The Path to Norman

Peoples is no stranger to Norman. After sitting out a year due to transfer rules, he was a key part of Norman North’s playoff run the next season, earning The Oklahoman’s Big All-City Offensive Player of the Year honors.

2019 Season

Peoples is an athlete and played all over the field in high school. A starting quarterback, he played receiver on the scout team at North and is now listed as a defensive back for the Sooners. This will be a good year for Peoples to learn the defense, watch the veterans, and get acclimated to OU.
