A product of Kingfisher High School, linebacker Curtis Lofton exploded on the scene during the 2007 season recording 157 total tackles and (10.5 for loss), 3 interceptions, and caused four fumbles. The Football Writers Association of America, Sporting News, and Sports Illustrated all named him as a First Team All-American and the AP had him as a Second Team All-American. Against Missouri, that season, he recorded 18 tackles and scored a touchdown off a fumble recovery.
The following spring Lofton was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the second round of the NFL Draft. He currently plays for the Oakland Raiders after spending the last three seasons with the New Orleans Saints.
