A Look at Changes to OSU Football Roster Since Spring Practice

Roster turnover is something the coaching staff has to deal with ever year. This year’s official roster has been released ahead of fall camp. There were some noteworthy additions and a few names who took part in spring ball missing from the official list.

Here’s a look at the apparent departures based on OSU’s roster.

Name	Number	Position
Winston Westbrooks	27	Safety
Mitchell Perkinson	30	Wide Receiver
Jakeem Johnson	35	Running Back
Reshawn Parker	46	Linebacker
Brian Ciszewski	47	Linebacker
Obi Obialo	88	Wide Receiver

Obialo announced his transfer from the program earlier this year. No official word on running back Jakeem Johnson but with the influx of talent and the competition that already existed on the roster, Johnson would find it an uphill battle see the field. He contributed on the scout team the last two seasons.

There were also several additions to the roster since the spring, most we already knew about. For a breakdown of number changes, we’ve got you covered as well.

Here are the new names on the roster since spring ball. Note this does not include names like Jelani Woods and Patrick Macon who enrolled in the spring and have been with the team since then.

Name	Number	Position
Tracin Wallace	4	Quarterback
Adrian Baker	6	Cornerback
Braydon Johnson	8	Wide Receiver
Malcolm Rodriguez	20	Safety
Trey Sterling	23	Defensive Back
J.D. King	27	Running Back
Thabo Mwaniki	28	Safety
Chuba Hubbard	30	Running Back
Kris McCune	32	Safety
Jake McClure	39	Kicker
Brock Martin	40	Defensive End
Sione Finefeuiaki	42	Cowboy back
Enoch Smith Jr.	56	Defensive Tackle
Larry Joubert	74	Offensive Line
Aaron Cochran	78	Offensive Line
Tylan Wallace	80	Wide Receiver
LC Greenwood	81	Wide Receiver
Baron Odom	86	Cowboy Back
Brendon Evers	98	Offensive Lineman

The big names are there. Incoming freshmen like Chuba Hubbard and Tylan Wallace have already been penciled in as future stars by many. Then there are transfers like Adrian Baker and Aaron Cochran who look to make an immediate impact to OSU’s potential Big 12 title run in 2017.

Larry Joubert was the final addition to this year’s class. He adds more depth to the offensive line by way of Northeastern Oklahoma A&M and will probably play at either guard position.
