I've seen few reports but this is the first time in The Oklahoman. I just don't see it happening. We would be really overloaded at QB next season, with 5. Counting Mayfield it would be 6.

Report: Former Texas Tech quarterback Baker Mayfield to enroll at Oklahoma and walk on to football team | News OK

Former Texas Tech quarterback Baker Mayfield intends to enroll at Oklahoma in January and walk on to the football team, the Austin American-Statesman reported Thursday morning.

When contacted Thursday, an Athletics Department spokesman said he was unaware of Mayfield’s plans to enroll at Oklahoma.

According to the Austin American-Statesman, Mayfield hadn’t contacted the OU coaching staff about his plans.

I'm not sure you can have too many QB's. There seems to be a history of them getting tired of waiting and transferring somewhere.


To bad that we cant just get some to change their position.
I remember Switzer having a butt load of QB's and then convincing some of them to move to Linebacker and becoming a hitting machine.

Barry moved a bunch of them from QB's in high school to the defensive backfield in college. And they thrived....some going on to pro careers. Larry Roach (#26 and a guy who often laid the wood to people even though he only weighed 185 lbs.) once told me "I love it; now I get to knock the fuck out of people". Those guys could read a quarterback's mind and it made a ton of difference on many occasions.

I know another good example of a converted qb... His name is JT Thatcher.
