As the spring progresses, the Oklahoma Sooners continue to build positive momentum in the 2024 recruiting cycle. On Thursday, five-star cornerback Kobe Black included the Oklahoma Sooners in his top 11.
The Sooners were joined by some of the heavy hitters in college football. Alabama, LSU, Oregon, Ohio State, Texas, Texas A&M, Florida, TCU, Nebraska, and USC were also named in the top 11 released via Black’s Twitter account.
Black’s a five-star player in the 247Sports composite rankings and is considered a top-five cornerback across the board. Both 247Sports and On3 consider him to be a top 20 player in the 2024 recruiting class, while Rivals has him at No. 34 and ESPN at No. 41.
“I like them,” Black told On3’s Chad Simmons in March (On3+). “I like Oklahoma a lot, I like the way they coach. They’re like family, really, there.”
Kobe Black plays in all three phases for his high school squad, displaying good speed and a fluidity that allows him to move well in space. He does a really good job breaking on the football and is a natural playmaker.
In 2021, he was the District 9-4A D-II Defensive Newcomer of the Year and in 2022, he was an 11-4A D-II all-district selection at wide receiver and cornerback.
