OU football journal: Mixon's agent speaks with The Sports Animal

NORMAN — A day after Joe Mixon announced his intention to leave Oklahoma early for the NFL, the running back's agent Peter Schaffer joined Dusty Dvoracek and Mark Rodgers on the Sports Animal for a short interview.

Schaffer was defensive during the 10-minute interview and got angry when the radio show hosts opened the interview by asking him about Mixon's decision to leave school. According to Dvoracek's NFL sources, Mixon would benefit from another season in Norman. Schaffer got upset and demanded to know who Dvoracek had talked to.

“You just made a broad statement that you think this kid should've come back like you're some type of NFL guru that knows, talks to people who are giving advice,” Schaffer said.
