The Oklahoma Sooners have seen some success as of late with the NCAA’s transfer portal. The team added three players from the University of Tennessee alone, the latest being running back Eric Gray. There is always a flip side to that coin with players leaving.
Recent reports state that Oklahoma Sooners defensive back Brendan Radley-Hiles has put his name in the transfer portal. The four-star cornerback and top 40 player from the 2018 class will look to leave Norman and finish out his playing career elsewhere. It isn’t a done deal that he will be leaving as he can pull his name out at any time.

Radley-Hiles has been a three-year starter for the Sooners defense. He played in 38 games, while starting 24 games for Oklahoma. Sooners Wire projected Radley-Hiles to be the starting nickel back heading into spring football. That could be in question now with him entering the portal.
Jeremiah Criddell or Pat Fields could be the next Sooner defender in line to play in the nickel or even Woodi Washington next season. Sooners Wire will update the story as more information becomes available.
