The long wait maybe over.
There was strong buzz coming out of the Sooner Summit in Aug. that a big commitment from one of the best recruits in the country could be coming. Savion Byrd has since let off that and will announce his college choice four months later.
The four-star offensive tackle spent that weekend alongside Caleb Williams and a handful of other top Oklahoma targets. The Sooners have been the reported leaders for Byrd since, even with a visit weekend spent at LSU with LSU commitments.
Now, the highly touted recruit will make his college decision official on National Signing Day on Dec. 16, he announced last week.
I will announce my commitment and sign on national signing December 16. 💪🏾😈

Oklahoma made his final five on Nov. 13 alongside Texas, Auburn, LSU and SMU.
Byrd is considered the 84th best prospect in the 2021 recruiting class according to Rivals. He is the 15th best offensive tackle and 14th overall recruit in the 2021 recruiting class.
Five-star offensive guard target Bryce Foster announced last week, too, that he would be revealing his commitment on Dec. 18.
Oklahoma currently has 15 commitments in the 2021 recruiting class and has the 14th overall ranked recruiting class.
