The statue, however, doesn’t really look like the 2017 Heisman Trophy winner. Some of the social media responses to photos of the statue suggested it looks more like Robert Patrick in “Terminator 2,” Glenn Howerton’s “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” character Dennis Reynolds and others. Cristiano Ronaldo was also frequently brought up as a memorable statue fail.

I wonder if the guy who sculpted the Baker Mayfield statue just had a torn labrum in his shoulder, but insisted on chiseling anyway. pic.twitter.com/iAnAJhL5Bz

It’s pretty cool how Oklahoma chose to honor Baker Mayfield’s Heisman season with a statue of Robert Patrick, playing the role T-1000 in Terminator 2.
He almost got the job done as well but couldn’t quite seal it either. pic.twitter.com/vBFzIV6cZh

Mayfield started his college career at Texas Tech before transferring to Oklahoma, where he played from 2014-to-2017. In his final season with the Sooners, he won numerous awards, including the Heisman Trophy, leading OU to a Big 12 Championship and College Football Playoff appearance.
