At least it’s no another arrest, right? Baby steps, y’all.
A spate of off-field incidents at Oklahoma this offseason has given way to some personnel news, with Bob Stoops confirming Thursday that two cornerbacks, P.J. Mbanasor and Antoine Stephens, have decided to transfer out of the head coach’s program. "[They] are guys that want to try and find something different. That’s all I know at this point,” Stoops said.
No specific reasons for the departures were given, although being passed on the depth chart would likely be a good place to start.
A four-star member of the Sooners’ 2015 recruiting class, Mbanasor was rated as the No. 19 corner in the country; the No. 17 player at any position in the state of Texas; and the No. 132 player on 247Sports.com’s composite board. After playing in 10 games with two starts as a true freshman, Mbanasor took a redshirt for the 2016 season.
Stephens was a three-star member of the same class who didn’t play a down for the Sooners.
