Oklahoma included in top 6 for 2024 5-star DL Dominick McKinley

The Oklahoma Sooners coaching staff continues to lay the groundwork for what they are hoping to be another top-five class in the 2024 Recruiting Cycle.

It’s been clear the Sooners hope to attack the defensive line. They appear to be trending toward five-star David Stone and five-star Williams Nwaneri. The Sooners are also heavily in the mix for 2024 four-star defensive line prospects Nigel Smith and Joseph Jonah-Ajonye.

Now you can add another 5-star to that list in Dominick McKinley. The 6-foot-6, 270-pound defensive lineman from Louisiana would be a huge steal right from under LSU’s nose.

On Wednesday night, McKinley released his top six with OU and LSU joined by the likes of Texas, Ohio State, Texas A&M, and Georgia.

On3 currently has LSU as the heavy favorite. However, he’s already taken one visit to Norman and is expected to be in town on arguably the biggest recruiting weekend of the year for the Sooners on June 16 for the ChampU BBQ.

McKinley is a top 10 defensive lineman in the 2024 cycle and the No. 1 player in Louisiana, according to On3 and 247Sports.

Now Sooner fans have to sit back and hope Brent Venables and co. can pull off some “Sooner Magic” as they continue to build a strong relationship with the highly-touted lineman with hopes of putting together one of the best defensive line recruiting classes in the last decade.
