Crimson Countdown: No. 24 Samuel Omosigho
The Crimson Countdown is officially on for the 2024 Oklahoma football season. Fans have been waiting for what feels like forever with this one. The Sooners are finally and officially joining the SEC.
The 2023 season was a rebound one for head coach Brent Venables, getting the program back to its standard. OU went 10-3 in Venables’ second season, now it’s time for year No. 3.
Every day as we get closer to kickoff, SoonerScoop.com will count down the days with you. Starting with No. 99 and working our way to No. 0, we’ll be there every step of the way.
Crimson Countdown: No. 24 Samuel Omosigho
2023 stats: Played in 10 games, primarily on special teams and in a backup linebacker role, collecting seven tackles and 0.5 tackles for loss.
2024 outlook: In short, the time has come for Samuel Omosigho following a spring in which the sophomore linebacker really started to carve out a role for himself. Versatile would be the phrase when talking about the 6-foot-2, 236-pound Crandall High School graduate. It’s expected Omosigho will be in the mix and have an opportunity to be a contributor this season, how much? That will be the big question heading into 2024.
2024 linebacker outlook:
The linebacker is stacked for the Sooners in 2024. Senior Danny Stutsman leads the way for Oklahoma, after he chose to stay one more year. Next to Stutsman are a host of guys, including Kip Lewis, Jaren Kanak and Kobie McKinzie, among others. All are fighting for playing time in 2024, including sophomores Lewis Carter and Samuel Omosigho, who were impressive in the spring and could start for Oklahoma next season. Dasan McCullough has also entered the mix, moving to inside linebacker
