Running back Joe Mixon is set to make his Oklahoma debut after a year suspension for a domestic violence incident and now senior linebacker Frank Shannon is set to return for his one-year suspension as well.

The Sooners open practice Thursday.

Shannon sat out all of last season, suspended by the school for violations of a sexual misconduct policy. The case went all the way to the Oklahoma Supreme Court. Oklahoma investigated the incident, which fell under Title IX responsibility after Shannon was accused of rape.
