I've also seen where Tawee Walker is practicing and working out with the team for the bowl....even though he's in the portal. Not sure how that works. I can see guys leaving for the nfl playing in the bowl, but I thought if you hit the portal you were done.....anyway gives us a little depth there if he can play...

NCAA will allow players in the Portal and those declaring for the NFL to practice and participate in the Bowl game and continue to have access to facilities, with the Administration's approval. At OU, I think it's done on a case by case basis.TropicalSooner wrote: ↑Wed Dec 13, 2023 8:54 am I've also seen where Tawee Walker is practicing and working out with the team for the bowl....even though he's in the portal.

I know that Michael Turk was allowed use the facilities all the way up until he moved to Miami for his NFL workouts. Not the same situation, but for illustration, the OU staff cleaned out Danny Stutsman's locker and revoked his access to the facilities when he missed the first Alamo Bowl practice after declaring for the NFL. He was able to get it all back of course.

I can see a case where Walker didn't really want to leave.....he just wanted a scholly somewhere.
I'm glad the coaches are letting prepare with the team for the bowl game.
Whole different deal than some others.
