Offensive tackle Trent Williams said Wednesday he will return to Oklahoma for another season.

Williams, 6-foot-5, 308 pounds, graded out as Oklahoma's best offensive lineman throughout this season, according to coaches.

It will be interesting to see if Williams' return influences quarterback Sam Bradford's decision. Some members of the Oklahoma coaching staff feel Bradford is seriously considering returning to school.

Kent Bradford, Sam's father, said that Sam's decision will be based on what is in his best "long-term" interests.

Defensive lineman Gerald McCoy has already announced he will return. Tight end Jermaine Greshman has been leaning toward entering the NFL draft.

Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops has seen many players throughout his career return when they could have turned pro.

Joe Schad is a college football reporter for ESPN.

I heard announcers say that he was the best of the group.

They say he graded out better than any other lineman, and when you have duke, Jon, and Loadholt, on the other side of the line, thats pretty good. He is also going to move to left tackle to protect Sams blindside, and if you watch the NFL draft you know that position is very highly payed. So I think it was a really smart move by Trent to return.
