Beal should have every opportunity to take the place of former Sooner linebacker, Eric Striker. Beal will have 3 years to play 2, meaning that a redshirt would also be an option. He is the third class of 2016 Sooners commitment from Lackawanna Community College in Scranton, Pennsylvania

Check out Emmanuel Beal's film below and you will notice he has a great first step and has the ability to be a really good pass rusher.
