From ESPN: "He's one of the fastest players in the Big 12, and the hardest to get two hands on in the open field. He also could have made the list of workout warriors from last week: He benches 310 pounds at 5-foot-11 and 178 pounds.

The Sporting News on Ryan Broyles: "We asked Texas coach Mack Brown what makes playing against Broyles so tough. "Fast," he said last month in Austin. That speed helped get him to the end zone 15 times as a receiver in 2009. No one runs better after the catch. A shifty, silky runner who can find a spot in the..."

One of the most popular traditions surrounding OU football is Meet the Sooners Day. The annual event kicks off preseason practice and gives Sooner fans an opportunity to interact with the players and coaches. The 2010 Meet the Sooners Day is slated for Friday, Aug. 6 at the rugby practice fields west of Lloyd Noble Center.
OU Announces Meet the Sooners Day for August 6JUST ONE MONTH AWAY
Hard to believe but Oklahoma football is just over a month away. The Sooners begin preseason practice the first week of August. Here's a quick look at the preseason college football magazines:
