Tom in Miami asks: I know things went well for Mike Mitchell on his visit. How close are we to getting him at this point?
Bob Przybylo: No doubt it was a good weekend for OU and four-star linebacker Mike Mitchell (Plano, Texas/Prestonwood Christian). But I wouldn’t say the Sooners are close to getting his verbal at this point. It’s all about context. What last weekend did was put OU in the conversation, which is where it wasn’t at this point two weeks ago. Just because Tim Kish made a good impression on Mitchell doesn’t mean the same hasn’t occurred at other schools.
