a request.......any chance you can add to your 2008 recruit (fb) thread, the names/info of the kids we're after.....the ones we've offered, etc

[Rhino]

That's a pretty time intensive project, I doubt I'll keep a running tally or anything. Generally, it's hard to keep track of who OU really offered and who you think they offered and when they may get offered, etc.

But, I'll give you a list of some of our top targets right now (in no order):

LB Arthur Brown (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=54115&Sport=1) (Wichita, KS) - 6'3, 225
WR Jameel Owens (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=39931&Sport=1) (Muskogee) - 6'3, 210, 4.4
DE Stacey McGee (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=39928&Sport=1) (Muskogee) - 6'5, 280
OL JB Shugarts (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=44881&Sport=1) (Klein, TX) - 6'7, 302 - committed to Ohio State

ATH Kye Staley (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=59111) (Guthrie) - 6'1, 210
QB Landry Jones (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=54259&Sport=1) (Artesia, NM) - 6'4, 205 - committed to OU
QB Andrew Luck (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=53994&Sport=1) (Houston, TX) - 6'3, 195
QB Nathan Stanley (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=55109&Sport=1) (Tahlequah) - 6'5, 195
RB Sam McGuffie (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=54392&sport=1) (Cypress, TX) - 5'10, 191
RB Harrison Jeffers (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=43504&Sport=1) (Lawton Ike) - 5'9, 195, 4.41 - committed to Texas Tech

WR DeSean Hales (http://rivals100.rivals.com/viewprospect.asp?pr_key=56620&Sport=1) (Klein, TX) - 5'10, 165, 4.41

There are more, there always are. These guys are just guys we have offered, we are showing big interest in or are showing big interest in us.

[jk the sooner fan]

thats exactly what i was looking for and i appreciate it! thanks very much

[insuranceman_22]

Nice job Rhino! I didn't realize Owens ran a 4.4, geez.....

[Collier11]

Hey Rhino, any word on whether malcolm williams passed his test and is at OU now???

[Rhino]

As far as I know, he isn't enrolled at OU. Word about a month ago was that he'd be at OU in the summer or fall at the earliest.

Test scores probably aren't back yet either.

[Collier11]

Cool, thanks!!

[snp]

Might as well add Habern to the commit list.

[Rhino]

Things looking good on the Calhoun front.

Rhino,
I thought I heard from the coaches that Tabon got his school work in line and is currently practicing with the team. Is that true and if so, any word on how he is looking so far?

Rhino,
I thought I heard from the coaches that Tabon got his school work in line and is currently practicing with the team. Is that true and if so, any word on how he is looking so far? He's still enrolled at OU, but I don't know his status with the team. He isn't on the spring roster, so they might be giving him a full year of school work before he joins the team. Or they might not have enough schollies for him this spring.

It's rumored he got into a little bit of trouble recently, but it doesn't seem like it's anything real serious.

[Rhino]

I really need to start reading Tulsa World (http://tulsaworld.com/news/article.aspx?articleID=070308_2_B5_hWinn73577&breadcrumb=Article%20Search). They're 10x better in their sports coverage than the Oklahoman.

At linebacker, redshirt freshman Daniel Tabon will sit out the spring to concentrate on improving his academics.

[snp]

I thought he received a PI. That's like a prerequisite for college students.

[Collier11]

thanks guys

[arklahoman36]

Rhino, have a question for you.

A WR out of Warren, Arkansas: Jarious Wright, 5'11 175, 4.36, 51 catches 1,086 yds & 15 td as a junior is telling a moderator are an Arkansas board that he's been offered by Okla.

It is also being reported on the same Ark board that OU has offered a WR from Little Rock Central Arkansas Christian: Joe Adams, 6'1 178, 4.4, 857 yds rushing, 11.4 per carry, 14 td/ 29 rec 633 yds 9 td/ 8 punt returns 220 yards 2 td as a jr.

Have you heard about these offers being extended?

[Rhino]

Wright has been offered.

I haven't heard anything on Adams. That doesn't mean he hasn't been offered - just haven't heard anything about it if he has.
