our 2017 commits are looking good so far...

It's damn hard to compete for kids after 8-5 seasons, takes more than one year sometimes to recoup "the juice" or whatever you call what makes your program better than the others.

It looks like we're patching as best we can. At this point, I couldn't tell you that we would be favorites to win the Big XII again.

We've still managed to picked up some big time players though, including Bledsoe, Youngquist, and we are still expected to grab Kelly.

Starting off good in Texas too. Think I read somewhere all 5 of these guys are top 250 as well.

Just goes to show the power of Bedenbaugh. Didn't see the Sooners getting into the run for this player and BLAMO.... WOW! So glad the Sooners got him, but still feel for him about Michigan dropping him after a long time commitment just a week before signing day.

Eric Swenson, OT, 6-7 285lbs
4 Star, longtime Michigan commit

It will be cool to see him develop physically after a while in the program with Schmidty and Bryd.

Could be another Lane Johnson in the making!

Just hope he plays more for us than Lane did....

This is just an awesome pick up. Seemed to come out of no where. Perfect size and hands to be contender...way cool. Well done, Sooners, nice pick up.!

Saw some camp video of him going against some big times DB recruits and he made them look silly. Dude is built like a college Junior and his double move on a stop and go was just sick. Been a while since we had a physical guy like him at wide out. He and Andrews could give opposing DB's nightmares.

Looks like more of a linebacker. Excellent first step.

Mr Jones.... Come on down..

Big time grab here. I was getting frustrated of our lack of WR recruits a couple weeks ago. We're gonna end up fine.

On the negative side: OU lost Ryan Parker, Cobb. Mayden to Bama. Don't land Kelly tonight, would be a pretty disappointing day overall. Also, Texas is fucking murdering it on the recruiting trail today.

Meh, we're doing as good or better as we've done the last 4 or 5 years.

Success breeds success. Hopefully, this year will pan out. Our player development is head and shoulders above the rest.

Parker wasn't going to qualify, and won't for tcu either. Losing both Mayden and Cobb hurts. Getting Kelly would make this class a lot better.
