Oklahoma Sooners expected to host transfer wide receiver target per On3 report

According to a report from On3, the Oklahoma Sooners are expected to host a big-time wide receiver target Monday.

The 2024 winter [autotag]transfer portal[/autotag] will open on Monday, but a number of players across the country have already made their intentions known. The Sooners, with holes to fill on the roster, are expected to be active in the portal this offseason.

Though there’s an expectation that a number of key wide receivers will return for 2025, Oklahoma has already made overtures to an intriguing target out of the Big Ten. According to On3’s Steve Wiltfong and Pete Nakos, former Indiana wide receiver Donaven McCulley will visit the Sooners on Monday. 

McCulley started his career with the Hoosiers as a quarterback before transitioning to wide receiver for his sophomore season. The 6-foot-5, 200-pound wide receiver has a number of suitors in the transfer portal market and spent time recently at Ohio State and Michigan.

In a breakout 2023 season at receiver, McCulley led the Hoosiers with 48 receptions for 644 yards and six touchdowns. In 2024, McCulley had two receptions for 21 yards in four games before leaving the Indiana football program.

With the struggles the Oklahoma Sooners had at wide receiver due to injuries and inexperience, the Sooners need a player with McCulley’s type of production to solidify the position next year.
