This kid is athletic, going to be fun watching him the next few years. Played some fullback had a 99 yard touchdown run.

The one player I want now, assuming Marvin Wilson goes elsewhere, is LB Tyler Taylor from Georgia.
Looks like Stoops and staff are hitting Dixie well in Louisiana, North Carolina, Arkansas and Georgia.

I want to see that guy's arm measurement, shoulder to fingertip.

Isnt Taylor on campus this weekend?

6'4" 268 seems a bit light for a DT. Hopefully Schmidt can bulk him up and put about 20 pounds of muscle on the kid. But I do like that he's quick and can run. A 99 yard TD run for any RB is outstanding!

A freshman lineman at 268 lbs will be at around 300 lbs following a redshirt season. As a DE he may not reach that weight. I prefer DE's at OU be fast more than I want them to be heavy.
