Two worlds of Oklahoma football collided on Thursday. Former quarterback Baker Mayfield got a workout in with a top wide receiver recruit.

Two worlds of Oklahoma football collided on Thursday.

Former Oklahoma quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Baker Mayfield is apparently back home in Austin, Texas, and decided to get a workout in at his old high school.

Joining him at Lake Travis High School was Austin area native and Del Valle High School prospect Caleb Burton. The top class of 2022 wide receiver is ranked as the No. 37 best recruit in his class, and has an offer from Lincoln Riley and Oklahoma.

Burton has visited Oklahoma before, including a trip to Norman for the ChampU BBQ recruiting event the Sooners put on every late July.

This was a pretty star-studded workout with Ohio State freshman phenom wide receiver Garrett Wilson, former Baylor quarterback Charlie Brewer and current Detroit Lions receiver Danny Amendola in attendance.

“Baker had nothing but love for OU,” Burton told 247 recruiting director Steve Wiltfong. “He said positive stuff about them and me and Garret chatted about Ohio State for a second. Just how it is what I thought of Coach (Brian) Hartline and stuff like that. I know me and him will be talking more through the recruiting process!”

Oklahoma, like the rest of college football, is in a dead period for recruiting with zero face-to-face contact. The Sooners can still make contact with recruits on the phone.
