The town was flying colors galore. Purple and gold and Crimson and Cream. OU and AD covered the costs. Had a huge turn out that was porbably the biggest ever gathering of OU players ever. Probably over 100 former OU players attended. Stoops spoke and was very eloquent. Wonderful Service in the school gym.
Afterwards the old Sooners donned special shirts for a photo. Many of the players (along with their wives)& (hot hot hot), stayed for a very long time. Stoops and company Cale and Bobby Jack etc... hung around all evening until the family started to leave. AD stayed around taking pictures and giving autographs all evening. Dvoracek, Strait, Ingram, AD et al sat around and stories were flying though the air. It was a great celebration of a talented young man taken from us too early. RIP Brandon, thanks for the memories.

It is because he was an incredible guy.

Wow, that sounds like a wonderful send-off. I hope his family was comforted to know he was loved by so many. It's just all so sad, rough month to be a Sooner, I'm glad May is over.

Very, very nice thing for OU and AD to do. Nice for our Sooner players to go and pay their respects to him and his family. Brandon will be missed.

RIP
