When Brent Venables returned to Oklahoma, he made it a priority to recruit the state well and has the Sooners well-positioned to land one of the top players in the Sooner State.
Four-star defensive lineman Xadavien Sims announced the top five teams at this point in his recruitment. Sims included the Oklahoma Sooners, TCU Horned Frogs, Michigan State Spartans, and Oregon Ducks.
On Wednesday, Sims announced that he plans to commit on May 20 at C4 Sports Oklahoma’s Pro Day in Durant.
Though the Sooners are in a good spot for the No. 2 player in the state of Oklahoma, their biggest competitors to land a commitment from Sims appear to be the Michigan State Spartans and the Oregon Ducks.
Sims has incredible burst off the snap, using great strength and quickness to get into the backfield. He’s relentless in pursuit and does a great job working up the line of scrimmage to cut down on running lanes.
If Oklahoma were to land Sims, it would be a great start to what could be a great defensive line class for the Sooners.
