The Oklahoma Sooners are making a strong push for their 2026 recruiting class after a down year with their 2025 class. The Sooners already have four commitments lined up in their '26 class, currently ranked 23rd in the country.
It sounds like the Sooners could be adding even more talent to their class. Rivals' National Recruiting Analyst Sam Spiegelman logged a prediction for the Sooners to add three-star wide receiver Aljour Miles out of Texas.
A multi-sport star with track and basketball experience, Aljour Miles brings some size and intriguing athleticism to a Sooners' wide receiver room currently lacking in some. Miles is low across the rankings, coming in as the 82nd-ranked wide receiver in the country according to 247Sports Composite rankings, but he has a deep offer sheet.
Miles has offers from the Sooners as well as, Texas Tech, SMU, USC, TCU, Kansas State, and Kansas.
Miles is a coveted target for wide receivers coach Emmett Jones and has developed a good relationship with another target of the Oklahoma Sooners in wide receiver Mason James. The two of them could be part of a package deal and help the Sooners continue their strong track record of wide receiver recruiting.
The key for the Sooners will be to have the offense back on track as one of the best in college football. Oklahoma had back-to-back top-ten offenses in 2022 and 2023 before 2024 saw them produce their worst offensive season perhaps ever. The Sooners hired a new offensive coordinator in Ben Arbuckle to turn the ship around.
If Oklahoma can return to their offensive heights, there should be a huge resurgence in their recruiting presence. The Sooners need to recapture that recruiting dominance if they want to stay competitive in the SEC. Rebounding with a top-ten class in 2026 would be a huge win for Brent Venables and the Sooners moving forward, and Aljour Miles could be an underrated part of that.
