The Path to Norman
Marcus Alexander, a Sunnyvale, Texas product, started seeing offers during his junior season. Texas-based programs comprised most of his offers at first. May 2018, he received an OU offer and took a visit to campus.

Highlights
This Season
OU returns most of their starting experience on the offensive line from 2020. Marquis Hayes and Tyrese Robinson will once again look to lock down the starting guard spots in 2021. After that, Alexander will be one of the first ones to rotate in. Both Robinson and Hayes are seniors; Marcus can continue developing and earning minutes this season before potentially taking over one of the starting jobs in 2022.
