Who To Watch

The Guy Behind the Guy Who is he: Tracey Norwood Where he plays: Westmoore Here's the details: 5-10, 195, Sr. What he plays: Quarterback Why you'll know his name in 2007: For the past two seasons, Norwood has been behind quarterback Ryan Fightmaster. This season, he'll finally get his chance. The senior is receiving interest from Texas tech, Rice, Kansas State, Kansas, SMU and Wyoming. "I was just hoping to play as a sophomore,'' Norwood said. "Now I'm ready.'' Most Likely to Succeed Who is he: Aaron Kelley Where he plays: Putnam City Here's the details: 5-10, 280, Sr. What he plays: Defensive tackle Why you'll know his name in 2007: A quick, explosive player and a difference-maker on defense, Kelley will go from being un-noticed to demanding a double-team. But more importantly, he's well-liked by his team and his coaches. "He's highly regarded by our team as a leader,'' said coach Mark Little. "The linemen go un-noticed a lot of the time, but he's a great player who deserves some recognition. We're fortunate to have him and I'm fortunate enough to be able to be around him.'' My Brothers Keeper Who is he: Jacques Washington Where he plays: Owasso Here's the details: 6-foot, 180, Junior What he plays: Running back Why you'll know his name in 2007: Jacques is the younger brother to King Jack Washington, which is why he's a sleeper this season. This running back/wide receiver has the speed of his older brother and at 6-foot and 180 pounds, he might carry a bigger punch. Only a junior, Washington has a couple of years to fill the shoes left behind by King Jack, but if pre-season football is any type of gauge, Jacques will have no problem stepping into those cleats. The Next Generation Who is he: David Cole Where he plays: McAlester Here's the details: 6-3, 215, Senior What he plays: Wide Receiver Why you'll know his name in 2007: You want power at the wide receiver position, then look no further than David Cole. His size and hands will make him a highly sought after commodity. He can also play linebacker on defense or even corner back. Cole is very versatile when it comes to where he can play on the field. Tight end is yet another option the Buffalos have with Cole.
