Blake has always been one of my favs!!!

[@Boomer_Sooner]

I really enjoyed this interview with the Belldozer! So awesome! Thanks!

[@perryanderson5642]

Blake Bell, Thanks for your kindness and Signing my OKLAHOMA SOONERS Game Day Program when you were Playing at OU. A couple of Favorites for me- The 51-48 OKLAHOMA WIN Over Osu in Norman when you tied the Game on 4th Down to send it to Overtime. And Thank You for Beating ND 33-17 on the Road for Oklahoma in 2013 as Quarterback. Amazing Careers for You and Coach Stoops! Those were Great Days and Escapes for me in Norman and Swimming at Turner Falls inbetween. God Bless You both 🙏. Perry C Anderson, Lake Granbury, Tx.

Blake without a doubt mine and my wife is our favorite all time OU football player. Best team player ever. Thanks for all the wonderful memories Blake. Bob and Rita Jones OKC

[@jaredwolfe4042]

I absolutely love these. Love them.

[@dbtoney1]

Coach would love to hear you interview Sherrone Moore, very cool he got the Michigan job...he was impressive this past season. Your coaching influence has had a big positive effect on so many

[@keithphillips8055]

No disrespect to Trevor Knight but I continue to believe OU would have won more games in 2014 if Blake remained the starting QB rather than moving to TE. I’m delighted to see the move to TE has worked out well for him.

[@mitchconner2021]

Ehh Trevor was a better QB he just dealt with injuries that season and the fact that Baker was sitting out that year I think everyone knew Bake would eventually get the job so I think Knight was trying to do too much to keep the job. Bell wouldn't have had the NFL career he's had if he stayed at QB

54 yr Sooner that win again o state was one of the best,Good Luck !!!!

[@catherinelee3298]

Blake is fantastic. ❤🏈

[@ryanpalmer7854]

Always cool to see Stoops interview former Sooners! I’ve also got a picture with the Belldozer and his autograph! Hell ya! I’ve still got that article winning Bedlam!

[@Ok-Mardy]

Blake Bell is the Man!

[@richardstones6445]

I was today years old before I knew that the Belldozer was the nephew of super-Chief, the great Mike Bell. Wow... Live and learn! I know how much all you Sooners love Coach Stoops, but whenever I see him, he looks like a Kansas State Wildcat D-Coordinator kick'n butt in the newly formed Big12 and helping Coach Snyder build the Wildcats into a competitive team. God bless you coach.

[@dbtoney1]

Turkey Legs Flying! Loved that 13 game vs Choke State

[@jcarver69]

I remember the video of him blowing up a D-End in a 1 on 1 drill the Summer he switched to TE. Everybody was all excited cheering he ain't a QB no more.

[@leeann_ousooner_girl]

Boomer Sooner! Blake Bell❤🤍

[@joecharles5368]
