Veteran kicker Seibert doesn’t report to camp

- OKLAHOMAN]

NORMAN — When the members of the Oklahoma football team reported to preseason camp Sunday, punter/kicker Austin Seibert wasn’t among them.

The Sooners opened camp Monday.

An academic issue with the university is part of the delay in Seibert’s arrival.

SoonerScoo­p.com first reported Seibert not being among the players who reported.

Seibert, who is expected to arrive at camp “soon,” was not enrolled at OU this summer and was therefore not allowed to participat­e in summer workouts.

He’s appeared in 26 career games, making 29 of 39 field goals and averaging 41.6 yards per punt.

Last Chance U reportedly filming season of JUCO commit

OU fans might get a more in-depth look at Tramonda Moore earlier than expected.

Before the offensive lineman arrives in Norman, he’ll play a final season at Independen­ce Community College, which is reportedly the focus of Last Chance U’s third season, according to the Garden City Telegram.

The Netflix series focused on East Mississipp­i Community College in Scooba, Mississipp­i, for the last two seasons.

After signing with Oklahoma State from John Marshall, Moore didn’t meet academic requiremen­ts to join the Cowboys after high school. Instead, he signed with Independen­ce and headed there to work on his associate degree.

He committed to OU in June and is on track to graduate with an associate degree in December.

By the time he’s expected to arrive in Norman, he’ll have traveled a long road to get there. With the filming of Last Chance U, there’s a chance that part of that will be available to watch before his first season at OU.
