There have been plenty of cryptic tweets, hints and rumblings, but now a date has officially been set.
After the de-commitment of then No. 1 quarterback Brock Vandagriff on Jan. 1, Lincoln Riley put all his eggs in the basket for the now No. 1 quarterback in the 2021 recruiting class.
Caleb Williams has played the game for the last four months. Many assume what he is going to do, but we will now find out on July 4th where he will be headed to play college football.
Williams, a Washington D.C. native, set a final three of Oklahoma, LSU and Maryland on May 3.
“Coming out with a few cool things when it gets to that point, but July 4 is the day that fireworks will be shooting up into the sky with all of the commits,” he wrote in this week’s blog with Sports Illustrated. “The guys and coaches will be going crazy and hopefully the fans go crazy, too. I’m committing to one of these three schools.
“July 4 is the date and I’m very excited. I can’t wait. I’ve got a lot planned coming up in this next month. Three weeks and five days, now. A lot planned, ready to go. Ready to do it.”
Oklahoma last landed the No. 1 quarterback in the country when Spencer Rattler committed in the 2019 recruiting class.
