Thank you for a well written informative response. Time will tell what happens. However where he lands will give insight as to what he is looking for in his last year of college ball.
Key Lawrence also entered the portal today. That makes 7 or 8 OU players that went into the portal.

OU is up to 9 players in the portal and OU NEEDS 3 more to either portal or turn pro just to get back to 85 scholarships ... (really OU wants 8-10 more guys to leave to be able to bring in players from the portal that they want/need)

I think they are really close if they keep winning they just haven't been around as long as teams like Michigan. They are one of the top 20 if not top 15 programs in the country.

There are definitely not 15 program in cfb that are considered to be blue bloods. I'd say 5-6, maybe.

11 now in portal with Marcus Major and Key Lawrence.

Key Lawrence surprises me a lot more than Major or Gabriel.

he became 3rd string with about 3 games left and didn't play much toward the end of the year RSJ was the starter and he is back

I don’t have Carson’s hat to see who you referenced in your 9 since you don’t list them.
Lawrence and Major were the 2 that pushed to 11.
1. Marcus Hicks, 2. Dj Graham, 3. Jason Llewellyn, 4. Tawee Walker, 5. Dillon Gabriel, 6. Nate Anderson, 7. Reggie Grimes, 8. Savion Byrd, 9. Dayton Smothers, 10. Key Lawrence, 11. Marcus Major.

Hicks was not on the roster this season and walker is a walk on ..

thus they don't effect the needed departures for scholarship numbers ..

OU plays Maine in football next year. I didn't even know Maine had a football team.

Hey, they need a cupcake before tackling the SEC.

Touché. The older I get the fatter my fingers seem to be and the more typos I make.

Me too.

Off topic, but who did Florida make mad? Last 5 games back to back - GA, Tx, LSU, Ole Miss and Fla St. Yikes!

[Zuplar]

I was glad to see OU got LSU during rivalry week instead of Missouri or Arkansas. I understand we have more "history" with those other schools, but LSU typically has a football team more on par with OU, so IMO makes for a better game during that last week.

That schedule is an absolute gauntlet. We have to take another major step forward on D and figure out an O-line for JA.

Very much so.

Got the Big OL man today. Eddie Pierre Louis. Number one Interior Offense Lineman for the class of 24.

He's 6' 4" at 320 pounds and run sprints in track. Go look him up on Youtube, it's incredible. Out of Tampa Florida.
