The Oklahoma Sooners have just one offensive lineman committed to the 2024 recruiting class at this point; Isaiah Autry. They’re in a good spot with guys like Casey Poe and Bennett Warren, but another blue-chip prospect thinks highly of the Sooners.
2024 four-star offensive tackle Isaiah Garcia included the Sooners in his top 10 released on Tuesday evening. The Sooners were joined by Utah, Nebraska, UCLA, Miami, Alabama, USC, Oregon, Washington, and Stanford.
Garcia ranks as the No. 20 offensive tackle in the 247Sports composite and as a top 250 player nationally.
Out of Draper, Utah, Garcia is 6-5 and weighs in at 280 pounds. He holds offers from 21 Power Five schools. Utah appears to be the frontrunner for the in-state prospect, with both 247Sports crystal ball predictions favoring the Utes. On3 has USC and Oregon as the leaders for the talented offensive line prospect.
He’s taken official visits with USC, Utah, Oregon, and Stanford to this point as it looks like he’s narrowed down his recruitment to the west coast schools.
The Sooners were late to the game, offering in February. But with just over six months until the early signing period, there’s a chance they could make up significant ground.
Well-proportioned frame and narrow through the hips. High-upside body type with plus length. Athletic tackle who absorbs contact well. Displays a mean streak in pass protection. Moves his feet tremendously well to stay in front of pass rushers. Seamlessly shifts weight to stay balanced at the point of attack. Flashes great flexibility and bend. Shows good hand violence to neutralize defenders. Could continue to improve as a run blocker and maintaining pad leverage. Potential multi-year starter at elite Power Five level. – Blair Angulo, 247Sports recruiting analyst
