The Sooners are going to have a rougher go of it this year than they had expected. Sam Bradford, the team’s quarterback, will be having season-ending shoulder surgery, it has been announced, and for many Oklahoma fans, it will feel like the end of the season for them as well. Bradford is a major center of control on this team and his loss is big. We will be watching this afternoon when he does his press conference letting us know of his plans. He will have the surgery, yes, but what next? Will he want to push towards the NFL or will be even be able to? He’ll be ok, but will he be able to get back into football. The coaches aren’t willing to speak for him, but the way they’re talking about “his plans”, it sounds like a touchy situation, at the very least.
