    Gabe Ikard and Teddy Lehman preview OU football training camp by giving their top 3 questions for the Sooners as they begin fall camp! Lehman's top 3 questions are: 1. Will all the work John Mateer put in during the offseason pay off? 2. Will the depth develop in the interior of the Sooners defensive line? 3. Will a someone merge as a serious DUDE at running back? Ikard's top 3 questions are: 1. Can 12 personnel (1 running back, 2 tight ends) be a weapon for Ben Arbuckle's offense? 2. Has PJ Adebawore taking a leap? 3. Can Isaiah Sategna be a true #1 wide receiver? They also discuss a federal court in Denver ruling that all high school class of 2022 athletes who exhausted their 4th year of eligibility this last fall or spring are eligible for another season with the NCAA’s new 5 for 5 rule. The NCAA will appeal the ruling but it's possible that Oklahoma could get another season of Jaren Kanak and Damonic Williams.
