Mustangs' QB Battle Heats Up
The Oologah-Talala Mustangs are battling triple-digit heat in their early padded practices ahead of a week-one season opener. Head Coach Sam Noble praised his young roster's maturity, noting they are already ahead of last year's schedule. With their base offense and defense installed, the coaching staff's primary focus remains on alignment, assignment, and technique leading into their upcoming scrimmages.
The main preseason storyline is the quarterback competition between sophomore Brock and freshman Easton. Coach Noble highlighted their mutual support and high-level play, explaining that a starter won't be named until after scrimmages against Jay and Verdigris. Because both athletes are dynamic playmakers, Noble expects both to see Friday night action, with the runner-up likely shifting to receiver to utilize their running and catching skills.
