman Tisdale national Freshman of the Year.

Sullinger, a classic, back-to-the-basket post, averaged 17.2 points and 10.1 rebounds per game.

Though he would have been a top-three pick in the  2011 NBA Draft, Sullinger returned to Columbus to "learn the 4 position."

Perry Jones: Baylor

With Perry Jones foregoing the NBA Draft and returning to Waco, Baylor (18-13, 7-9 Big 12) could be a top-10 team in 2011-12. 

As a freshman, the 6'11" forward averaged 13.9 points, 7.2 rebounds last season and made 55 percent of his shots.

Jones earned freshman All-American honors from both CollegeInsider.com and the United States Basketball Writers Association (USBWA).

With the return of Perry Jones, Quincy Acy, Anthony Jones and A.J. Walton and the addition of the class of 2011 recruits, Baylor will be a legitimate front-runner in the Big 12.

Terrence Jones: Kentucky

Kentucky's Terrence Jones will again be one of the best collegiate power forwards.

The Wildcats' 6'8" forward from Portland, Ore., averaged 17.1 points, 9.2 rebounds and 1.9 blocks in the regular season.

He led the SEC in double-doubles (11) and rebounding and ranked sixth in scoring and blocked shots.

Jones was selected as the 2011 SEC Freshman of the Year.

He will be a featured player in what could could be one of the most dynamic frontcourts (along with the Class of 2011's No. 1 power forward, Anthony Davis, and No. 1 small forward, Michael Gilchrist) in the nation.

Jeremy Lamb: UConn

While Jeremy Lamb had a great freshman season (11.1 ppg, 4.5 rpg), he elevated his game when it counted most: in the Big East Tournament and the NCAA Tournament.

Lamb averaged 16.2 points and 4.8 rebounds while shooting 58 percent from the field in the NCAA Tournament.

Alongside Kemba Walker, Lamb helped UConn win its third NCAA title.

He—along with Alex Oriakhi, Shabazz Napier, Roscoe Smith and one of the best recruiting classes in the country—will be a big reason that the Huskies have a genuine shot at repeating this season.

Ray McCallum: Detroit

One of the best PGs in the nation chose to not go to a "power conference" program out of high school but stay home and play for his dad. 

Detroit's Ray McCallum is ready to have a breakout second season for the Titans.

McCallum (13.5 ppg, 4.7 rpg, 4.9 apg) will lead a long and athletic team that returns a balanced lineup that had five players that averaged double figures a year ago.

McCallum, the 2011 Horizon League Newcomer of the Year, played on Team USA at this past summer's World University Games in China.

Harrison Barnes: North Carolina

There was a lot of pressure on Harrison Barnes to perform at an incredibly high level last year for UNC head coach Roy Williams.

Barnes was the No. 1 rated player in ESPN's 2010 Top 100. He was also selected as an AP Preseason All-American, the first freshman to make the list since voting began before the 1986-87 season.

After a moderately slow start, the Tar Heels' 6'8" small forward came on strong, averaging 15.7 ppg and 5.8 rpg.

Barnes was selected as the 2011 ACC Rookie of the Year.

His surprising return to Chapel Hill, along with seniors John Henson and Tyler Zeller, gives UNC the most frightening frontcourt in the country.

If three lottery picks weren't enough, North Carolina (29-8, 14-2 ACC) reeled in James McAdoo (one of the best power forwards in the Class of 2011) and P.J. Hairston (one of the best shooters among incoming freshmen).
