Oklahoma's had some pro days turn into quite the ballyhooed affairs in the past. None more so than the 2010 pro day that had anyone who was anyone watching Sam Bradford complete a perfect throwing routine with a reconstructed shoulder after sitting o...

We took a look at the All-Big 12 crossover team earlier this week, but colleague Ted Miller took a look at the All-Pac-12/NFL team over at the Pac-12 blog on Tuesday. So, what about the Big 12? I'm glad you asked. I love the NFL, and it's time ...

Good to see a handful of Big 12 names called in the first round of the NFL draft on Thursday night. What did I think? Glad you asked. No surprises in the top two picks, which have both been essentially in the can for weeks. A nice touch by Rob...

Three years ago, two of the best quarterbacks in the history of the Red River Rivalry stepped on the field of the Cotton Bowl in Dallas and played one of the greatest games in the rivalry's history. Texas won that day 45-35, and on Saturday, the t...

Dominance last April meant irrelevance this January for the Big 12. The NFL draft is just hours away, and this time last year, the league was bracing for a historic night. By the end of the night, nine Big 12 players were first-round draft picks a...

Hope you all enjoyed the weekend. I was up in Kansas City taking in some hoops in a great atmosphere at the Sprint Center to see the Jayhawks win their eighth title. And while we were all distracted by hoops and brackets, here's what happened in the ...

Charles Jackson's father, Rick Parker, went on Omaha radio on Friday to clarify his son's comments in the Omaha World-Herald. "He's excited about being able to show his new coach or whoever they fill the position with what type of player he is," P...

Blaine Gabbert made the right decision by declaring for the NFL draft. ESPN's Scouts, Inc. has Gabbert as the No. 20 overall prospect in April's draft, and Gabbert received a first-round grade from the NFL draft advisory committee after he submitted ...

July Wednesdays! Who knew? Lots going on today. Former Oklahoma State and Oklahoma coach Jimmy Johnson (he also coached some NFL team) is scheduled to be a contestant on the next season of "Survivor," reports Mark Francescutti and Barry Horn of T...

Jackie Simmons in Raleigh, N.C., writes: I hoping you can help me with some answers. My son Brian Simmons played for OU last season as a OG beside Trent Williams and in front of Sam Bradford. He was not invited to the combine but scored top numbers ...

We're only a few hours away from tonight's first round of the NFL draft, one that could be unprecedented for the conference. As many as five of the first six picks could come from the Big 12. Oklahoma's Sam Bradford is the assumed first pick. D...

Anybody sick of expansion speculation yet? How about a day off? Part of me wishes the first 10 picks could be presented with giant blank checks on stage after they get their "No. 1" jersey. I'm still holding out hope it happens this year. Nice...

Sam Bradford threw 63 passes in front of a crowd that included plenty of possible future bosses. One hit the ground. Bradford, who may have sealed his spot as the No. 1 overall pick in next month's NFL draft with his performance, admitted he pu...

The inevitable leak of Wonderlic scores might be my favorite part of the NFL scouting combine. I don't think I'm alone in that camp. Few associated with this blog are going to be able to throw a ball further than Sam Bradford or outrun Colt McCoy....

A check of what's going on in the Big 12: Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds says Texas and the Big 12 are good for each other and that Texas has not spoken with the Big Ten about its expansion plans. Former Texas quarterback Colt McCoy doesn...
