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.

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 snaps could come down the line.

In 2021, Raym looked ready to see even more action at the center spot. Unfortunately, the big man was banged up on and off throughout the season, trading off the center spot with Robert Congel.

2022 was another year of consistent starting for Raym. He earned Academic All-Big 12 Second Team honors and honorable mention All-Big 12 honors. Unfortunately, he missed the final three games of the season due to injury.

This Season

While the line will have a different look than it did in 2022, a veteran Raym is expected to once again start at center. Although the injury bug has plagued him throughout his career, Raym brings a lot of experience to the center spot. Hopefully the big man can be injury-free in 2023 in his fourth season as a Sooner.
