NORMAN, Okla. --Throughout the season when we've sat down with Adrian Taylor for his weekly video journal, he's made it a point to mention his teammates, sometimes even inviting a few of them on the set.
This week, we surprised Adrian when we told him we wouldn't be shooting his usual segment.
Instead, we talked to a number of his teammates and had them share their thoughts on the type of person Adrian is both on and off the field.
From his reputation as a jokester... to his love for music and video games... to his work ethic on the field and how he makes everyone around him better, Taylor's teammates had nothing but high praise.
Oklahoma travels to Lubbock this week to take on Texas Tech.
The Sooners and Red Raiders are set to kick off at 11:30 a.m. (CT) Saturday and can be seen live on FSN. For complete coverage throughout the week and broadcast options for fans following the Sooners from around the world, visit Sooner Gameday Central.
Each week throughout the 2009 football season, Taylor takes time to give Sooner fans some insight into his life both in and away from football.
Stay tuned throughout the year as he represents the Oklahoma defense for our 2009 video series. Norman's own Mossis Madu has the same duties for the offense.
Taylor also welcomes questions from Sooner fans. Email us your questions and we'll pick the best to ask on video. Please include "Adrian Taylor" in the subject line.
