  OUInsider.com Is BACK! OU Fall Camp Standouts Injuries Position Battles +Recruiting Intel GALORE

  Aug 25, 20261h 7m

  OUInsider.com is BACK — and we’re emptying the notebook after Oklahoma fall camp. Brandon Drumm breaks down the latest sourced Sooners intel, including fall-camp standouts, injuries, developing position battles and what we heard coming out of Oklahoma’s final practices and scrimmage. The show also digs deeper into several revealing fall-camp conversations with players and coaches, including John Mateer, David Stone, Owen Heinecke, DeLand McCullough and Bill Bedenbaugh. What has changed for Mateer entering another SEC season? Why did Stone openly call his freshman season a personal “letdown”? How has the game slowed down for Heinecke? And what changes have McCullough and Bedenbaugh made as Oklahoma attempts to build a more consistent and physical running game? PLUS — recruiting intel galore, including a look at Oklahoma’s potentially special 2028 class and several elite defensive-line targets the Sooners are pursuing. And after months of work, the new OUInsider.com is officially LIVE. First month FREE + first year only $19.99 — 80% OFF.

  Aug 20, 202614 min

  POST-PRACTICE BLITZ: Sourced Sooners Intel, Stock Buys + Rebutting Finebaum’s OU Top-10 Slander... I don't like the "Stock Buys" Needs to be Whose Stock is up in fall camp

  Aug 19, 20261h 10m

  Three weeks into Oklahoma’s fall camp, Brandon Drumm delivers another loaded Post-Practice Blitz featuring sourced team, practice and injury intel. Brandon breaks down the latest offensive-line configuration, center reps, player availability, practice standouts and young Sooners making legitimate moves. He also reveals whose fall-camp stock is rising and which players he’s buying heading toward the season. Then, Brandon responds to Paul Finebaum questioning Oklahoma’s preseason Top-10 ranking. Is OU ranked too highly because of its brutal schedule, or is Finebaum overlooking the talent and College Football Playoff ceiling of this roster?
