Don’t keep up with the pro ball unless I know former Sooner is playing. This is a great way to keep track of them all. Loved it last season and am looking forward to it this season, thanks for putting it together.
no prob
Thanks Jordan – I usually just follow AD, Sam, Murray, & Stills but this is awesome cause I only really care about following former OU players.
same here. used to be a much bigger NFL guy when I was playing in multiple fantasy leagues, but dropped that several years ago and my interest waned considerably. so this helps me keep up w/ the guys/league as well.
Yet another outstanding feature this site provides. Love it! Thanks Jordan..
happy to do it
You guys get much bigger and you’re gonna need to hire someone to reply to all the “thanks” and great job” comments! I have turned so many friends onto this site and every single one of them says the same thing…”How the hell did I not know about this?!?!” Until the above happens I fully expect a personalized thanks straight from your fingers…as always, keep it up guys!
thank you for both reading and spreading the good word!
Good to see Finch getting some time, but what will save him a team spot is if he becomes a great punt/kick off returner.
and from what I’ve heard/read, he struggled w/ that last night
That is a very impressive list! Not many other teams can boast that many guys in the league.
no they cannot
Thanks again Jordan. Very, very informative. 2 or 3 of the names I did not recognize, had to look them up. This site is becomning more addictive than my morning coffee.
we’ve kicked around the idea of sponsoring a rehab program, maybe now is the time
Jordan…you guys are incredible. Love the site, the information, and the passion for Sooner football! A big THANK YOU for all of you for all things TFB!!!
thank you for reading!
The list of Sooners currently in the NFL and playing is getting long.
Just an observation…
Thanks for the list! In the past i’ve had to go through every roster on NFL.com just to find all the Sooners, but this is much better.
I found this (http://espn.go.com/nfl/college/_/letter/o) a while back and it’s been a lifesaver. In my experience, it updates very regularly (re: players getting picked up/dropped and what not)
…..welcomed feature……..thxs
I love the Open Post (as I think we all do) but this might have just become my favorite thread
What happened to Ronnell? Injury, or just not playing anymore?
Hey Ed. I think he’s either trying it in the CFL or Arena league. He’s not playing in the NFL right now. That Tennessee game is getting closer….and from the sounds of it, they may not have enough seats for you and yours and me and mine because we’ll have so many recruits there.
1st post on here. This site is like a drug. The best OU site I’ve ever seen.
appreciate the kind words
I’m sure you’ve already gathered, but I’ve updated the post w/ stats from Friday night’s games.
fwiw, Damien Williams’ struggles running the ball were much more a product playing behind Miami’s 2nd team OL, which was a hot mess. Although he (Williams) did leave the game in the 4th qtr w/ an injury.
Have you heard anything regarding his injury? Haven’t seen or heard anything yet, and just curious as to whether it’s season ending. A few people thought he had a shot of making the squad.
I don’t believe they’ve released anything yet. Been looking online since it happened. But as soon as they do I’ll be sure to post something.
I think Hurst has a legit shot to make the Bears, which would obviously be very cool
Broyles looking good tonight. Hope he stays healthy he will be huge for that offense to take pressure of cj and stafford.
Hope Landry can beat out Gradkowski for that back up spot in Pittsburgh
