Author: SoonerScoop.com March 26, 2025 Duration: 1:42:02
Josh is back from his cruise and in his absence, OU lost a running back battle to Texas A&M for Jonathan Hatton. Where does OU stand at the running back position? Could they be looking to the portal for their next big bruiser out of the backfield? Jennie Baranczyk also pulled off one of the biggest commitments in OU women's basketball history when Aaliyah Chavez, the nation's No. 1 player, committed to OU yesterday. And it seems more and more likely that Porter Moser will return to OU unless some things change quickly. How can OU improve their men's NIL to truly compete with the big boys? And we've got more impressions about the team after another viewing session on Tuesday. We also got to talk to several players after practice. You'll hear our impressions on the attitude of this team and the development of the offense. OU baseball has won both of its SEC series so far this season but it's about to get a lot tougher.
