Maybe I misheard but at the beginning of Brandon‘s interview today he said he had no idea what the status was with Fasusi and it was still up in the air.  Later on, he said they would be happy to have players returning this week and I thought he mentioned Trell Harris, Fasusi , and one other player.

Of course he's going to play.

I thought he said except for Harris and Fasusi.

So your ears were muted again 

I hope Fasusi plays so he can see what it would have been like to go against Zina, Lance Jackson and of course, Collin Simmons in practice and really get developed.  
 

Sure he got playing time early, but the “first hit is free” strategy is also what supports Oklahoma’s meth industry, which is the second largest industry in Oklahoma just behind trailer home repossession.

I got hold of the earplugs you left at Dan Lanning's house after your summer swimming escapades.

I’m not getting any younger and too many years on the flight line and at rock concerts have done their damage. Lol

I was super surprised he said Trell Harris would be back only 4 weeks after suffering a lacerated liver.

Venerables is hardcore about this stuff.

He runs ridiculously physical practices and anyone who can play at all will play, no matter how banged up.

So I'd expect to see all of these injured guys, but that won't mean that they are 100%. He is the opposite of Sark on this front.

I hope the announcers call Fasusi Fasui again this year. 

FWIW:

 

Fasusi is listed as "doubtful" on Wednesday's availability report.

I’d still bet he plays

He will play until Boom lines Geffridge up opposite him.

Doesn't matter if he plays or not, he's not stopping the sacks coming.

That's like half their team on the injury list, sheesh. 

Sooner fans are saying Fasusi might not play the rest of the season and is probably portal bound.  I would love for him to pull a Livingstone and transfer over! Man that would be awesome.  Chances are slim to none, but it would be great theatre.
