Oklahoma notched a commitment from one of the top quarterbacks in the 2023 class in four-star Jackson Arnold out of Denton Guyer in Texas.
The Sooners already have one skill player committed in the 2023 class in four-star wide receiver DeAndre Moore Jr. Now, OU is zeroing in on another skill piece they’d like to add.
Oklahoma offered consensus four-star athlete Mikal Harrison-Pilot. The 6-foot, 190 pound class of 2023 product has been a three-sport athlete at Temple High School in Texas.
