" It's 2009. Sooners are working toward what they hope will be another big twelve championship. 2008 was bitter week as they won their third straight conference title but lost to Florida in the BCS national championship game. So how can they win the second national title of the Bob stoops era. Here's -- a large and with a look at the 2009. Sooners."

" The most important season affecting the sooners this fall was actually made. January. It seemed logical even expected that Heisman winning quarterback Sam Bradford would leave school to -- his fortune in the NFL. Instead he made a decision that both delighted and surprised don't you think."

" I feel that it is in my best interest to come back from the university of local. From my junior season. Why did you come back -- probably best that you know at least once today but. There's a pretty. -- it was a tough decision I knew that knows the right decision for me to come back and something I've really enjoyed being here release of the semester next semester."

" And usually makes great decisions so I've felt he would come. You need to give them time and with the Stanley to do so. Oh but but what it was all done I was excited. Of course then hand just because I noticed before and I feel he'll benefit. So many different ways. And of course it it makes our team stronger that goes outside of very significantly got a guys coming back this very experienced he's second year quarterback that's starting for us. And early in on the game is played in me coming in as a as a receiver and not allow the -- for me because he's been -- situation. As long as good."

" It but Bradford wasn't the only suitor who -- left early for the NFL tight end Jermaine Gresham led the team with fourteen touchdown catches in 08. And getting -- said he was ready for the pros. But he decided to join -- quarterback and returned to W. Having -- game tight to tight end will help especially since all the starters at wide receiver will be new."

" Vigorous they -- he brings a lot of excitement you know Clark's office and I mean kinda. -- in double team me and these other receiver was open to make plays and when they don't double team when he's going down the middle he can make big plays on me is that a sign off."

" And all the other side of the ball a similar story for defensive tackle Gerald McCoy. Many NFL scouts at the boy would have been one of the top defensive lineman in the draft. Dead -- is back for his junior season and will be one of nine returning to. Offensive starters with."

" from the bay. In my in his ankle back it was a great thing -- whether they came back in that. Which I didn't expect him to let them gladly do it whether they can't read him now we'll come back because I want to graduate. Come so close -- graduating and the -- to take you wait for the in his foot --"

" Obviously we didn't feel like we have some of the premier playmakers. At their positions in the country and Gerald -- upfront and Travis lewis'. It's another way at linebacker and and I think -- frank showed it and have been an ability to make a lot of big plays forces last year so we're really feel. We've got some components to have a very very special defense and again you're thrilled to death sentinel that. You know drove turned down the allure of millions of dollars to to come back and there's there's very refreshing in this day and age when it's all about me it never is about Gerald."

" The top priority for the -- it will be finding new safety. Nick Harris and -- B Holmes both three year starters were lost to graduation. Among those competing for their spots will be -- proctor quick. Harder and true freshman Jon bon Harris and linebacker Ryan Reynolds will return from his third major knee surgery. He tore his AC -- Texas and miss the rest of the season. But he's endured another grueling rehab process and we'll try to get back on the."

" Field off -- got a lot of resilience. Wonderful guy and and guys that some bad breaks but overall he's spot for home and and he'll be back out there of you know what the again next year he's he's always a positive guy always a good leader when he's around players. And oh what he's contributing in other ways but but we hope to get him back on the field you know for sure here this summer and and done he'll he'll be good player."

" For the 2009 Oklahoma Sooners football preview finding a life."

" What did the sooners get by having Sam Bradford returned well his numbers from last year were almost staggering. What it is touchdown to interception ratio. Fifty touchdowns. And only eight interceptions. While completing 68% of his passes that he threw for more than 4700. Yards."

" Fantasy football. This allowed to change."
