According to a couple of different sources OU is raising money from donors for the purpose of offering deals for a few draft-eligible players and encourage them to stay in Norman an additional year.
The two players who are at the top of the list for this offer are Danny Stutsman and Billy Bowman. From what I've been told, both Stutsman and Bowman are at least receptive to these overtures but we'll keep an eye on this over the next few weeks as the season ends and we get into the draft grade period.
One source also said there will be other players who are offered similar deals and we'll report back as any other names come to light.
The rules are such a joke that I won't be surprised to see some 4th or 5th year NFL OU alums come back and get bigger checks from NIL money. You know, the 8th and 9th year Juniors and 12th year Seniors. NCAA is a joke.
No Marcus Major ?
Guyton?
Billy Bowman is scared to actually hit anyone. He’s not going pro after this year!
I will be so shocked if Stutsman doesn’t come back
