OU suffered one of its biggest losses of the offseason Friday. Junior wide receiver Marvin Mims announced his decision to declare for the 2023 NFL Draft. He finishes his three-year college career with 2,398 receiving yards and 20 touchdowns on 123 recept ions. Mims is ranked in the top 15 in program history for receiving yards (eighth), receiving touchdowns (10th) and receptions (15th). "To my brothers and coaches, thank you for pouring into me and pushing me every day to be the best person I can be on a nd off the field," Mims said via a statement on Twitter. "Sooner Nation, thank you for making a 17-year-old boy's dreams come true! The endless support and love will never be taken for granted."Mims has been an impact player for OU since his first season in 2020. The former four-star prospect out of Lone Star High School in Frisco, Texas, racked up a team-high 610 yards on 37 receptions and tied the Big 12 true freshman record of nine touchdowns catches. Mims served as the driving force in OU's p assing game this season. He recorded career-highs of 54 receptions and 1,083 receiving yards to go along with six touchdowns. - Daily Oklahoman

In his first game back from concussion protocol, Dillon Gabriel appeared to have a goal. Find Marvin Mims, and get him the ball. The junior wide receiver was targeted 16 times by Gabriel in their last outing against Kansas. Mims made the most of his oppo rtunities, turning his targets into a career-high nine receptions for 106 yards. Mims accounted for 31 percent of Gabriel's completions, 38 percent of his attempts and 26 percent of his passing yards. After the game, Mims said he wasn't sure if he'd ever been targeted that many times during his collegiate career. Against Kansas, it was a concerted effort to keep him heavily involved. "You've got to give [Mims] the ball," said OU tight end Brayden Willis, who also finished with more than 100 receiving ya rds."He's so explosive, he's so fast, he does such great things with the ball in his hand. and he also does great things without the ball in his hand. He does a great job of blocking if anybody ever catches it. Getting him involved is imperative. "He makes the offense go and everybody kind of goes off of him. He gets a lot of receptions, they start paying attention to him and other guys can get in as well. So it's imperative that we get him going and involved early." It was another example of how Mims has been the Sooners' clear-cut No. 1 receiver in what has been a career season for him. He leads the team in receptions (32), yards (542) and yards per catch (16.94) while adding five touchdowns. He also leads the team in targets with 57. Willis i s second on the team in targets with 32. He's already tied his catch total from last season, and he's on pace to far surpass his 37-reception campaign from 2020. - Norman Transcript

Marvin Mims caught seven passes for 163 yards and two touchdowns to help No. 7 Oklahoma overcome a slow start in a 33-3 victory over Kent State on Saturday night. Dillon Gabriel completed 21 of 28 passes for 296 yards and three touchdowns, and the Sooner s finished with 430 yards of offense. Oklahoma has won 11 straight home games and 29 of its last 30. Oklahoma (2-0) was scoreless and trailed Kent State (0-2) as late as the final minute of the first half before Mims played key roles on touchdown drives to end the half and start the second. That helped the Sooners move to 4-0 against current Mid-American Conference teams.Collin Schlee passed for 131 yards and rushed for 55 yards for Kent State, which is the only Football Bowl Subdivision team thi s season playing three nonconference games against opponents from Power 5 conferences. The Golden Flashes lost their opener at Washington and will visit No. 2 Georgia in two weeks. Kent State played the Sooners on even terms in the first half and Oklahom a was fortunate to be ahead 7-3. The Golden Flashes had 11 first downs to Oklahoma's seven and limited the Sooners to only 7 rushing yards before halftime. To that point, Kent State had converted on six of 11 3rd-down attempts and owned a two-to-one edge in time of possession. - Oklahoma/AP College Football

As Oklahoma begins practice for the coming football season, several assumptions are being taken for granted. Quarterback Spencer Rattler will be a Heisman Trophy candidate. Kennedy Brooks will lead the running back committee. The Sooners are the clear cl ass of the Big 12 Conference, in line to win a seventh straight league crown. Marvin Mims is the No. 1 option at wide receiver. While that last one it may well be true, the fact it's presumed is interesting because Mims caught all of 37 passes last seaso n, the same number as Theo Wease, and 25 fewer than 2019's leading receiver, CeeDee Lamb, who caught 62.It was a big season for a true freshman, which Mims happened to be. It was not, however, a huge season for the Sooners' leading receiver. That last time OU's most frequent pass catcher topped out at fewer grabs was 2005, when Malcolm Kelly caught 33 passes thrown by Rhett Bomar or Paul Thompson in a forgettable four-loss season. The last time even OU's No. 2 receiver was limited to so few grabs was in 2016, when Dede Westbrook caught 80, Joe Mixon, a running back, caught 37 and Geno Lewis caught 32. Mims will be looking to catch many more this campaign, for the difference between being a freshman and sophomore are immense. "It's a whole other mindset," he said. "I've done it for a year now, I'm coming in, I'm ready to build." - Norman Transcript

