Oklahoma Sooners 2027 commit made sure to let everyone know what he’s doing after a recent pledge had fans worried
The Oklahoma Sooners recently landed a commitment from another quarterback in the 2027 recruiting class.
Last Sunday, the Oklahoma Sooners landed 2027 quarterback Noah Smith from Lawton, Oklahoma. But, they already had a 2027 quarterback in four-star QB Jameson Roberts. This quickly confused the fan base, as teams don’t often have two QBs in the same recruiting class.
However, this week, not long after that, Roberts let everyone know he was locked in. he posted a graphic that says “Locked In” in bold letters. He also let everyone know he’ll be doing some 7-on-7 and will be in Norman with his “Family,” which could mean his actual family or OU as his family. They’re getting Smith, but that doesn’t mean Roberts is gone now. In fact, it doesn’t change anything for Roberts at all. He’s still the guy.
Sooners like the potential Noah Smith could have
So it feels like the Sooners may have a diamond-in-the-rough quarterback in Smith. He’s 6’3, 210 pounds, but hasn’t received any major offers from Division 1 schools. He had three offers, all from Division 2 or JUCO programs. Smith doesn’t actually even have a rating.
Maybe this is just a situation where it’s an in-state kid whose dream is to just be a Sooner, and he’ll be a guy at the end of the depth chart who just sits and learns for a year before transferring. We don’t know what will happen, but it’s certainly something to keep an eye on. For now, though, who is Noah Smith?
That doesn’t mean Smith isn’t talented, or that he won’t earn a rating by the time he arrives. With so many high school players nationwide, he just hasn’t drawn broad attention yet. Still, the Sooners clearly see something in him.
As for Roberts, he has some pretty insane potential, too. He can be an elite dual-threat quarterback, especially in Ben Arbuckle’s system. Roberts also has the arm talent to make some pretty great plays there. The Sooners 2027 class is still looking good.
