Metro Family Magazine has a story coming out this month about Kent Bradford and Tommy Griffin, fathers of our state’s sports royalty.

Their sons are well-known, of course. Kent’s son, Sam, is the Oklahoma quarterback who won the Heisman Trophy, and Tommy’s sons, Taylor and Blake, led the Sooner basketball team to the Elite Eight. Blake is expected to be the top pick in the NBA Draft later this month.

Here’s a link to a video of the two dads talking about fatherhood.

Consider it an early Father’s Day gift.
