Heading into 2024, all eyes are on the Oklahoma Sooners and first-year starting quarterback, Jackson Arnold. Arnold, the former five-star prospect will be leading the Sooners into the deep waters of the SEC.
One of the best quarterbacks in the 2023 recruiting class and the first commit of the cycle under Brent Venables, Arnold has all the tools to be a success for the Sooners. Quarterbacking OU brings a ton of attention, and Arnold is already on national award radars. On Monday, he was named to the Maxwell Award watch list.
The Maxwell Award is given annually to the nation’s best all around player.
McDonald led the Sooners to an undefeated season and the top offense in the nation, scoring 45.1 points per game. He ran for 852 yards and 12 touchdowns, caught 12 passes for 282 yards and four touchdowns and threw for 183 yards and three touchdowns. Mayfield and the Sooners finished third in the nation in his Heisman winning season in 2017. White and the Sooners scored 34 points per game in 2004 en route to a 12-1 season, coming up short in the BCS Championship game against USC.
