Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones has won the Sammy Baugh Award as college football's top passer. The honor is presented annually by The Touchdown Club of Columbus (Ohio).
Jones, a sophomore from Artesia, N.M., led the Sooners to their seventh Big 12 Championship while passing for 4,239 yards and 35 touchdowns. He completed 65.3% of his passes and threw just 11 interceptions while facing three of the top 15 teams among the NCAA's pass efficiency defense leaders.
Hopefully this is a sign of for things to come for him. Congratulations Landry on a fine year and go play a great game against UConn!

Yay for Landry!
I know we tend to pick on him a lot, but I do think we really want him to succeed (okay, maybe not my husband). If he can learn to make less monumental mistakes then he should become another great quarterback in the OU lineage. Heupel is creating a legacy here. With this kind of pedigree, it shouldn’t be difficult to get the top QB recruits here at OU.
maybe someday we will be called QuarterbackU

Solid quarterback, to say the least...
Landry is a good kid and ultimately its not his fault that he has to overcome our insanely high expectations just because we were spoiled with Josh, Jason, and Sam. Compare Landry to anyone in the nation (to include Scam Newton) and he’s up there with anybody then realize he’s only a soph!
Have they announced whether he would....
accept the trophy in person? I live just outside of Columbus, OH. I’d go just to show him a little Sooner love up here in the great white north.
