While it appeared that OU had come up with the action it is taking against its starting quarterback ahead of the judgement of the court, the reality is, Mayfield accepted a plea deal in the court case on June 14, the day before the internal punishment was disclosed.
As most Sooner fans have heard by now, the terms of the plea deal accepted by the two-time Heisman Trophy finalist and former Big 12 Player of the Year, as reported in the Oklahoma City Oklahoman and numerous other media outlets, require him to pay $300 in fines, $160 in court costs and $483.
