Oklahoma is a heavy contender for yet another highly-touted offensive line recruit, as class of 2022 four-star offensive tackle Jake Taylor included the Sooners in his final three schools on Monday.
Out of Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, Taylor is rated the No. 35 offensive tackle in the country and the No. 282 overall recruit in his class by 247Sports’ composite rankings. His final three is rounded out with two other college football blue bloods in Alabama and Notre Dame.
At 6-foot-6 and 275 pounds, the young man certainly has the frame and size of someone who could develop into a really good player at the next level. Like really any offensive lineman with good high school tape, the sky is the limit when coming to Norman to learn under one of the best coaches of the position in the country in Bill Bedenbaugh.
