Good to be back on the field

Bomar, Bearkats enthusiastic after first day of practice about upcoming season

Last year about this time, Rhett Bomar was scrambling to find a new school to continue his college football career.

After settling on Sam Houston State when he was dismissed from Oklahoma for NCAA rules violations, the sophomore quarterback was forced to sit out the season as part of his punishment. It was a long year for Bomar, and he wanted nothing more than to get back on the field and show what he could do.

But Sunday afternoon at Bowers Stadium, his wait finally came to an end. For the first time in two years, the junior began fall practice once again as a starting quarterback when the Bearkats took to the field.

“I’ve been looking forward to this for a long time. It’s been a long journey, and I’ve been here almost a year,” Bomar said after practice. “It went by fast, and I feel comfortable — excited about the season and excited about the group of guys we have. The season is less than a month away and it’s coming fast.”
