Caleb Wilson couldn’t see Oklahoma’s football games but knew what had happened every time he heard the blasts from the modified shotguns.
Wilson once considered himself a proud Sooner. His father, Chris Wilson, was a two-time All-American linebacker for Oklahoma who later returned as defensive ends coach and special teams coordinator for five seasons while Caleb was in elementary and middle school.
Watching his dad’s games was a rarity for Caleb. He preferred to flit around the practice field next to Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium on game days while playing football with the sons of coaches Bob Stoops and Cale Gundy.
