Lots of people set their
sights high for the Oklahoma football team for 2012-13, but yesterday the Sooners’
coach Bob Stoops announced the suspensions of receivers Jaz Reynolds, Trey
Franks and Kameel Jackson and reserve safety Quentin Hayes. The indefinite
suspensions could spell disaster for the team, since Reynolds, Franks and
Jackson have become the primary receivers for the team. Only one other receiver
has caught a pass all season!
So, without these four
players, what can the Sooners expect next season? Reynolds, Franks and Hayes
may be returning next season, but probably not for the opening game, and Jackson
has announced he will be transferring next semester. Quarterback Landry Jones
has been left without a receiver for his senior year season and the team has
suffered a loss from these suspensions. Thankfully, OU has signed on several
more talented football players, including three in the ESPN top 150 rankings. It’s
too early to tell for sure what will happen, but you can bet we’ll be watching
closely!
