Sooner Summit could make big impact on Oklahoma recruiting

The Sooners Summit was traversed.

Last weekend, a group of Oklahoma football commits and targets took a visit to Norman to check out the campus.

Visitors included targets offensive linemen Tristan Leigh and Savion Byrd, running back Camar Wheaton and wide receiver Jalil Farooq.  The event was organized and headlined by top-ranked QB and Oklahoma commit Caleb Williams.

Rivals recruiting directors Mike Farrell and Adam Gorney think the Sooner Summit will have big implications on Oklahoma’s 2021 class.

“It was a major recruiting move orchestrated by Williams and it should pay off in a big way. First, because Oklahoma has a lot to offer and lots of top recruits are highly interested anyway and also because this was a one-of-a-kind special event with lots of top kids on campus.” Gorney said.

“And it will work,” Farrell wrote. “This is a big deal and, if Leigh, Farooq, Wheaton and others end up at Oklahoma, this could be a huge reason. This Summit might be a difference maker for the Sooners.”

Oklahoma currently hold the No. 14 class in the nation, just one spot behind Texas for the top-ranked class in the Big 12.

The Sooners are set to kick off their season with a matchup versus Missouri State on Sept. 12.
