Is it a possibility? I think so, and here is why.

1. He is going to visit OU this weekend for the big TT game. Gameday will be there and a big win could make an impression on him

2. He gets to see OU play again next week when OU travels to Stillwater. Another chance to make a good impression.

3. If Sam Bradford returns, OU easily has the best QB situation out of the teams he is considering and he has said QB situation will be a factor.

4. OU graduates 2 senior starters at WR and another senior in the 2 deep. He has a chance to immediately come in and make an impact, and possibly start.

5. OU has put 5 receivers in the NFL over the past few years including a first round draft pick.

Am I being realistic or just reaching for straws?

Reaching for straws bud. He just wants to see a top ten matchup live. We will be losing a bunch of WR's after this year. He can start as a freshman

correct. no one else is leaving. I am extremely excited about TT getting more balls this and next year though.

ETA: I do think you are reaching though. Bradford has a year left, and I really don't think OU is a factor here.

Yeah, I know I most likely am, but you would at least think OU has a better shot than say... Bama, or not?

no, they do not have a better shot than Bama, IMO.

Not being smart, but what have any of them done?

I remember Clayton a few years ago. I haven't heard much about him but then again I really don't keep up with OU players. Is he still with Baltimore I believe it was?

Because of Saban? SEC? or just a hunch?

No, Bama is LSU's biggest competition at this point for RR.

just a hunch, but I think he stays in the SEC FWIW.

Not a whole lot, but Clayton has seen pretty good success. He has tied the Ravens franchise record for 100 yard games and has about 2000 yards and 7 TDs in 32 starts. Brandon Jones has done well in Tennessee as well. 20 starts 1000 yards and 8 TDs. Malcolm Kelly is a rookie in Washington.

Exactly..

It doesn't snow in BR either..I believe in Norman is snows every year...??

And it never rains in Tiger Stadium..

All though I was there for the home opener years ago against Oregon State game or the "streaker" game...It rained cats and dogs for about 25 minutes, after that, no rain during the game...

Awful performance but we managed to win..JR first big TD pass!

Kelly. That's the other one I was trying to think of. I remember the whole big issue with his 40-time last year before the draft.
