OU football: Motley's ejection thins out cornerback depth

MANHATTAN, Kan. — Parnell Motley lost his composure early on in No. 5 Oklahoma's loss to Kansas State.

The Sooners only brought three scholarship cornerbacks to Manhattan, but starting in the second half they were down to one. The senior was kicked out of the game after kicking a Kansas State player, and sophomore Delarrin Tuner-Yell wasn't able to play in the second half due to an undisclosed injury.

"Obviously Motley lost his composure there on the sideline and there’s no room for it," Riley said. "It hurt our team."

Near the end of the game, Motley was lurking in the shadows of Oklahoma's tunnel in the all red sweat suit he wore to the game, hood flipped up to his eyes, unable to help his team.
