Reggie Powers - 4-star safety - Dayton, Ohio - SIGNED

K.J. Daniels - 3-Star WR - Franklinton, Louisiana - Signed

Considered a three-star prospect, Kelly Daniels is truly a big play waiting to happen. Whether in the passing game or the running game, he is a cheat code with his ability to accelerate and break away from defenders. He’ll be an impact player for the Sooners on the outside but could carve out a role in the slot as he continues to refine his game. – John Williams, Sooners Wire

James Nesta - 4-Star LB - Cornelius, North Carolina - SIGNED

He stands 6 feet, 5 inches, and his Hough High School team featured a fearsome defense partly due to his ability to play in space as a traditional linebacker and on the edge, rushing the passer. – Bryant Crews, Sooners Wire

Xavier Robinson burst on the scene after an incredible junior season in which he rushed for 2,594 yards and 39 TDs on 9.4 yards per carry.

Wyatt Gilmore - 4-Star Edge - Rogers, Minnesota - SIGNED

Wyatt Gilmore is someone Oklahoma Sooners fans are going to love. He plays with a high motor and is constantly around the ball and making plays. He most likely will spend the 2024 campaign developing his body and getting bigger for the 2025 season. But he could become a rotation piece in 2024 because of how hard he plays. – Jaron Spor, Sooners Wire

Ivan Carreon - 4-Star WR - Odessa, Texas - SIGNED

The first thing you notice about Ivan Carreon on the football field is his size. At 6 feet, 6 inches, he towers over defensive backs. But that’s not all he is. Carreon is a smooth route runner who has a full route tree to work with. He can win after the catch with great lateral agility for a player his size and has tremendous breakaway speed. – John Williams, Sooners Wire

In the fall, he was a unanimous selection to Texas District 20-6A first-team after tallying 39 catches for 765 yards and eight touchdowns in 2022.

From the slot, he caught bubble screens or ran drags that allowed him to utilize his speed and frame to be a huge target for his quarterback while on the move. –  Bryant Crews, Sooners Wire

Jayden Jackson - 4-Star DT - Bradenton, Florida - SIGNED

In Jayden Jackson, the Oklahoma Sooners landed a legit nose tackle that will offer production as both a run-stuffer and pass rusher.

He has the quickness and agility to dart into the backfield and disrupt the play. – John Williams, Sooners Wire

Zion Ragins, 4-Star WR - Gray, Georgia - SIGNED

Zion Ragins is a state champion sprinter in the 100-meter dash. On the football field, he is simply a player who needs the ball in his hands. It doesn’t matter how, but get him the ball and let him do his thing. – Bryant Crews, Sooners Wire

Danny Okoye - 4-Star edge - Tulsa, Oklahoma - Signed

Danny Okoye has all of the physical tools to make an immediate impact at Oklahoma. You worry about the competition he played in high school, but the tools are there. He could be a situational pass rusher for them in 2024 and has a very bright future. – Jaron Spor, Sooners Wire

Brenden Zurbrugg - 3-Star QB - Alliance, Ohio - SIGNED

Nigel Smith - 4-Star DL - Melissa, Texas - SIGNED

Power is Nigel Smith’s calling card. He uses excellent raw strength to bull rush opponents. Smith plans to enroll early, so he’ll be on campus when Oklahoma starts winter ball in January. – Bryant Crews, Sooners Wire

Michael Hawkins - 4-Star QB - Frisco, Texas - SIGNED

Michael Hawkins is an Oklahoma legacy by way of his father, who played defensive back at Oklahoma under Brent Venables.

He accounted for over 50 touchdowns and fewer than seven turnovers in 2023. – Bryant Crews, Sooners Wire

Eddy Pierre-Louis - 4-star OL - Tampa, Florida - SIGNED

The 6-foot-3, 335-pound guard is a freak of nature. Eddy Pierre-Louis recorded 25 reps at 225 pounds on the bench press at a camp last summer.

Eli Bowen - 4-Star CB (Rivals) - Guyer, Denton, Texas - SIGNED

Michael Boganowski - 4-Star ATH - Junction City, Kansas - SIGNED

He dominated at 6 feet, 2 inches and 205 pounds at Junction City (Kansas) High School and was initially recruited as a safety. It’s safe to say he’ll get his first crack in college as a safety as well, but because of his frame, he could slide down, bulk up and play linebacker or he could end up at the most versatile spot on the defense, cheetah. – Bryant Crews, Sooners Wire

Jeremiah Newcombe - 4-star CB - Queen Creek, Arizona - SIGNED

A consensus four-star prospect, Newcombe is the No. 27 cornerback in the 2024 recruiting cycle. A two-way player for Casteel, Newcombe is a really good athlete who will continue to improve as he matures physically. – John Williams, Sooners Wire

Davon Mitchell was considered a five-star prospect and the No. 1 tight end in the 2025 class before reclassifying to 2024. Mitchell could compete for significant playing time right away. – Jaron Spor, Sooners Wire

David Stone - 5-star DL - Bradenton Florida - SIGNED

 

He stands 6 feet, 4 inches and carries 280 pounds effortlessly. With that frame, he could certainly add more mass. That size, combined with elite athleticism, technique, charisma and production at the highest levels of high school football, is unmatched. He’s the crown jewel of the 2024 recruiting class and should see snaps as soon as next year. – Bryant Crews, Sooners Wire

Isaiah Autry - 3-star OL - Fulton, Mississippi - SIGNED

As the No. 1 offensive tackle in the state of Mississippi, Autry has good technique and displays great strength. Once he latches on to a rusher, he stops them in his tracks. His 6-foot-7 frame provides good reach to prevent rushers from getting in on his body, allowing Autry to maintain leverage. He drives his feet as a run blocker, continuing his blocking assignment well after the ball carrier has broken through to the second level. – John Williams, Sooners Wire

Eugene Brooks - 4-Star OL - Chatsworth, California - SIGNED

He’s the No. 5 interior offensive lineman nationally, according to 247Sports, and the No. 14 player in the state of California. He’s a strong player who has the size to step in and be a difference-maker early in his Sooners career. – John Williams, Sooners Wire