Oklahoma and Texas took the first formal step Monday toward moving to the Southeastern Conference and leaving the Big 12 behind. The only schools to win college football national championships during the Big 12's 27-year history notified the conference t hey would not be renewing an agreement that binds its members through 2025. In a joint statement, the schools made no mention of the SEC and said “the universities intend to honor their existing grant of rights agreements.""However, both univers ities will continue to monitor the rapidly evolving collegiate athletics landscape as they consider how best to position their athletics programs in the future," the schools said. Texas and Oklahoma have been in discussions with the SEC about joining the league, though neither school nor the powerhouse conference has acknowledged that publicly. The "grant of rights" gives the conference control of the school’s media rights and runs concurrent with the Big 12's television contracts with ESPN and Fox, w hich expire in 2025. - AP College Football

Marvin Mims enrolled at Oklahoma in time for its spring semester a year ago, angling to take advantage of OU's offseason programs. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic denied the 5-foot-11 receiver from Frisco, Texas, his opportunity to go through spring f ootball practices, but his production as a true freshman never suggested he wasn't ready to provide to the Sooner offense. Mims' athleticism helped him thrive in his first year, but his ability to bring down tough catches made him one of OU quarterback S pencer Rattler's most reliable targets. "He made the ones he was supposed to make, then he made several that were competitive balls," OU coach Lincoln Riley said. "That's a lot of times what separates elite players. He was able to pick it up mentally and kept producing. We honestly probably should have played him a little bit more than we did."Perhaps Mims could have built more trust had he went through a proper spring camp. Still, Mims didn't let the pandemic, which kept OU away from on-campus w orkouts from mid-March to early July, affect his preparation. "I was at a disadvantage, but so were the other guys coming in during the summer, because they missed so much time, too," Mims said. "Basically, I was just staying on myself, making myself get up every day, do the extra stuff I needed to do and from the playbook, it was all just memorization, just mental." - Norman Transcript

Spencer Rattler threw for 332 yards and two touchdowns, and Oklahoma won consecutive games for the first time this season, beating TCU 33-14 on Saturday. Marvin Mims had scoring catches of 50 and 61 yards and set up one of Gabe Brkic's four field goals w ith a 38-yard punt return, while Rattler averaged almost 26 yards per completion with five connections of at least 33 yards. Unranked since the first week of October, Oklahoma (3-2, 2-2 Big 12) hasn't gone this long outside the Top 25 since 1999, when fo rmer coach Bob Stoops started building what became a perennial contender again before it was passed along to Lincoln Riley. The Sooners had never been unranked in three-plus seasons under Riley before consecutive losses to Kansas State and Iowa State sen t them tumbling out of the poll from a familiar spot in the top five. But OU built on a four-overtime win over rival Texas by returning to the Dallas-Fort Worth area two weeks later and dominating the Horned Frogs (1-3, 1-3). - Oklahoma/AP College Footba ll

Spencer Rattler was the star of OU's season-opening 48-0 blowout of Missouri State on Saturday. There's zero doubt about that. But Rattler wasn't the only Sooners offensive youngster to emerge as a star in the win. Two other freshmen - running back Seth McGowan and wide receiver Marvin Mims - certainly had the looks of players who will be making their marks for OU over the next few years. "They both did some good things," Sooners coach Lincoln Riley said. "They're two pretty explosive kids for their age . Both kids physically are in a pretty good place and have picked stuff up well. They both have some home-run ability." Though McGowan scored first - his 1-yard touchdown run ended OU's first drive - it was Mims that first showed off his big-play ability .Mims danced through a group of defenders on his first punt return, then found some wide-open space. The return wound up being only 17 yards after a collision with a teammate slowed Mims' momentum, allowing a Missouri State defender to make a tack le he might not have made otherwise. But it gave OU fans a quick indication of Mims explosiveness. The Sooners had only three punt returns 17 or more yards last season. Mims had three in the first quarter of Saturday's game. "He was a pretty polished kid coming out of high school," Sooners outside receivers coach Dennis Simmons said recently of Mims. "He's stepped into a room with an opportunity with a sense of confidence and understanding that, 'I'm not just happy to be here but I belong here." - Daily Oklahoman
