OU flipping WR
With options dwindling after four-star wide receiver Davian Groce committed to Florida over OU in the final moments, the Sooners are now searching for new options at the position to add to their 2026 class.
The Sooners are reportedly trying to flip Tulane commit Brayden Allen,according to Rivals' Steve Wiltfong. Allen is a three-star recruit and the No. 132 WR in the class, according to the 247Sports Composite.
OU currently has just one WR commit in four-star Daniel Odom.
