The Oklahoma Sooners have a chance to put together a special recruiting class in 2025. The Sooners currently sit with 10 commitments and rank No. 6 in the country.
Since their junior day in January, they’ve been getting numerous predictions in their favor for one of the most sought high school players, five-star safety [autotag]Jonah Williams[/autotag] from Galveston, Texas.
That continued on Monday as the Sooners gained one from 247Sports’ national recruiting analyst Mike Roach. Roach put in his prediction with a confidence level of six. Roach joins 247Sports director of football recruiting Steve Wiltfong, who issued a crystal ball prediction on Feb. 6.
Williams is a linebacker/safety hybrid, with the Sooners recruiting him more as a safety, but I could see him ultimately growing into the cheetah role for Oklahoma. He finished with 54 tackles, eight pass breakups, four interceptions, three interceptions returned for touchdowns and four punt and kick return touchdowns last season.
The No. 14 overall player in the country would be a major get for anyone in the country, but especially at Oklahoma, which is set to lose [autotag]Billy Bowman[/autotag] after this year. One thing we’ve seen, though, since this regime took over in 2022 is safeties coach [autotag]Brandon Hall[/autotag] can recruit and has done a good job at developing as well.
So, the Sooners have the right guy in charge of leading his recruitment it’s now just about closing the deal.
