Chad Whitener on Marcus Keyes: “He gets after it. When you meet him off the field, he’s such a nice guy. But when he straps it up, he’s a totally different guy. When I have to hit him, it’s not fun. He keeps his head down; he drives people. His neck does not move at all when he hits you. He’s going to be a really big part of that offensive line the whole time he’s here.” [NewsOK]

Mike Gundy on his offense: “There’s a role for what (Dennis) Rodman did when he played, and it wasn’t what Michael Jordan did.” [Tulsa World]

Around the League

Just how healthy OU is headed into Saturday’s showdown at Houston? Bob Stoops said the only players expected to miss are Rodney Anderson and Curtis Bolton. But a number of guys were in yellow jerseys this week, meaning no contact. And one of those, starting defensive tackle Matthew Romar, has been going through concussion protocol the last couple of weeks. Houston’s offense is good enough on its own so Sooners need all available players to be good and ready. [Go Pokes – $]
