Oklahoma RB/KR Alex Ross joins graduate transfer market

He's leaving OU. Has legit return skills. We were/are not so good at that. Fit here, no?

 

[SubbaBub]

Do we plan to block for him if he comes?

After reading that article..I don't think he will be a fit here. He wants touches in the offense and there is no way I see him getting the amount he wants with Newsmen and Johnson here.

Internet on Mars is spotty at best.

6'1" 220 with speed, dynamic kick returner? Naahh, does not sound like a RKG. I would have no issues with UConn entertaining the possibility. I would not be worried about lack of carries, we are a run-first team and we got by just fine with Brown, Dixon and Todman together in the backfield. Not to mention it's an injury-prone position. Maybe he's another DJ Shoemate (great ST guy BTW), but god knows we need a kick returner.

That said, he's an OK kid who is most likely either going to want to hitch on to a lower P5 like an Illinois, Vandy or Kansas - or look for a local team like Houston or Tulsa.

I used to post threads like thesevery out of desperation. Now that we seem to have righted the ship it seems like a player like this could potentially help fill a need.
Haven't we been dead last in BCS football in the return game since HCBD got here?

There is no doubt that this kid would fill a need. Not a shot in the dark from a "needs" perspective, but tough to envision him as a fit due to geography and the AAC.

Heading to Mizzou

I have a feeling I might've been on to something with this kid. His move to Mizzou not completely official. Report: Oklahoma's Alex Ross to transfer to Missouri

Not to mention somebody from our camp is following him on twitter. Just saying. This kid for one year with his return skills. Couldn't hurt us.
