The Path to Norman
Way, way back in April, 2017, OU was the first D1 program to offer in-state lineman Andrew Raym. Raym attended Broken Arrow High School in the Tulsa area, roughly a two hour drive from Norman. He was a top 100 recruit in the country, with an impressive offer sheet of the who’s who of college football. Andrew committed to the Sooners in the fall of 2017, but decommitted the following spring. He kept receiving offers from major programs, but OU was always in the mix. Around a year later, his OUDNA couldn’t be hidden.

TFB saw Raym in person to get a better impression of the talented lineman and offer thoughts on his skillset, which you can find here.
Career so Far
Despite a starting five with a lot of experience on the offensive line, Raym saw action in nine of the 11 games his freshman season. The lineman showed potential for what could come down the line.

Highlights
This Season
A lot of experience returns on the offensive line, with one big exception: center. With Creed Humphrey departing for the NFL and being picked in the second round, there’s a gap in the middle of the line. Chris Murray and Raym are the leaders for the role, and both could be excellent at the spot. At the moment, Andrew Raym looks to be the leader. Raym is almost identical to Humphrey in measurements (within an inch and less than five pounds) and has received rave reviews this spring. Just a sophomore, all signs point to Raym being the next man to lock down the Sooners center spot for the next couple seasons.
