Very sweet indeed! Looks like a solid player.

Any specific questions you guys want me to ask Omar?

1. What role did they tell you you would be playing next season?
2. Were there any former players they pointed to show you how we would use you?
3. What goals/expectations do you have for yourself going into next season?

Now we have a SF prospect for 1-2 years, I am definitely excited about next season now.
The way Miller has used our 6'6-6'8 SFs has always been beneficial for us to maximize our potential on both ends of the floor.
Using them like a Swiss army knife to fill multiple voids on both offense and defense has always been nice.

Welcome to the family that is Arizona Omar!
We are all happy you chose Arizona and hope you achieve greatness here.

After watching all of the highlights to be found, I'm going to throw out the Solomon Hill comparison. I'm sure he and Akot will have some great battles and it will be interesting to see how they play together!! He seems to be a humble and intelligent dude!! The optimism is building back up!! Bear Down Omar!!!
