100 Days to Football Time in Oklahoma: #62 Ben Tawwater

The Path to Norman

Ben Tawwater played high school football just up the road from Norman at Bishop McGuinness (Oklahoma City). Tawwater played all over the offensive line in high school. An overlooked recruit, he had an interesting story of becoming a Sooner. Coach Gundy and Coach Bedenbaugh connected with Tawwater’s coach, then Ben himself, then offered him a preferred walk-on spot. It didn’t take him long to join the Sooners.

Tawwater took a redshirt season in 2020 and did not play.
