This one seems pretty interesting as his Grandfather Ron Freeman went to OSU and played for Phil Cutcheon in the mid 1960s but his father was a rabid OU Sooner during his entire career and used to take shots at OSU in the media during his playing days!!! Quite interesting!!!

It's always nice to have play makers, but he said he wants more playing time. Not to be mean to him but we have way better WRs than that other school in our state. Maybe he can play when BP needs a rest?

in the article, it says that he has his redshirt year left, and BP only has one year left. I think the intent is for him to redshirt and then take over the slot for the next 2 years.

I remember how fast, shifty, and elusive he is. Now, get some interior D line guys and a RB.

His high school resume and records at Heritage Hall exceed that of another highly successful and record breaking slot receiver in the NFL who starred at Heritage Hall and was considered too small to play Div 1 football. Texas Tech took a chance on him, and the rest is history. I think this is a great pick up with unlimited upside.
