This Season
Caiden Woullard had an excellent offseason in Norman. He was frequently mentioned as standing out for his work ethic and size.
OU brings back R Mason Thomas and Ethan Downs as the likely leaders on the EDGE. However, Woullard brings excellent experience and size to the spot. Expect the newcomer to make an impact immediately this fall.
