Congrats! A little shocking.

[SoCaliSooner]

Mistake. Save it for your senior year.

[SoonerofAlabama]

Well, either way Congratulations Landry. This is good news.

[yankee]

I bet their kids will be born with mustaches.






Congrats to them, in all seriousness.

[sooner59]

Wow. Good for them.

[BoulderSooner79]

Keeping it in the family! No worries that Whitney pulls a "Rachael McCoy" on us :)

Congrats!

[Section 9]

Won't they be seniors next year? Not in eligibility, but in years in school?
Congrats to them!

[badger]

If this isn't some elaborate internet hoax, big congrats to them.

Here's hoping they celebrate with championship seasons - yes I'm greedy and want them both to have championship seasons :P

[SoonerofAlabama]

Wow, they could have some underlying issues though :D :

Yes, you can totally smoke at the Ford Center as an OU QB... just can't underage drink there.

[MiccoMacey]

Man, I hate to sound prudish. But a QB smoking is not something I'd like to see.

We all have vices, even those who play football for OU.

But smoking...it just looks bad. I know I'll get negged by our resident smokers, but that's a habit you just don't want to see kids start.

[StoopTroup]

If I was Landry I'd do things like hold a cig in a pic I knew was gonna drive hardcores crazy. I think it's to bad he didn't think to roll a pack up in his shirt sleeve like a 50s greaser used to do.

[crawfish]

All I know is, go ahead and sign those unborn kids to a scholarship. :)

Okay..wait til December of your final year of school. With a kid who has had a history of being...distracted....the last thing a starting QB of a school prime for a national championship needs is another distraction.

I guess players get really bored in the offseason too...

I doubt Landry and Whitney are "active" - and Sherri would probably personally kill him if he knocked up the star player on her team.

[swardboy]

Yes, my sarcasm meter is funtioning...but I believe Landry permanently holds a pen for autograph hounding.

[tator]

Investigations will be launched into the source of funds for said engagement ring...

And that's glare on the railing. Cigarette? Really?

[Fish&Game]

I'm shocked he did not seek approval from some of you.

[badger]

I doubt Landry and Whitney are "active" - and Sherri would probably personally kill him if he knocked up the star player on her team.

And Sherri has a death stare. She probably has already considered using it, but she and Stoops are cordial, so they have probably agreed to discipline their own in this regard, knowing that any punishment wielded will be for the betterment for each team :P

landry's family is hella rich. daddy's an oilman. when he started school here, his folks bought a house in rivendell just to have a place to live during football season.

Well, now he's just being cocky....

These are two of the nicest kids you'll ever meet. Congrats to them!

[tator]

Hope she likes beards.

[JLEW1818]

[JLEW1818]

Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones and Sooners women's basketball guard Whitney Hand already had the campus' most high-profile relationship.

Now, not unlike Jones' play in the 2010 season, they're taking it to the next level.

Jones and Hand were engaged on Sunday night, according to multiple postings on Hand's Twitter account, as well as a photo of Jones' proposal on the account.

Jones, however, looks to be the final piece of a trend among Big 12 quarterbacks.

Sorry ladies, but now that Jones has plans to get hitched, he marks the last of the Big 12's top four quarterbacks to leave the single life behind.

Oklahoma State's Brandon Weeden, 27, married his wife Melanie in the summer of 2009.

Baylor's Robert Griffin III proposed to his fiance, Rebecca, after beating Kansas State to become bowl eligible last season.

And Texas A&M's Ryan Tannehill proposed to his fiance, Lauren, last month.

[nighttrain12]

Bad for the Legs landrey


It hasn't hurt him the last 2 1/2 years.

[OU Adonis]

Their first baby will have a big forehead with facial hair.

I am just sayin

[nighttrain12]

I doubt Landry and Whitney are "active" - and Sherri would probably personally kill him if he knocked up the star player on her team.

That's a joke, right? Besides, I'm sure Landry learned from Jason White's 'experiences' with his own girlfriend.

