Mottern is in position to ##11 to take over the No. 1 role this season left by Daniel McCutchen.

“Ryan and Jimmy (Rollins) both have the arm strength which makes them capable of Jimmy Rollins - LHP controlling a game like Daniel McCutchen did in 2006,” said Golloway about the No. 1 ##22 (OU Career: 11 apps, 0-0, 8.31 ERA) and No. 2 projected starters in the 2007 rotation. “Ryan had a strong showing during the summer in Alaska and that success carried over into fall practice. The coaching staff has confi dence in him to be a team leader on and off the mound this season.” Joseph Hughes - LHP Rollins, a left-handed senior, is another hurler who competed well in the fall but unlike ##33 (OU Career: 12 apps, 0-0, 4.86 ERA) Mottern, he has limited experience on the Sooners’ mound.

“Jimmy really came on strong near the end of last season and the coaching staff was Nich Conaway looking for him to step up and pitch strongly in the fall, and he did just that,” said (OU Career: 9 apps., 0-0, 7.20 ERA) Golloway. “One of his weaknesses (in the fall) was losing focus throughout the course of RRHPHP a six or seven-inning outing and that is something Jimmy will continue to improve as he Andrew Doyle - freshman makes the transition from the bullpen to the starting rotation.” Danny Grande - freshman Antwonie Hubbard - freshman Senior Joseph Hughes (LHP), junior Brad Burns (RHP) and sophomore Stephen Porlier (RHP) will compete for the third and fourth starting spots in the OU rotation. Hughes, who also started for OU in centerfi eld a year ago, made 12 appearances last season in Chris Henry relief and fi nished the fall as the favorite to become the Sunday starter. Burns is the LLHPHP (OU Career: 3 apps., 0-0, 0.00 ERA) only other pitcher on the staff, besides Mottern, with starting experience (13 games in 2005 and two in 2006), while Porlier comes to Norman after making 17 appearances (12 Zach Sawyer - junior college transfer starts) at Tulane where he posted a 7-5 mark in 2006 as a freshman.

OKLAHOMA REMEMBERS GAUTT Prentice Gautt ushered in a new era for Oklahoma football when he landed a spot on the 1956 team. Former Sooner head coach Bud Wilkinson was pressured against giving Gautt a scholarship. A group of black doctors and pharmacists gave money for Gautt to attend the school. Within a year, Gautt was given a scholarship and the do- nated amounts were given to another black student.

Gautt, considered Oklahoma’s best player in 1958, was a two-time All-Big Eight player and 1959 Orange Bowl MVP. During his senior year, Gautt was named to the academic All-America team and eventually earned master’s and doctorate degrees in psychol- ogy.

The academic center for student-athletes at the University of Oklahoma was named in Gautt’s honor in 1999. A special assistant to the commissioner of the Big 12 Confer- ence, Gautt passed away on March 17, 2005.

“His personal example of quiet courage, grace under pressure, and dedication to the university helped open the doors of opportunity for countless numbers of African- Americans and minority student-athletes who have followed him into collegiate athletics,’’ said University of Oklahoma president David Boren.
