The Oklahoma Sooners have had their fair share of quality quarterback play over the years. That play has earned All-American awards and four Heisman trophies over the years.
Oklahoma’s had success in its history with a varied array of offensive styles and quarterback play. And that shows up when you look at the Sooners’ all-time leaders in career passing yards. Sure you’ve got Landry Jones and Baker Mayfield who threw for more than 10,000 yards in their career with the Sooners. Then you have a player Jamelle Holieway who is top 20 in both career passing yards and career rushing yards. Holieway and Jack Mildren had more rushing touchdowns in their career than they did passing touchdowns.
There is one quarterback inside the top ten all-time in career passing yards that didn’t play in the last 20 years and that guy is still with the Oklahoma Sooners: wide receivers coach Cale Gundy. Gundy is No. 6 in career passing yards. Makes you wonder what kind of damage he could have done…
