Per ESPN's Joe Schad, Oklahoma quarterback, Landry Jones, is set to return to Oklahoma for his senior year. Jones was consider a Top 10 draft prospect coming in to 2011, but dropped like a rock over the course of the 2011 season. Many experts and analyst felt as if Jones was not even a 1st round prospect by the end of his junior year, which culminated with an Insight Bowl win over Iowa. Oklahoma will be one of the favorites for the 2012 national title, along with USC where Matt Barkley also chose to return to college.

Jones returning to OU likely solidifies Texas A&M QB, Ryan Tannehill as the third best QB prospect in the 2012 draft.
