Perhaps the greatest rivalry in college football is the Red River rivalry between the Texas Longhorns and Oklahoma Sooners. Its history gained an additional chapter on Thursday.
A player choosing to play for the opposing team during their career is not something that happens very often, but defensive lineman Jermayne Lole did just that when he declared he would be transferring from the Louisville Cardinals to the Texas Longhorns rather than the Oklahoma Sooners.
Even though Lole hasn’t practiced at Oklahoma yet, opponent teams rarely do something like this. Expected to add depth to Oklahoma’s interior defensive line, Lole chose to go elsewhere after the Sooners acquired Damonic Williams, regarded as the best interior defensive lineman in the portal.
He decided to go to Austin, Texas, further south as a result. In order to replace Byron Murphy and T’Vondre Sweat, who were both selected in this year’s NFL Draft with Murphy going in the first round, the Longhorns also required interior defensive line support.
A player with 141 tackles, 12.5 sacks, and 25 tackles for loss in his career will be joining the Longhorns. He has had some medical issues, but they were both related to his arms. One involved a triceps injury, the other an elbow one. Not a leg injury, but still not great.
The Longhorns needed to win this game, no matter how they did it, and they did, which only heightens their hopes of making the college football playoffs.
