Lightbulb Who are the greatest OU players?

Hi all! I'm a small business owner trying to start up a collectables business for OU sports... I need some advice:

Who do you think are the top 5 all time players in Sooner Football and Basketball and how would you rank them (1 being the #1 all time Sooner in that sport)?

Re: Who are the greatest OU players?

Hey, fizboz, and welcome to GoTeamsGo!

There have been a ton of great Sooners football players throughout the years, and it's hard to narrow them down to a top five list. But since you asked, I'd have to go with the four Heisman trophy winners to start:

#1. RB Billy Sims
#2. RB Steve Owens
#3. QB Jason White
#4. RB Billy Vessels

and at #5, RB Tommy McDonald.

Honorable mentions to QB Josh Heupel, LB Brian Bosworth, DT Lee Roy Selmon, TE Keith Jackson. Of course, that leaves out a ton of other collegiate football award winners.

I'm sure the other NCAA football fans on here will be more than happy to offer their input as well.

Thanks Lefty,

What do you (and any other Sooner fans) think about Defensive players? You mention Boz & Selmon. What would the top 5 defensive players be?
