Fall camp is underway! Check out some of the best photos from the first few practices as the Sooners get ready for 2022.

Fall camp is underway for the Oklahoma Sooners. They’ll kick off the 2022 college football season in 23 days against the UTEP Miners.

With everything that’s happened over the last nine months since Oklahoma lost to the Oklahoma State Cowboys in Bedlam, everything has pointed to fall camp as the Sooners get set for September 3 and UTEP.

Oklahoma’s looking to reclaim their seat on the Big 12 throne but has several things they need to work through in fall camp to be ready for the season opener. The Sooners are one of the favorites to contend in the Big 12 and as they continue their preparations for 2022, let’s take a look at some of the best photos from the first few days of fall camp.

2022 QB Positional Preview: Dillon Gabriel leading the way for the Oklahoma Sooners

Under two months away from the start of the 2022 college football season, let’s take a look at where the Oklahoma Sooners stand at quarterback.

The quarterback position at the University of Oklahoma has become as prominent a spot as there is in college sports. For more than two decades, the Sooners have deployed incredibly talented players at the position to the tune of four Heisman Trophy winners and multiple finalists.

Though there’s been a ton of turnover at the position since Lincoln Riley left for the USC Trojans, the Sooners are still in a great spot at quarterback heading into 2022.

With Dillon Gabriel at the helm and Jeff Lebby calling the plays, there are high expectations for the Oklahoma Sooners offensively and for good reason; Dillon Gabriel has the stuff.

Each Quarterback and Running Back the Oklahoma Sooners have offered in the 2024 recruiting class

With the focus on 2023 this summer, let’s take a look at the quarterbacks and running backs the Oklahoma Sooners have offered in the 2024 recruiting cycle.

Oklahoma’s had a lot of success recruiting the quarterback and running back positions since in the school’s history. Though the style of player has changed from the dynastic eras of the Bud Wilkinson and Barry Switzer days, Bob Stoops and Lincoln Riley’s Oklahoma Sooners were able to attract some of the best skill players the country has had to offer.

Since the turn of the century, Oklahoma’s had some of the best offensive players the game has seen, as evidenced by their four Heisman trophies, several finalists, and highly productive rushing attacks.

And now with Jeff Lebby running the show, Oklahoma’s going to continue that run of highly skilled offensive players at the Palace on the Prairie.

The Sooners have a nice group of quarterbacks to work with over the next couple of years with [autotag]Dillon Gabriel[/autotag], [autotag]Nick Evers[/autotag], [autotag]Davis Beville[/autotag], and [autotag]General Booty[/autotag] on the 2022 roster and [autotag]Jackson Arnold[/autotag] coming in 2023.

At running back, Oklahoma is also looking really good with [autotag]Eric Gray[/autotag]. [autotag]Marcus Major[/autotag], [autotag]Jovantae Barnes[/autotag], and [autotag]Gavin Sawchuk[/autotag] on the depth chart for 2022 with four-start running back [autotag]Kalib Hicks[/autotag] to come in 2023.

While the Sooners continue their push for the 2023 recruiting class, let’s take a look ahead to see who they’re targeting in 2024.

Oklahoma Sooners summer recruiting primer for the 2023 recruiting cycle

With the summer on the horizon, we took a look at the names to know as the Sooners look to make a push on the recruiting front for 2023.

Brent Venables and Co. are weeks removed from their first spring as a staff together. It was a successful one with no notable injuries and some standout performances across the board. All told, things went as well as they could’ve hoped considering the positive reviews from the media and recruits in attendance.

The spring game served as an eye-opener for recruits and gave the Oklahoma Sooners some significant momentum to ride as they head into the most crucial time of the year for recruiting. With spring ball done and the team going home to recharge before fall camp, the staff will be all in on recruiting. With that in mind, it’s time to map out the targets to watch as the 2023 class begins to materialize this summer.

Oklahoma Sooners add JUCO transfer QB General Booty

The Oklahoma Sooners added another quarterback to its ranks after getting a commitment from JUCO transfer General Booty.

The Oklahoma Sooners aren’t slowing down in the talent acquisition department as they prepare for the 2022 season. After getting a commitment from Pittsburgh transfer quarterback [autotag]Davis Beville[/autotag] earlier in the week, the Sooners landed another quarterback in the transfer portal, this time JUCO transfer General Booty.

Booty played one season for Tyler Junior College and threw for 3,115 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 11 interceptions. The former Allen Eagle was second in the junior college ranks in passing yards per game and fourth in passing touchdowns for Tyler, who went 7-5 in 2021 and finished second in the Southwest Junior College Football Conference.

Adding Booty to the ranks gives Jeff Lebby seven quarterbacks as they head into the summer. [autotag]Dillon Gabriel[/autotag] is the unquestioned starter and Davis Beville is the presumptive favorite to win the backup quarterback job. Then Oklahoma has true freshman [autotag]Nick Evers[/autotag], [autotag]General Booty[/autotag], [autotag]Micah Bowens[/autotag], [autotag]Ben Harris[/autotag], and [autotag]Ralph Rucker[/autotag].
