Oklahoma football: Transfers have been big contributors to OU’s success

What got me thinking about this is the flood of names that are now appearing every year on the college football superhighway better known as the transfer portal. It’s like the free agency of college football and an additional way for teams to fill roster needs, if only on an interim basis.

Junior colleges have long been a fertile ground for players who may have needed one or two years to develop the skills and maturity needed to compete at the Division ! level or may not meet the academic requirements of a bigger school coming out of high school.
