BOOMER & SOONER
Boomer and Sooner are the costumed mascots that represent the University of Oklahoma and the OU Athletics Department. The characters are an extension of the Sooner Schooner and its horses to be enjoyed by fans -- especially children -- at all OU athletics contests. Boomer and Sooner feature traditional collegiate gear as part of their regular uniforms, but they also don team uniforms for football and men's and women's basketball games.
The pair were introduced at the Big Red Rally on campus on August 26, 2005. A number of groups participated in the process of researching and devising the new mascots over a period of nearly three years. The OU Athletics Department and student leaders recognized the need for a mascot to provide representation at all OU athletics contests as well as attend charity events and visit children's hospitals. With that in mind, student congress passed a resolution in favor of the development and implementation of a unified mascot. The Mascot Committee was formed and began work on what would become Boomer and Sooner.
TOP DAUG
Introduced as the mascot for Oklahoma basketball during the mid-1980s, Top Daug symbolized OU's ascent to dominance in the Big 8 conference under the leadership of the legendary head coach Billy Tubbs. Renowned for riling up energetic crowds and engaging in eccentric antics, Top Daug enjoyed two remarkable journeys to the Final Four in 1988 and 2002, clinching four regular-season conference titles and six conference tournament championships.
While passionately supporting the OU women's basketball team, the Sooners secured a pair of Big 12 titles and made it to the 2002 Final Four.
In 2005, Top Daug retired from the LNC baseline, but made a memorable comeback during a men's game in 2008 as part of the 20th-anniversary celebration of the 1988 Final Four team. He returned to OU Basketball sidelines on January 14, 2020 as permanent mascot alongside Boomer and Sooner.
