our recruiting class is currently #22:francis:

We have such a hard time recruiting, despite all the great players and winning seasons we've had in the Stoops era.

What is the reason for that?

I don't know breh.

We've had good luck at turning 2-3 star recruits into great players. We get the occasional big recruit (Joe Mixon), but its never consistent.

Honestly, I think we've been good for so long that it kinda goes unnoticed. Like if you really suck for 3-4 years and suddenly get good again, ppl see you trending upwards

Plus location and playing in the big 12 is also a negative. Guarantee if we went to the Big 10 or Oac 12 wed have a top 10 or 15 class

You would think Oklahoma would be able to land a ton of elite players from Texas. I guess a lot of those guys are going to the SEC now.

I hope that's the case, really wish we could get defensive tackle and Juarez would recommit
Yeah, my main thing tho is just getting big & getting depth. If he wants to play like Stanford & Bama, he has to build them like Stanford & Bama.

As far as recruits i'm pretty sure we'll get some last minute commits depending on how many schollies we have, i haven't looked yet

Some of our best recruits the past several years have mostly been from Cali and out west. Kenny Stills, Tony Jefferson, Mixon, etc
