Oklahoma HC Skip Johnson on what the last month has been like for this team and the constant prayer internally & externally. Wow.
“It's like LJ (Mercurius) just said a minute ago, it was really a God thing…there's a lot of people out there praying for us. Every day I get texts about, ‘hey, man, we're praying for you guys.’ It's really a God thing. It really is. And it's amazing. I mean, he took that game over tonight.”
“I was sitting there praying for Kyle every at-bat. I'm like, Jesus, let him take over. He's an unbelievable kid. And those kids are really selfless. I mean, they're really selfless.
And it was amazing how they came together and started caring a lot about each other.” — @CoachJohnsonOU
"He's a goofy leader but he loves the game, he loves us... getting it for him, it's just amazing."
The one thing all OU players agreed about after winning the third title in Sooner baseball history... their pride to do it for Skip Johnson. #BoomerSooner@NEWS9

Oklahoma HC Skip Johnson on how he’s evolved since the #Sooners’ 2022 championship series:
“I think I’m the same guy. I still dip snuff; I still hunt deer.”
If you’re visiting for a very large sporting event & you happen to discover RANCH while you’re here… pls pack it in your CHECKED BAG on the way home.
Thank you.
Oklahoma has advanced to the College World Series Final for the 2nd time since 2022.
The Sooners have the most CWS final appearances IN THE COUNTRY over this timeframe.
They are the last team standing from THE BEST conference IN THE COUNTRY.
Skip Johnson's message to Oklahoma fans ahead of the College World Series Finals:
"Have the whole state that are Sooners to come up here."
"It's bigger than us. It really is. It's really about our state. It's really about being an OU Sooner. It's about all those details, being thankful, the president was here. We had Barry Switzer here. We had Bob Stoops, Jennie Baranczyk -- Trish, Toby Keith's wife was here. I hadn't seen her in a long time. And it brings tears to my eyes. And Josie and Roger Denny, I mean, John Mateer, our quarterback. I mean that's what's being an OU Sooner is about. It's about being a family. And the more those people can get up here and get it going, the better it is."
