OU football: Could Kyler Murray return for senior season? Gil Brandt explains tweet

A tweet from former Dallas Cowboys executive Gil Brandt sent Oklahoma fans into a frenzy last Thursday.

"Two things I wouldn't be shocked if they happened in 2019," Brandt tweeted. "1. Kliff Kingsbury was an NFL head coach. 2. Kyler Murray returned to OU."

Brandt's first improbable prediction came true Tuesday afternoon when the Arizona Cardinals hired Kingsbury, the former Texas Tech coach.

As for the second?
