Oklahoma Sooners offer 2025 prospect Marco Jones out of California

The Oklahoma Sooners have been getting a jump start on the 2025 recruiting cycle in recent weeks, and their latest target is San Ramon Valley linebacker Marco Jones.

Out of Danville, Calif., the sophomore linebacker is an exciting prospect. According to Max Preps, in 15 games at the varsity level in 2022, Jones recorded 149 tackles, averaging 9.9 tackles per game.

Jones is a big player already at 6-foot-4 and 205 pounds and he looks the part of a Power Five linebacker. He’s an explosive player off the snap. On the blitz, his quickness and speed allow him to get by offensive linemen before they can fully get into their pass set.

He’s a physical player who initiates contact with the ball carrier and would-be blockers. As an inside linebacker, he does a nice job of working through traffic to find the ball carrier to make the play.

Though unranked at the moment, it won’t be long before Jones is assigned four-star status. His size and athletic profile will make him a high-priority target for Brent Venables and other coaches at the highest level. He has just four offers at the moment, but as his career continues, his offer sheet will be a mile long. In addition to Oklahoma, he holds offers from Arizona, California, and Colorado.
