According to rivals.com he is the number one DT in the nation. In my opinion they have hit the nail on the head. If your a rivals subscriber watch some of his clips and you'll know why. DT is another position that we will be thin at after this year and the thought of McCoy and Granger (#1 DT in the nation from last year) side by side in the middle of the line gives me chills. Here's to hoping hes a sooner!

Hopefully, he likes Momma's cookin'!

[sooner13f]

This is a Okie Stoops need to put the red carpet out for! I would love to see him on our D line.

"We tried to run away from him all game. On one play we ran a counter away from him and he split the double team and threw our running back like a ragdoll for about an 8 yard loss." -Ardmore coach Mike Loyd

[Soonrboy]

He does a very strong family support...hopefully it'll keep him here.

[Scotty]

I saw him coming out of the tunnel before the team at the KSU game

[BOOMERBRADLEY]

I just read that he visited USC and Notre Dame. Has anyone heard any info on this guy?

I have not heard anything yet. Why dont some of you guys up in OK swing by and take him to lunch that might do the trick.

[southern sooner]

If he leaves Oklahoma to play ball with those 2 crap holes that will SUCK....

He visited ND and liked it a lot.

He's visiting USC this weekend, and Miami and VT later on.

[Sooner_Bob]

I'd take as many visits as I could too . . .

Why the hell would he want to go to VT? Honestly they are not an impressive program, and I'm being serious. He would have to be on drugs to go to Blacksburg, VA over all of these other great schools. VT Blows. I HATE VT.

Durrrrrrrrrrr what's a conference championship?

I'm sure that since you're in VA you get overexposed to them, but they're a top 15 team year in, year out. I'm not sure on their DT depth, so maybe that's another reason.

[southern sooner]

Does anyone have any insight on this guy as far as our chance of getting him, are we 50%, greater or less? I would think with DD leaving he knows he could come in and start.

[Scott D]

I think his family's preference is for him to come here...however the decision isn't up to them...at least directly.

I haven't read anything saying he's a lean any way, but I don't think we'll lose out on this kid. Like Scott D, his family wants him close and I doubt OSU could get him at this point.

We'll have to wait and see how his other trips go.

[jreed13]

I repeat, Granger and McCoy side by side would be sick... it would practiacally be cheating

Yeah, they are a top 15 team early every year, won a conference championship last year, and I am over exposed to them. But VT is not a very good program. They get over hyped by the media every year since Micheal Vick, only to lose every game they play against quality opponents in late season play. They also have very dirty players, and a very ugly stadium. Blacksburg is also a crap town in my opinion. The fans around here are also moronic and think they are the greatest program of all time.

Here is some VT stats that prove they suck:

No national titles.
6-12 bowl record.
7 consesus all americans in their history.
only 6 first round draft picks.
Base their entire history off of Micheal Vick and Bruce Bmith.
Played in the Big Easy for years and still did nothing.

Now, compare VT to all the other great traditions and programs offering this kid. That is why I think it would be rediculous for him to go to Virginia Tech. Maybe I am biased, but he has a much greater chance of success at OU. Why leave Oklahoma to go to Blacksburg, VA?
