Crimson Countdown: No. 16 Danny Okoye

2024 statistics: Played in 2 games, no statistics

2025 outlook:

If you wished to buy stock on someone who hasn’t shown anything, Okoye might be the simplest and best response.

It’s hard to decrease the buzz train for Okoye right now. Because each time you ask anyone about his progress, they start and don’t stop.

He needed a season to get accustomed to everything, however his redshirt freshman year seems like it will be something unique.

It’s almost everything coming together. Physically, he has all the presents. Once he finds the consistency, watch out. Okoye will be something special earlier than later.

2025 protective end outlook

You know OU has a superstar on its hands in R Mason Thomas. And you understand OU has some young guys seeking to make a splash. The huge thing? Sooners need to find that 2nd guy to choose Thomas. There are a great deal of prospects, however no simple preferred as we struck the summer season. Miguel Chavis has actually done a good task of building up the space. Now, however, everyone requires to go to that next level. It can not be about being raw and having potential in 2025. This season must have to do with the production that is coming along with everything.
