OU Athletics
NORMAN Oklahoma has drawn rave reviews in recent years for its ability to uniquely promote and elevate the brand of its student-athletes. Some of the most visible athletes on the national scene, people like
Kyler Murray, Blake Griffin, Maggie Nichols, Baker Mayfield and Sydney Romero, saw their meteoric rise begin in Norman.
Now, OU is prepared to put those powerful resources behind the new opportunities that await student-athletes in anticipation of potential new NCAA legislation that pertains to name, image and likeness. A vote on that measure is expected in January and implementation could begin in August of 2021.
