Message: <blockquote data-quote="Plainosooner_rivals54053" data-source="post: 129361823" data-attributes="member: 1400009">OU has a young corner who is really good. When he plays, we can put two guys on an island and let the rest of the dfense really get after you. Unfortunately, he has been suspended twice in three games.The first was for thr first quarter in the opener. The second was for the whole Tulsa game.  He did not screw up until Friday before Tulsa. So his replacement, a true freshman, played his on an island role, and succeeded about as well as the old .. I played a doctor on tv.. would do with your gall bladder surgery. I do not think anybody has heard whether Jordan Thomas will play against WVU or not. We are a different team with him, especially against spread it out offenses. And if he does not, at least the staff should know and have a game plan that fits whoever will be out there.If his did his penance sufficiently, OU will be very solid on defense. Deepest defense in seven years at least.  Two really to DLs who can be disruptive. Best linebcker set in a long time. But it is a great defense, potentially if Thomas is out there with Sanchez who is close to  great college corner.We have a safety who is perfect to cover a slot rec, Stephen Parker. My guess is that if the Thomas bridge is burned beyond recognition, then Parker might end up at corner, which makes us less effective in two places. We also have a soph safety named Thomas but he aint the corner.This team has one obvious weakness. The OLine is very suspect. And two of them missed the Tulsa game. The two senior captains. One was in street clothes. The other tried a series and couldnt go. If the OLine improves enough and we have both terrific corners available, and decent luck healthwise, then OU is a petential final four team. But that is a lot of ifs.</blockquote>
