Not that this is a surprise to anyone at this point but I’m told #Sooners coaches do not expect Kyler Murray to return.

I can confirm that Oklahoma coaches do not expect Kyler Murray to return next season. @ryaber first reported. Not entirely surprising, but still interesting given the speculation the last couple weeks.

Murray accounted for 54 touchdowns (42 passing, 12 rushing) in a Heisman Trophy-winning season that saw him lead OU to the College Football Playoff, where the Sooners lost to Alabama in the semifinals.
