Looking better as pass catcher Brooks focused on improving his pass-catching during the offseason and looked smooth doing it during Tulsa's first practice, Kelly Hines of the Tulsa World reports.

Impact Considering Brooks hauled in just nine passes last year and has only 17 total catches in his first three years on campus, an improvement in that facet of the game could allow him to remain on the field more often during his senior season. Brooks has done some serious damage on the ground despite his receiving woes, racking up 1,046 yards and six touchdowns on 227 carries (4.6 YPC) last season.
