We’re going to compile some tweets concerning fall camp below. There are lots out there, but here are a few we wanted to highlight. Thanks to the guys tweeting for passing along the information on twitter.
– Austin Seibert: Seibert is back to practice earlier than we had anticipated and is now with the team.

– Rodney Anderson: Rumors started flying around today when it was noticed that Anderson was not at practice. This should ease any concerns.
Rodney Anderson's absence from Thursday practice labeled "personal matter" by Lincoln Riley, who added RB will be back on Friday. #Sooners

Also, even though he has been cleared, it’s good to see that Anderson is at full contact.
Riley added Rodney Anderson has had as much contact as anyone else right now. Also reminded RB was fully cleared last spring. #Sooners

– Alex Dalton: As we mentioned in the Open Post, Dalton suffered a season-ending injury before camp. Best wishes for him going forward.
– Receivers
Riley on Jeff Badet: "You can see the maturity. You could tell that he's not a true freshman. You can tell he's been in the fire." #Sooners

– Defensive Backs
Lincoln Riley on CBs: All 3 of those guys – (Thomas, Motley, Parker) they are playing well and … you need that in this league." #Sooners

Riley (more on CBs): They are all playing well … they are all making some plays. They've all stood out during early days of camp" #Sooners

Cooks: "I knew Robert Barnes was athletic, but didn't know how smart or how well he would pick up on the system. He's playing his ass off."
