The Sooners were a frequent topic of conversation at SEC Media Days this week, with a number of players and coaches from different schools talking about one of the conference's newcomers.
DALLAS — Over the past week, players and coaches from each SEC institution took center stage at SEC Media Days to talk about the upcoming season.
MYKEL WILLIAMS: I am familiar with Brent Venables. I remember he was the DC at Clemson, recruited me for a while, but I'm not too familiar with Oklahoma and their history, but I'm excited they're in the SEC, though. He's just a great coach, great defensive coordinator, great defensive mind.Q.
HAROLD PERKINS: I think Texas and Oklahoma is a great addition to the SEC. I obviously feel, some of you might feel the same, but the SEC brand of football that you can play at the college level and just adding those two great universities to the SEC can't help nothing but the SEC go up and the school go up. I think it's a great addition.
LANE KIFFIN: You talk about two of the top programs in the history of college football, and then as I look at things, too, like I said earlier, places that are really hard to play and then you get these night games filtered in and places get really hard to play with fan bases like Oklahoma and Texas. That's really exciting for the conference, and continues to kind of elevate the super conference.Q.
