NORMAN, Okla. Whether hes on the friendly confines of Owen Field, a neutral madhouse like the Cotton Bowl or on the road at Bill Snyder Family Stadium, Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley might be the safest man in America on any given fall Saturday.Thats because when its gameday, Rileys bodyguard is Brian Orr.Orr, 45, is the Oklahoma Highway Patrolmana signed to protect the Sooners football coach. Hes 6-2, 240 pounds of muscle on muscle, a brawny and brave sentinel with an eagle eye and razor wit, a former small college linebacker who patrols rural byways and Sooner sidelines with equal square-jawed seriousne s.When Riley shakes hands with Matt Campbell or Tom Herman or Bill Snyder or if Riley should ever come acro s an unruly fan Orr cuts an imposing figure over the coachs shoulder.Hes funny, Riley says of Orr, but you can see when he kind of clicks into that mode, too: When its busine s time, hes all busine s.Orr isn't alone in his duties; he's actually just the most prominent member of the security detail a signed to Riley. Although le s visible than Orr, the man in charge of coordinating Rileys safety and Maurkice Pouncey Jersey for the previous 11 years, the safety of Bob Stoops is University of Oklahoma Police Department Master Sgt. Steve Chandler. Orr jokes that Chandler is the brains of the outfit, while hes the brawn.In 2005, Orr was asked by his then-captain if he wanted to join the Sooner security squad. His a signment that year was to safeguard the opposing team to and from the airport, and to accompany them on Alejandro Villanueva Jersey gameday.But in 2006, Stoops own detail had an opening, and he chose Orr to be at his side.Orr first declined the offer because, growing up in Okemah, Okla., (population 3,239), he was an Oklahoma State fan. He wanted no conflicts of interest. But Stoops met with Orr twice and eventually talked him into it. Orr guarded Stoops during every college football Saturday for 11 years.And now, he protects Riley.Theres a lot of troopers that are OU fans. A lot of Troopers would like to have that job. I was ble sed to get this job, Orr said. Pretty neat deal. Pretty ble sed to be able to do this a signment.Work dayIts 6:30 a.m. on the Friday before Oklahomas home game against Iowa State, and the sun hasnt come up yet on Orrs eight-acre ranch, just south of Interstate 40 near Shawnee. One of his four cows sounds quite concerned about her breakfast as Orr returns from taking his girls to school.Today, Orr is giving a media ride-along, and after a quick briefing on what to do in an emergency this button releases the AR-15 (semi-automatic rifle) in the back seat, heres how to chamber a round, heres the safety, dont hit your head on the in-car camera Orr is ready to begin his patrol.Lets go chase bad guys, he says.Orr is kidding, but only a little. His primary job with the OHP is checking out commercial motor vehicles (CMV), a technical term for 18-wheelers. Bad guys dont tootle around in big rigs.Unle s they do.Being a Trooper is very, very exciting work just because you dont know whats going to happen every day, Orr said. You hear that terminology a lot routine stop theres no such thing as a routine stop out here. You never know what youre Mike Mitchell Jersey going to walk up on on a vehicle, on a semi, on a crash. So youve always got to be prepared. So thats one of the many things I like about this job, the uncertainty of it.Orr has a degree in criminal justice from the University of Central Oklahoma, where he played linebacker after an All-State high school career at Okemah High School. He broke into law enforcement with the Okemah Police Department, spending five years in Moore, a growing suburb between Oklahoma City and Norman.Then he applied for the OHP Academy, a grueling, 20-week boot camp weedingout all but the best of the best. How tough is it? Initial training with the U.S. Marines lasts 13 weeks. Other branches range from 6-10 weeks.Orr graduated top cadet with high marks in defensive driving, physical fitne s, academics, defensive tactics and marksmanship. That was in 2002, the 54th OHP Academy. One of his littermates in the Hard Core 54 was John Vincent, who now protects Oklahoma State coach Mike Gundy.Orr worked in the Public Information Office and patrolled the interstates, was promoted to lieutenant in 2013 and recently took his captains test. But his real calling, Orr said, is driving Oklahomas smaller roads. And every day, someone recognizes him.Those postgame shots of the coaches handshake at midfield? For 12 years now, Orr has been in the background. So hell often spend a few minutes talking Sooner football with a trucker he has pulled over.Thats good publicity for the Patrol, Orr said. If it Dermontti Dawson Jersey makes the Patrol look good, thats what we want.GamedayIts 8 a.m. and the Sooners, who kick off against the Cyclones in three hours, are eating breakfast at the team hotel. Outside, Orr and his caravan-mates in the police escort Chandler and OHP Lt. Mike Roe are eyeing over the Bentley Coupe of football operations director Matt McMillen. Players begin to trickle out onto the two buses, and the police escort quickly saddles up in three separate vehicles.On Oklahoma State Highway 9, just south of Norman, traffic has begun to congeal. Four stoplights separate the team hotel and Jenkins Avenue, but the Sooners stop at none. With both lanes jammed, the escort navigates the 4 1/2-mile route with surgical precision. Lights are on, sirens are wailing, Heath Miller Jersey and when the traffic cant move, Orr and the others scoot through turn lanes or over the shoulder.Some drivers move, some dont. But the caravan never stops.
