A — All done. Big 12 Championship? National Championship? Without a doubt.
B — Britt Mitchell, number 67. He’s huge. At 6'6", 311 pounds you won't have any problem spotting this freshman offensive lineman.
C — Crimson and Cream. Everybody knows the colors of the great Sooners.
D — Diamonds. There will be a lot of diamonds in the rings they will receive this year.
E — Eldridge. Brody is probably the least-appreciated player on the team, mostly because he is a devastating blocker.
F — Freshmen. Here's your chance to see newcomers RB Justin Johnson (6'1", 205), QB Landry Jones (6'4", 220), and OL Britt Mitchell (6'6", 320).
G — Gerald McCoy. Oklahoma hasn't had a Lombardi winner since Tommie Harris. "GK," as his teammates call him, could be the next one in the making.
H — He's back. Matt Clapp redshirted last season, but the fullback has returned, and due to the short number of running backs available, he's getting some carries at that position too. You’ll see—he’s dominant.
I — Ibiloye. Joseph signed with OU in February. He's not here yet, but had the only "I" name that we could identify with the team. You will see the talent with this guy—just make sure you watch the Sooners this year.
J — “Jumpin' Jonathan.” Jonathan Nelson has played well this spring at cornerback. He is the best vertical leaper on the team at 43.5 inches.
K — Kickers. Replacing Garrett Hartley is a tall order. Jimmy Stevens and Matthew Moreland are competing this spring. Signee Tress Way will join the team for August drills. Jimmy Stevens is 5'5", 160 pounds and needs to gain a little weight, but he can still clear 60 yards.
L — Linebackers. This has been an area of focus this year. In particular, keep an eye on No. 22 Keenan Clayton, who is making a successful transition from safety. We still have sensation Ryan Reynolds standing tall at 6'3", 240, as well as redshirt freshman Austin Box standing tall at 6'2", 240.
M — Mossis Madu. The sophomore running back has made the most of the many carries he got this spring. He stands at 5'11", 200 and played as a backup running back and on special teams. He rushed for 87 yards and a touchdown in the season opener against North Texas, and had a career-long 55-yard run against the Mean Green. He rushed for a touchdown against Tulsa, and recorded three tackles on special teams.
