June 11, 2025 | Norman, OK — Baker Mayfield just dropped the mic — and then handed over the keys. The Oklahoma Sooners legend, NFL quarterback, and beloved Sooner icon made waves Tuesday with a surprise donation that sent shockwaves through college football: two state-of-the-art, custom-designed luxury buses gifted to the Oklahoma football program.
Dubbed by fans as “Sooner Chariots,” these elite motorcoaches are equipped with reclining leather seats, team-branded interiors, personalized entertainment systems, high-speed Wi-Fi, massage chairs, full catering setups, and even immersive VR film rooms. They’re the type of ride fit for a champion — and Baker made sure to deliver just that.
“These aren’t just buses,” Mayfield said during the unveiling at Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium. “They’re a symbol of where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re going. We built this legacy — let’s ride like it.”
The gift comes during a crucial era of transition for the Sooners, as they enter their first full season competing in the SEC. Mayfield’s donation not only boosts morale but sends a loud message: OU’s swagger is intact — and leveling up.
“Baker has always been about action, not just words,” said head coach Brent Venables. “He’s a warrior. This is about pride, grit, and giving back in a way only Baker could.”
The Sooners’ social media exploded with photos of the gleaming buses arriving on campus, escorted by a full police motorcade. Former teammates, current players, and fans lit up Twitter and Instagram with one word: Legend.
Mayfield, who won the Heisman Trophy in 2017 and etched his name forever into OU history, has long promised to reinvest in the program that launched his meteoric career. But even his most devoted fans weren’t expecting this bold of a gesture.
“These buses are insane. We feel like pros already,” said sophomore quarterback Jackson Arnold. “Baker’s still setting the tone.”
The estimated value of the donation? Over $2.5 million — but its impact on team spirit and recruiting momentum is likely priceless.
As the Sooners gear up for a new chapter in the SEC, they’ll do so riding in style — thanks to a true Sooner son who never stopped believing in the crimson and cream.
