Bob Stoops & Co. are really impressed with newcomer Justin Brown and his ability to transition into OU’s offense. Brown continues to make news around the nation so here’s a little update for today.

Here we go.

Coffee Sip: Justin Brown said on Monday that he will be graduating with a Penn State degree. He’s not the only one. So will kicker Anthony Ferra who transferred to Texas.

Coffee Sip: Quotable from the Enid News And Eagle: “As running back Silas Redd, who transferred to USC, said, it was a “business’’ decision.

Penn State — even with the probation — could have been a vehicle for Redd and Brown to go on to the National Football League, especially since new coach Bill O’Brien is a former pro assistant.

But USC and OU offered one thing Penn State can’t right now — a chance to play for a championship, even if it’s just the Pac 12 or Big 12 titles.”

Coffee Sip: After the turmoil surrounding the program, coach Bill O’Brien has a lot to handle. So how will he handle the players toughness? Well, it won’t be measured by how his team handles what happened in the offseason on the field. It will be measured by their “ability to stop the run,” per O’Brien.
