Newcomers dont take long to impact college basketball -- not in this world of one-and-dones and transfers. Over the next two weeks, we will look at the top five newcomers in each of the 10 biggest conferences. First up is the SEC.Many pointed to the new wave of coaches added to the SEC in recent years as an indication that the leagues postseason recession would finally be over. A better barometer is how those coaches are starting to get the players who can upgrade the conference.Just to be clear, Kentucky is exempt from the conversation. The Wildcats havent had a problem restocking their talent from year to year. But now the rest of the league is beginning to prove it can keep up. Its not a typo if you see Mississippi States recruiting class lounging among the nations elite programs.Heres a look at five newcomers who will surely have the SECs attention next season.Bam Adebayo, Kentucky Wildcats The Wildcats frontcourt was, in a word, unreliable last season. Although Skal Labissiere possessed a gifted offensive skill set, he didnt respond well to the physicality needed on the blocks. Marcus Lee made his presence known defensively but was absent on offense. That allowed opponents to outperform the Wildcats in the frontcourt in a way that hadnt really been done under Calipari.Those times appear to be over. Adebayo, a 6-foot-9 power forward, has the potential to bring strong post play back to UK. He doesnt mind the physical play inside. He rebounds well, and the description thrown around a lot by those who have watched him play most is high motor.The Wildcats will need all of Adebayos energy, especially with Labissiere (NBA) and Lee (transfer) no longer on the roster. Adebayo will likely start immediately and be the teams No. 1 option in the post.Mustapha Heron, Auburn Tigers Auburn has not made the NCAA tournament since 2003, which is currently the longest absence among SEC teams. Auburn coach Bruce Pearl will continue to hear about it until the Tigers receive a bid or he is no longer employed at the school. Landing Heron is a big step toward ending the drought.Heron should be a perfect fit with the hectic style of play Pearl favors. Hes athletic and loves to attack the rim, and he has deep range on his jumper. Heron will get plenty of shots to help erase the 18.4 PPG scoring void left by Kareem Canty.Pearl has called Heron a program changer, and he has already reshaped the future without having played a game. The 6-foot-4 shooting guard was ranked No. 25 by RecruitingNation, which made him the highest-ranked recruit Pearl has signed. There always has to be a first before others begin to follow, and it appears others have already started following Herons lead. Pearl is off to a quick start in the class of 2017, including landing a commitment from Austin Wiley, a 6-foot-9 center from Birmingham, Alabama, who is ranked No. 19.Mario Kegler, Mississippi State Bulldogs Like Heron for Auburn, Keglers impact at Mississippi State expands beyond playing. Kegler marked the second class in a row that coach Ben Howland convinced the states best recruit to come home. Kegler, a native of Jackson, chose the Bulldogs despite offers from schools in every geographic direction after he played for prep power Oak Hill Academy in Virginia.Howland has compared Keglers skill set to another versatile small forward with big expectations whom he signed while at UCLA: Shabazz Muhammad. Kegler wasnt quite the coup that Howland pulled off by signing Malik Newman, who was the No. 10 player in 2015. But Keglers No. 47 ranking makes him the highest among a seven-man class ranked fourth nationally by RecruitingNation.Kegler wont get a chance to reunite with his former high school teammate from Jacksons Callaway High School after Newman transferred to Kansas. But the 6-foot-8 Kegler will get a chance to help immediately. The Bulldogs will be one of the youngest teams in the league and nation, with 11 freshmen and sophomores on the roster.DeAaron Fox, Kentucky Wildcats Even though he was only 5-foot-9, Tyler Ulis left a big hole at point guard in the Wildcats lineup. He was one of the most steady floor leaders in the country last season, and he presented a strong case that he was the best pure point guard Calipari has had at UK.The 6-foot-3 Fox is a different type of point. Hell bring size back to the position, but can he bring the stability that Ulis provided? That could be the difference between UK being simply a good team and UK being a special one capable of another Final Four run.Fox has the kind of speed with the ball