The first Oklahoma recruiting class with Lincoln Riley as head coach, the 2018 class, was one that got Sooner fans excited. The top ten class brought in talented players who can both contribute immediately and help stock up depth.
Last year, TFB looked at SS17 each week to see how they contributed on the field. This year, we’ll do the same with ST2K18, looking at stats and big plays.
Game Stats
* Injured players Baldwin, Redmond, and Thompson are currently assumed to be on a path to redshirt.
* The share of each stat category that ST2K18 was responsible for is shown on the right.
Seven members of ST2K18 played in Game 5.
Season Stats
ST2K18 - 2018 Total (Game 5) - V1
On the season, an average of 8 members of ST2K18 are playing per game.
Redshirting
The new NCAA rule allows players to participate in up to four games and still classify the season as a redshirt. As such:
* Ronnie Perkins, TJ Pledger, Bookie, and DaShaun White are now ineligible to redshirt.
* Jaylon Robinson and Brayden Willis are at the maximum and cannot play in anymore games and still redshirt.
