Oklahoma has filed the paperwork with the NCAA for Dorial Green-Beckham’s appeal for immediate eligibility, CBSSports.com reported Tuesday afternoon.

School officials feel very confident about their chances to get the junior wide receiver eligible immediately with an NCAA waiver, sources told The Oklahoman recently.

The school filed the appeal after receiving additional documentation from Missouri.

According to sources, OU is using the “run-off” waiver to try to get Green-Beckham ruled immediately eligible. The waiver was created by the NCAA in recent years for players who were removed from programs for reasons beyond their control.