that has drawn comparisons to John Wall, but Wall didnt have the athleticism that Fox possesses to finish on fast breaks. Fox will need to avoid the trap of playing at only one speed. If he can learn that nuance, the Cats have enough talent around him to shine.Braxton Key, Alabama Crimson Tide Avery Johnson initially made a recruiting splash by securing a commitment from Terrance Ferguson, the No. 11 player in the class of 2016. Fergusons decision to play professionally in Australia makes Key the highest-ranked recruit in Johnsons second season at the helm.Key was ranked No. 33 in the class and should help the Crimson Tide fill a serious need. The Tide had a rebounding problem last season. They were especially porous in preventing offensive rebounds, as their percentage ranked 322nd nationally, according to Ken Pomeroy.Johnson just got his major key to correct that. At 6-foot-8, 240-pounds, Key already has a physical presence that Bama sometimes lacked last season. He wont just be asked to rebound, though. Key is skilled around the basket and has some range and touch to step outside the paint and score.Key might not crack the starting lineup immediately, as Alabamas most experienced position is forward. But he should be a difference-maker, especially where the Tide need one most: on the boards. Milwaukee Bucks Jerseys . -- Hunter Smith scored the winner with just 12 seconds remaining in the third period as the Oshawa Generals edged the host Sarnia Sting 5-4 on Friday in Ontario Hockey League action. Brook Lopez Bucks Jersey . Thousands of Southern California fans enveloped the Trojans to celebrate an improbable win secured by an interim coach, an inconsistent kicker and a thin defence that wouldnt break. http://www.nbabucksproshop.com/Customized/ .C. -- After a listless first half, the Washington Wizards used a big third quarter run to beat the Charlotte Bobcats Bradley Beal scored 21 points and the Wizards used a 17-0 run in the third quarter to take control of what had been a close game and beat the Bobcats 97-83 on Tuesday night. Vin Baker Jersey . Pettersen, winner of last years Evian Championships, had nine birdies and three bogeys, holding off a series of challengers led by Marion Ricordeau of France. The second-ranked Norwegian made her season debut after missing the LPGA Tours opening event last month in the Bahamas because of a shoulder injury. Eric Bledsoe Jersey . Miikka Kiprusoff had just announced his retirement after a decade-long run in Calgary and it would be up to Berra and Ramo to fill the void. TORONTO -- Ryan Hunter-Reays last race was just five days ago, but its already a distant memory for the veteran IndyCar driver.Hunter-Reay finished last at last weekends Iowa Corn 300, completing just 105 of 300 laps due to engine issues.Ive almost burned that one out of my memory, he said Thursday.The 35-year-old will aim to get back on course in Toronto this Sunday when he races at a track thats been kind to him in the past. Hunter-Reay led for 36 laps and won here in 2012.Its great to be back in Toronto, Hunter-Reay said. This place has some great memories here and it was a big part of our championship run in 2012.Hunter-Reay finished fourth at Road America on June 26, and was in the top 10 for both races in Detroit. But even with six top-10 finishes overall, he is still looking for a win and is 13th in the standings.Theres no other racing series like this in the world and thats what I like about it is every week -- you need to change and adapt and be ready to really think outside the box on how you set the car up, how you need to be as a driver and hhow you need to approach the race weekend making changes each week, Hunter-Reay said.dddddddddddd Its a true challenge.Hunter-Reay has looked good on street tracks this season. Aside from his success in Detroit, he started off the IndyCar schedule with a third-place finish in St. Petersburg.The 2012 series champion then went on a bit of a rough stretch, including a 24th place finish at the Indianapolis 500, a race which he won in 2014.Hunter-Reay said track positioning will be very important this weekend.Its such a small window here to get it right, because of the bumps, to get those shock settings and spring setting and the damper settings just right, youre talking three-, four-tenths of a second here, Hunter-Reay said. If youre out of that window, youre basically, relatively speaking in IndyCar terms, out to lunch. You have to be right there within a tenth or two of a second to be fighting for that pole position on Saturday. ' ' '
