Breakout player of 08

Marlon Lucky

With a very dangerous and deep O line who will hopefully have better blocking technique and with Lucky being a more aggressive runner and a year better, I'm going to say that he'll eclipse 1,000 rushing yards quite easily and might even get to 1,000 receiving too. We'll see. But I think he's poised for a big year.

 
Look no further than Ricky Thenarse.

The guy has mad skills, and he's going to play all season with a huge chip on his shoulder for being on the bench last year.

Rickey Thenarse is going to bust on the scene for everyone to see... Rickey just flys around the field waiting to blow the play up.

I remember when he blew that returner up against Okie St two times in a row in a game where no one else on our team could do anything! The next game against A&M they had 2 guys blocking Rickey off the line and they were just tackling him which the refs must not have seen, but they had to gameplan just to stop a guy on kickoff coverage...

Now as far as National attention I think Lucky will get noticed as a top back next year

 
I like to see several players have breakout years, including Phillip Dillard. I wonder if he and Bo had a heart to heart talk over Dillard's recruiting visit at OU. You would think Bo must had dealt with that right away. Learning more about Bo's character -- and I have been impressed -- I give him the benefit of the doubt and consider the strong possibility that is was one big misunderstanding.
