This Years Red Shirts

[fwsooner22]

Can anyone share some information on who redshirted this past season?

Which ones are most likely to be in the rotation?

Geez, that's a tough one. You can use this site and see which players participated in all the games

Here's a start because I have more important things to do (new video game):
Skill positions: Sam Bradford, Mossis Madu, Demarco Murray, ?Eric Huggins
OL: I'm guessing Curtis Bailey and Corey Brandon
DL: Blackard, McCoy

[Brasky7]

i believe Reynolds redshirted due to his knee injury, yes?

Guys who redshirted(correct me if im wrong)
Bradford-qb
Madu-rb/wr
Murray-rb/wr
bailey-ol
Beal-de/lb
beeler-ol
brandon-ol
carter-db
caleb-wr-? not sure if he played in too many games or not
crow-lb
franks-db
macon-dl
mccoy-dl
mensick-te-?
nelson-db
taylor-de


As far as who will play, this is purely my opinion but I would say
nelson-mostly special teams
franks-could get into rotation
madue-how much I dont know
beal-could start
mccoy-could start
murray-could start but should play
carter-could play but probably special teams for a while

[Collier11]

yes and reynolds and I believe he will start if healthy

[Rhino]

I assume you're asking about the freshman class.

Played:
Chase Beeler, Cory Brandon, Chris Brown, Brandon Caleb, Quinton Carter, Jermaine Gresham, Adron Tennell, Trent Williams

Redshirted:
Curtis Bailey, Sam Bradford, Brandon Crow, Dominique Franks, Pryce Macon, Mossis Madu, Gerald McCoy, Eric Mensik, DeMarco Murray, Jonathan Nelson, Adrian Taylor

Not Sure:
Jeremy Beal (Soonersports.com has him playing in the bowl game. Could be a mistake)


i believe Reynolds redshirted due to his knee injury, yes? Yeah.

Notable 2006 Redshirts-

Jonathan Nelson
DeMarco Murray
Ryan Reynolds
Sam Bradford
Dom Franks
Mossis Madu
Jeremy Beal
Curtis Bailey
Gerald McCoy
Pryce Macon

Huggins redshirted in 2005 so he was active last year.

I believe Chase Beeler came in for a few snaps at Center in one game so I'm not sure if he can get another redshirt.

Brandon Caleb and Adron Tennell both got some playing time at WR as true FR

I think Quinton Carter got in on some special teams as a true FR

Obviously Chris Brown took one for the team at RB and filled in very nicely as a true FR

Jermaine Gresham is slowly getting into the offense. Caught the key 3rd/long pass on "the drive" as a true FR

Trent Williams came in and all but dominated as a true FR

2007 Contributors -

Watch out for Gerald McCoy at DT. Kid is very quick off the ball and gets penetration like it's none of his business. McCoy and Granger will be nasty in the middle.

Ryan Reynolds will definitely be back in the mix at LB and fighting for his spot back. However, Lofton is quite the player himself. Lofton, Reed, and Reynolds as starters? We'll see

Jeremy Beal might see some PT as we are pretty thin at DE now.

Dom Franks is highly touted for his return skills if nothing else. Could get a shot at kicks along side Reggie.

And I expect to see Bradford the favorite to take over the QB spot...just my opinion though

[Collier11]

also, dont forget williams and tabon. If they are able to go through spring ball they could have an impact possibly

[soonerndn]

Ben Barresi?

[Easy180]

I'm just glad they didn't burn McCoy's since Bob was hinting at possibly doing just that when the tackles weren't exactly dominating

[fwsooner22]

That's what I wanted to know.....Thanks all you guys
