The Oklahoma Sooners can now add another commit on the offensive side of the ball. On Monday, the No. 1 center in the country Demetrius Hunter committed to play in Norman. The four-star center held offers from Arizona State, Colorado, Oklahoma State, Southern Methodist, and Texas A&M. This is Bill Bedenbaugh’s first commit of the 2022 cycle.
“They had a good season,” Hunter said. “They won, what is that, six straight Big 12 Championships? So, I like that. Coach Bedenbaugh is a good coach, I got a good relationship with him. I talk to him every day, call him every day. I also like talking to the head coach as well, coach Lincoln Riley. We talk a lot, he calls me and says he wants me up there so we got a real good relationship.” – Demetrius Hunter to 247Sports
