High-profile coaches on hand to watch DGB
According to multiple sources, Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops and offensive coordinator Jay Norvell and Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino all were in attendance watching five-star receiver Dorial Green-Beckham (Springfield, Mo./Hillcrest) chase history Friday.
Green-Beckham, perhaps the most-wanted high school athlete in the country, entered Friday’s game against West Plains (Mo.) needing only 369 receiving yards to catch the career yards record of 5,867 set by Abram Booty (Shreveport, La./Evangel Christian) in 1996.
