Can’t wait to see Millard in the “Bigs”…..
When is he supposed to be back? I think he will make a great NFL fullback.
The 49ers have both Millard and Marcus Latimore. Just think when those two are cleared to play…..Should be fun to watch. Hopefully they can both stay healthy.
Lane Johnson had a tackle last night as well!
Love to follow “Stoop’s guys” in the league, but where are the freakin linebackers other than Lewis? Where are the Bosworths, the Calmus’ and the Lehman’s? Can we get a dominant LB at OU sometime soon?
Did you mean Curtis Lofton who has been a tackling machine/leader for the Saints defense? He’s about as good as they come. Corey Nelson has also been showing up this season for the Broncos (minus this past game, it appears).
Damn, I forgot about Lofton and Nelson. Well, thanks for that. But how about on the current OU squad? Need better recruiting at LB.
Pretty sure that Lofton is by far the best NFL linebacker from the Stoops era. Wish they’d bring him around the program more. Especially for those Louisiana kids.
Great call. Frank Alexander DE from New Orleans and Lofton. Why not some recruiting in the bayou?
Murray going off….best running back in the NFL…Trent Williams the best left tackle in the business.
Tress way kicking the ball out of the stadium and Hannah arguably the best blocking tightend in the NFL these Sooners make me proud…attaboy Stoopsie
