Oklahoma football: D.J. Graham the X-factor in wide-open Sooner receiver corps

While the general assessment by those in the know in college football is that the Oklahoma football will be better in 2023 than it was in a highly disappointing 2023 season, it isn’t without some concerns.

One of those concerns is at the wide receiver position. The Sooners return only two receivers, Jahlil Farooq and Drake Stoops, who caught more than three passes last season. Beyond those two, the receivers who return from the 2022 roster had a combined five catches a year ago.

Outside of Stoops and Farooq, who were OU’s third- and fourth-leading receivers last season, Oklahoma has plenty of talent and depth at the position, but not a lot of measurables or game experience to draw from.
