After holding back during the early signing period, the Oklahoma Sooners finally got a coveted signature from the No. 1 player in the state of Oklahoma, Gentry Williams.
Williams, who is rated the No. 1 prospect in Oklahoma by 247Sports and On3 Recruiting composite rankings. is a two-way player who projects to play defensive back for the Oklahoma Sooners. He’ll join 2022 signees and fellow Tulsa-area Sooners Jayden Rowe and Robert Spears-Jennings in the Oklahoma defensive backfield.
It’s a big win for Brent Venables and coaches Jay Valai and Brandon Hall that they were able to close the recruitment on Williams who was also being recruited by LSU, Florida, and USC.