[fwsooner22]

I guess the reasons so many marriages fail is due to the fact that WE are all experts on the subject. Ummm wait a minute............

[SoonerofAlabama]

And of course the actual proposal:

Landry personally spent more than three hours in early childhood arts and crafts hand crafting those "MARRY ME" letters, which he and his classmates then glue-sticked to the fence with care.




























;)

[BoulderSooner79]

Now I'm crying.

[GKeeper316]

i thought i told whitney that wearing verticle stripes adds 15 lbs in pics and video...

and why couldnt landry get a pair of pants that fits... and white socks, bro? come on!!

Congrats to them. They make a great couple.

Seriously, they make a cute couple. I hope they have lots and lots of babies .... after Landry signs his first NFL contract.

[JLEW1818]

will she play in the WNBA?

No, she's marrying someone named Landry, not Lorraine.

I might not be the biggest OU womens basketball fan here, but I still consider myself a pretty big fan of the team.

That said, the WNBA is such a weak pro league that hasn't treated Sooner players very well during its existence. D-Rob is the only one (unless I'm mistaken) to still be on a roster. Others have been invited to tryouts only to be cut by the season's beginning or even during the season.

It should not be the goal of any womens basketball player, because it's a cutthroat, tough league to get in and stay in. There are more opportunities overseas right now.

:D Whitney seems to be heading in the Erin Andrews/Stacey Dales direction, so I'm happy. She'll be a great commentator/sideline reporter/journalist/etc if that's what she chooses to do.

I'm certainly no fashion expert, but I believe those are horizontal stripes.

The last time someone posted a proposal on a wall they were banned from the prom.

[goingoneight]

You're all wrong... LJ's holding his dope. Remember, him and Sam are dealers. ;)

Now, that I have your utmost attention (Nebbish fans)...

1. Landry does NOT smoke. Even if he did, he's not stupid enough to post a pic of him doing so. Anti-smoking nazis would never get off his back.
2. They're inside an arena. No smoking allowed.
3. Texas still sucks.

[AlboSooner]

Creepy thread

[tulsaoilerfan]

Congrats to them both

[soonervegas]

I am just glad we treated what's in Landry's right hand like the Zapruder film.....

[MiccoMacey]

1) Congrats to both of them.
2) Just goes to show the power of suggestion...it looked like a cigarette once I was told it was a cigarette.
3) I don't care what it is, I'm just glad it's not a cigarette. I stand by that.

Well done!

I'm sure the Pukes who are being hateful are aware that Landry carved them up in the clutch last year, at Boone's Farm, against their most sacred team since '88; and that Whitney has also never lost to OSU in her career either.

[WE ARE dirtburglars]

My initial thought was that this could be a distraction for Landry, but then I thought who cares? Yes I love OU football and want to see a championship, but theres more important things in life. Congrats to Landry and Whitney, they look like a very happy couple.

Awesome! Glad he and Whitney are happy. It won't be the first hardware the couple can share in 2011-2012. He'll bring home a stiff-arm trophy and a crystal football if all goes well :)

It is a bit attention whoreish to put it all out there for your "fans".

[NMSooner'80]

Investigations will be launched into the source of funds for said engagement ring...


I'm sure various Aggies in Oklahoma are demanding a media overkill look into that (never mind that Landry's dad could probably afford to give him a whole jewelry store, not just one ring) and then start the additional conspiracy theory that "the media is keeping OSU down" by now giving equal pub to Weeden's actual marriage that's already happened.

I'm also amazed the Texas writers aren't gossiping about illegal inducements. Since Barry Switzer has praised Landry's draft potential, that's enough of a reason for them to hate him already.

[picasso]

It is a bit attention whoreish to put it all out there for your "fans".

Really? Because if I were to get engaged right now my woman would probably post a pic of said ceremony. Get over it.

I can't believe all the people over there who are calling her ugly. Personally I think she's real hot, but I don't see how you could possibly think she's "ugly and fat"...dumb *** texans.
