There’s a list of recruits to keep an eye on for Oklahoma on national signing day. One of those names to follow is class of 2022 defensive end and EDGE rusher R Mason Thomas.
Thomas is listed as a 6-foot-2, 215 pound prospect on 247Sports. He’s been committed to Iowa State since Jul. 6, 2021, but he received an offer from Oklahoma on Dec. 10 and took an official visit to OU on Jan. 21.
The Cardinal Gibbons High School product out of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., is teammates with fellow OU target and 2022 defensive lineman Ahmad Moten.
247Sports’ Parker Thune has had a crystal-ball prediction in for Thomas to sign with Oklahoma since Dec. 19. Now, a pair of On3 recruiting experts have flipped their predictions from Iowa State to Oklahoma for Thomas.
On3 senior recruiting editor Jeremy Crabtree and On3 director of recruiting Chad Simmons each flipped their predictions for Thomas to Oklahoma just ahead of national signing day.
