02/27/23 - Austin Stogner, rSr/2024, Oklahoma + More +

When Austin Stogner entered the transfer portal on Dec. 5, he knew where he wanted to go. He just didn't know how to get the wheels in motion. The South Carolina tight end wanted to transfer to OU, where he spent the first three years of his college career. A second stint with a program is rare, even in the unpredictable era of the transfer portal, which is why Stogner was hesitant to return to Norman. "I really want to go back to OU, but I think that'd be kinda weird," Brad Stogner recalls his son, Austin, telling him. But Stogner ultimately did commit to OU on Dec. 8, marking the return of the former All-Big 12 second-team honoree.

It's a major addition for the Sooners, and it's one that materialized in a matter of fewer than 24 hours. The Plano, Texas, native joined OU in 2019 as a four-star prospect. ESPN rated Stogner as the No. 2 tight end in his class, and it didn't take long for him to contribute. Stogner had 26 catches for 422 yards and three touchdowns as a sophomore in 2020, which helped him earn a spot on the All-Big 12 second team. Stogner likely would've put up even larger numbers had he not contracted a staph infection following a hit he took in a Week 10 game against Kansas. He lost about 35 pounds and missed all but one of OU's last five games as a result. - Daily Oklahoman

02/01/23 - Walter Rouse, rSr/2024, Oklahoma + More +

Walter Rouse was a big late win in the portal, as the Sooners secured his commitment after Rouse had already committed to Nebraska. Bill Bedenbaugh had plenty of success last season in the portal, grabbing McKade Mettauer from Cal and Tyler Guyton from TCU. Rouse fits that mold, and with Anton Harrison and Wanya Morris making the move to the NFL, there will be plenty of opportunity to make a quick impact. - Daily Oklahoman

01/15/23 - Walter Rouse, rSr/2024, Oklahoma + More +

The transfer portal giveth, and the transfer portal taketh away - sometimes with the same player in the span of three days. Walter Rouse, the Stanford offensive tackle who committed to Nebraska on Wednesday, flipped to Oklahoma by Saturday. The 6-foot-6, 318-pounder said this week that NU would "shock the world" in 2023. By the weekend, he'd pulled a shocker himself. "I never knew how the power of one's faith and gut intuition could so forcefully persuade a decision," Rouse wrote on Twitter. "That happened to me this week." - Lincoln Journal Star

01/08/23 - Andrel Anthony, Jr/2025, Oklahoma + More +

Michigan sophomore receiver Andrel Anthony Jr. becomes the latest Wolverine to enter his name in the transfer portal. Anthony, who announced his decision to transfer Wednesday night, is the ninth Michigan player since early December to leave the Wolverines. The 6-foot-2, 190-pounder out of East Lansing High had only seven catches for 80 yards and a touchdown this season. As a freshman, he had 12 catches for 248 yards and three touchdowns, including his career day in a loss at Michigan State when he had six catches for 155 yards and two touchdowns. Anthony is the fourth Michigan player this week to enter his name in the transfer portal. He joins: Julius Welschof, Taylor Upshaw, Deuce Spurlock, Cade McNamara, Erick All, Louis Hansen, George Rooks and Alan Bowman. - Detroit News

01/07/23 - *Marvin Mims Jr., Jr/2023, Oklahoma + More +

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 receptions. 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 and 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 passing game this season. He recorded career-highs of 54 receptions and 1,083 receiving yards to go along with six touchdowns. - Daily Oklahoman

01/06/23 - Dillon Gabriel, rSr/2024, Oklahoma + More +

At least one big offensive piece will return for OU football in 2023. Quarterback Dillon Gabriel announced his return on Twitter. "This island boy found a home in Oklahoma," Gabriel posted. In his first season with the Sooners after spending three seasons at Central Florida, Gabriel threw for 3,168 yards and 25 touchdowns with six interceptions in 12 games. It was the fewest passing yards for OU's starting quarterback - including the combined Spencer Rattler/Caleb Williams numbers in 2021 - over the past eight seasons, except for the COVID-truncated 2020 season where Rattler threw for 3,031 yards.

It was the fewest passing touchdowns for an OU starter during the span, including 2020. There were high expectations for the Sooners offense when Gabriel transferred from Orlando, where he threw for 8,037 yards and 70 touchdowns in 19 games from 2019-21 before suffering a career-ending injury. In Norman, Gabriel reunited with offensive coordinator Jeff Lebby, who was the Knights' offensive coordinator in 2019 when Gabriel threw for a career-high 3,653 yards. His performance was inconsistent at times - he completed only 43.8% of his passes against TCU on Oct. 1 before being injured, and threw three interceptions in the Sooners' Nov. 5 loss to Baylor, but he also threw for more than 400 yards twice becoming the first OU quarterback since Baker Mayfield in 2017 to reach the mark multiple times in a season. - Daily Oklahoman
