Oklahoma University will end a 51-year-old tradition this year by not brining The Sooner Caravan to Tulsa in 2019.

 “Since 1999, we have always had a major outreach program to connect with our fans and definitely expect that to continue,” OU director of athletics Joe Castiglione said. “However, like many programs around the country, we have experienced smaller attendance with the caravan concept in the past few years. Perhaps it’s because fans have more access to information and staff than ever before. Therefore, we’ve tried to ‘reimagine’ ways we can connect with fans.”

An estimated 350-400 fans attended in 2018.
