Who's the Best #8

Sonny Brown - campus heartthrob (my ex had the hots for him - and darn near anyone else I fould out later) and DB during the mid 80s. Part of two big goal line stand against the Bugeaters in 1984 as the 6th ranked Sooners upset the top ranked Huskers. Also started on the National Championship team in 1985.
Chad Dainty - was on the 1996 roster. With that name, I can only imagine he transferred to a school in the WAC or Pac10.

Brandon Daniels - tremendous athlete burdened with playing quarterback in the Desert Era. Could do everything but pass the football. Played as a WR, DB and KR during Stoops first year. Led the team in receptions in 1999, and holds Sooner record for most KR yards in a game and season.

Nate Hybl - starting QB in 2001 and 2002. Has 20-3 W/L record during his tenure. Was pulled for White, then replaced White when Jason blew knee out. 4th most career passing yards in Sooner history.

Garrick McGee - highly touted Juco transfer was Sooner QB during Gibbs last year (1994). A victim of the coaching genius of Schnellenberger in 1995, he saw limited playing time his senior year.

Donte Nicholson - juco transfer DB in 03-04. Earned All Big 12 honors in Sr year.

Jerry Parks - infamous in Sooner lore for shooting teammate Zarak Peters in early 1989. There is some debate amongst Sooner historians over what is more shocking in about this event: a) that a player shot another; b) that he was kicked off the team for doing so.

Darrell Shepard - starting QB in 1981, scored 15 rushing TDs for the Sooners that year.
