I appreciate all the kids who come up and enjoy my play at OU. But everybody giving me their opinions is where I draw the line. If it’s someone who hasn’t been there before, I really can’t handle it.

If you can grab a ball and throw it, you can grab a ball and throw it. I don’t care how tall you are, either. I’m not gonna see over a 6-foot-7 left tackle. You’ve gotta find lanes; you’ve gotta know where your guys are. It’s not about the height: if you can win ball games, you can win ’em. Baker Mayfield Read Quote
There’s always instances where you want those throws back, but the worst part about it is that I can’t redo it. Baker Mayfield Read Quote
