The unseen side of Jalen Hurts: The moments and speeches that have defined his OU career ahead of the College Football Playoff semifinal ATLANTA — Thursday morning in Atlanta was likely Jalen Hurts’ least favorite part of his and Oklahoma’s trip to the Peach Bowl to face No. 1 LSU in the College

As Jalen Hurts closes in on a SB ring, a look back on his time in Norman: “Who are we? We are a reflection of our campus. People look to us as role models being student-athletes, especially football players ... You go to class, you take your hood off, you pay attention ... Let’s set a standard.”

OU Daily earns national college media advertising honors Two OU Daily students earned honors in the annual College Media Business and Advertising Managers national advertising competition in November.

Our team talks constantly about serving community while building careers. Nice to see both of those concepts celebrated in @oudaily.bsky.social campaigns that have now earned national honors.

One last time this season, @oudaily.bsky.social has our billboard running along Interstate 35 to catch the OU-Alabama crowds headed to Norman for the Sooners' 2024 home finale.

Local Boy!

A video explainer/lecture/reflection on the media and 2024 election I’ve not tried this before, but after a week of teaching in the aftermath of the 2024 U.S.

Cut a video that repurposes this week's lecture and discussion material into something like a public-facing explainer about the media story of this election. But there are other things too. It's long. I don't expect many will want this, and that's fine. Think of it as a class session.
