U40: It's been a cool week of getting back to football stuff

Author: SoonerScoop.com March 12, 2026 Duration: 1:37:52
We've been busy around the Scoop offices and that's the way we like it. OU spring football media day was on Monday and Carey is here with some of his impressions since Eddie and George have been burning up the YouTube channel. Got some leftover thoughts from all the guys as well, like what the offensive line could be with the current roster, how productive we think some of the new tight ends could be. Are we not talking enough about Trynae Washington at tight end? After Jim Nagy's comments on Owen Heinecke the other day, George has an update on where Heinecke is in terms of his next move. We've talked a lot about the future freaks weekend, but what about the aftermath? Where did the Sooners make up the most ground? And with what players? George and Carey delve into the decision that has to be made in regards to Porter Moser and we can't get enough of Jason Witten.
