(8/20) Sooners Honor Gautt, and Final Scrimmage Complete

Oklahoma Sooner Football Articles and Notes

University of Oklahoma honors Prentice Gautt: In the fall of 1956, the University of Oklahoma issued jersey No. 38 to a young man from Oklahoma City who shattered stereotypes and set sail on an athletics career marked by achievement, decency and service to thousands of student-athletes. The player who wore that jersey was Prentice Gautt, the first black football player at OU. To honor the 50th anniversary of that achievement, jersey No. 38 will not be issued for the 2006 season at Oklahoma. Instead, the Sooner players will wear a No. 38 sticker on the back of their helmets to commemorate one of the university's most popular alumni. Gautt passed away in March of 2005.

Final Oklahoma Scrimmage Complete: OU concluded its preseason practices with a two-hour session in full pads at Owen Field on Saturday. Classes begin Monday on the Norman campus. The team reverts to its normal schedule next week with a return to the Bud Wilkinson practice fields south of Gaylord Family - Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. A very limited supply of tickets returned by the opponent are available for the game. Sooner fans are encouraged to order online (SoonerSports.com) or call the OU Athletics Ticket Office toll-free at (800) 456-GoOU. (SoonerSports.com)

Bomar at Sam Houston Practice: Former Oklahoma quarterback Rhett Bomar has yet to make a decision on where he is going to transfer, but he was back in Huntsville this week and dropped in on the Bearkats. Bomar was at Bowers Stadium on Tuesday morning to watch the Sam Houston State football team in action. The Bearkat coaching staff still can't talk much about Bomar, who has been busy looking for a new school for more than a week. "There isn’t much more we can say about the situation," SHSU head coach Todd Whitten said. "There is a lot to consider, and we just have to wait for a decision." (The Huntsville Item)
