Oklahoma Sooners earn commitment from 2025 EDGE Alexander Shieldknight

The Oklahoma Sooners picked up their eighth commitment of the 2025 cycle with a pledge from Wagoner, Okla. product Alexander Shieldknight.

The Oklahoma Sooners continue to dominate in-state recruiting for the 2025 cycle, adding a commitment from 2025 EDGE Alexander Shieldknight.

Shieldknight makes the sixth commitment from the Sooner State in the cycle. He’s the No. 12 player in the state and the No. 36 EDGE in 2025.

As a junior in high school, Shieldknight brings great size and athleticism to the table. He’s got an impressive motor playing defensive end in Wagoner’s three-man alignment.

Shieldknight had offers from Oklahoma State, Arkansas, Texas Tech, Kansas, Tennessee, Vanderbilt, Tulsa, and Houston. It represents another big win in the state and in the 2025 recruiting class for the Sooners.

Shieldknight is the eighth commitment for the Sooners in 2025 and the second along the defensive line. He joins [autotag]Ka’Mori Moore[/autotag] out of Lee’s Summit North, who committed back in July.

The Sooners currently have the No. 4 recruiting class in the 247Sports team recruiting rankings. Early in the cycle, they are behind only Georgia, Alabama, and Notre Dame.

Oklahoma Sooners land commitment from 2025 DT Ka’Mori Moore

The Oklahoma Sooners picked up their third commitment in the 2025 recruiting class with the pledge of DT Ka’Mori Moore.

The Oklahoma Sooners’ head start on the 2025 recruiting class continued on Wednesday evening with the commitment of defensive tackle [autotag]Ka’Mori Moore[/autotag].

Moore is a three-star prospect in the On3 database and hails from Lee’s Summit North High School. The same school that produced current Sooners offensive lineman Cayden Green and Oklahoma targets Williams Nwaneri and Isaiah Mozee.

In Moore, the Sooners get their third commitment of the 2025 recruiting cycle. He joins four-star quarterback [autotag]Kevin Sperry[/autotag] and four-star wide receiver [autotag]Gracen Harris[/autotag].

Here’s what our Bryant Crews had to say about the talented defensive tackle prospect.

Moore is powerful but has excellent agility for someone his size. His ability to stonewall offensive linemen allows him to disrupt timing on plays and enables the rest of the defense to make plays. Moore also spent time in June at one of Oklahoma’s camps, showcasing his skills in front of the coaching staff. – Crews, Sooners Wire

Brent Venables and the Oklahoma Sooners are off to a blistering start in the 2025 cycle. With their three commitments have the No. 8 recruiting class in the 247Sports team recruiting rankings.

The Sooners are working to rebuild their defensive line from the Alex Grinch days. They got started in the 2023 cycle with the commitment of Adepoju Adebawore and are looking to follow that up with a historic class in the 2024 cycle. With Moore’s commitment, the Sooners are trending toward stacking good defensive line classes together as they prepare for life in the SEC.
