  Draft Scout by Conference









  Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley expressed no bad feelings about Trey Sermon's decision to leave the Sooners as a grad transfer and eventually join Ohio State football. During a teleconference with reporters on Tuesday, Riley praised Sermon as a player and person. He said he understood why Sermon chose to pursue the transfer portal. "Trey did a tremendous job," Riley said according to The Athletic. "He was a great Sooner - really, really good teammate. "Loved the three years we had him. Hated it ended the way it did for him. The middle of last season, I know he was frustrated, and then obviously the injury was just a horrible way for it to end. Hate that it ended on a sour note for him because he did a great job here."

Sermon rushed for over 2,000 yards in his three seasons with the Sooners. About half of that total and 13 touchdowns came in Sermon's sophomore season. But he was already losing carries to Kennedy Brooks before suffering a season-ending knee injury last season. Sermon steps into a running back room at Ohio State that needed help after presumptive starter Master Teague suffered a spring-ending ankle injury. "The portal deal - listen, we get it," Riley said. "We've been the beneficiary of a lot of really good ones that have come in here and done well. You're going to lose some guys, too. I think Trey saw a situation competitively that he felt like there was going to be a better opportunity to play a little more somewhere else. I get it. I respect it. It's part of the world we live in. - Cleveland Plain Dealer
