Sooners are competing for four-star WR with three other SEC schools that are known for developing WRs
Last season, the Oklahoma Sooners had a huge problem — they ran out of wide receivers. Now, not really, but there was a point in the season where their best five or six wide receivers were injured, all at the same time. So, going into the 2025 season they prepared for that, just in case […]
Last season, the Oklahoma Sooners had a huge problem — they ran out of wide receivers. Now, not really, but there was a point in the season where their best five or six wide receivers were injured, all at the same time.
So, going into the 2025 season they prepared for that, just in case a situation like that happens again. They loaded up on guys in the portal and high school, with two players that play the position from high school, and five through the transfer portal. And, they are starting to do the same with the 2026 class.
The Sooners just landed in the top six for one of the better WRs in the 2026 class, but their competition is three schools that are known for having some pretty good WRs.
Sooners land in the top six for WR Craig Dandridge
Craig Dandridge is a four-star wide receiver from Cambridge High School in Milton, Georgia, in the class of 2026. At 6’1” and 175 pounds, he’s ranked No. 328 overall, No. 51 wide receiver, and No. 42 in Georgia per the 247Sports rankings. In his junior season, he recorded 58 catches for 1,443 yards and 14 touchdowns, averaging 24.9 yards per catch, helping Cambridge to a 10-win season and a deep playoff run.
His speed, route-running, and playmaking ability have earned offers from nearly two dozen schools, including Georgia, Clemson, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Georgia Tech, and Stanford. Three of those schools are SEC schools, all good at developing and sending WRs to the NFL. I mean, just this last draft,t all three of those schools had a WR drafted. Oklahoma did not.
Dandridge’s recruitment is competitive, with Georgia leading after offering him on January 30, and hosting him for Junior Day. He has an official visit to Georgia on May 31, and feels a strong connection to the program.
He also has visits planned to Georgia Tech, Clemson, Tennessee, and Stanford, with Oklahoma making a strong push. Dandridge named a top six of these schools and plans to commit by summer 2025, with Oklahoma having a ton of work to do, or they could be the next team cut off.
2026 4-star running back committed to Oklahoma Sooners just got a very enticing offer from SEC foe
That would be a crazy flip.
