Recruiting Blitz: Sooners Roll Out the Red Carpet for 2028 Standouts
Oklahoma’s football program, fresh off a top-ranked 2027 haul, has extended offers to two consensus four-star prospects in the Class of 2028: wide receiver Carter St. Junious (6’3”, 185 lbs, No. 56 overall) out of Manvel, TX, and defensive tackle Geraci Carson (6’5”, 300 lbs, No. 99 overall) from Jackson, MS. St. Junious caught 40 passes for 585 yards and five TDs as a Texas 6A sophomore and has drawn interest from Texas, A&M, LSU, Oregon and Miami. Carson racked up 35 tackles, 13 TFLs and three sacks at Lanier High, plus offensive line snaps, and earned All-Combine honors at the Navy All-American Combine. Both prospects visit powerhouse programs, and OU aims to turn its top-ranked ’27 class into back-to-back recruiting triumphs.
In a move that screams “we’ve got all the gear and no idea how to stop recruiting,” Oklahoma’s staff seems determined to fill every position not even invented yet. They’ve tossed scholarship offers like candy at Halloween, hoping a 6’3” wideout from Texas and a 300-pound mountain of muscle from Mississippi will keep the glory train chugging. Meanwhile, OU fans are collectively polishing their crystal balls and updating their favorite Michigan and Ohio State detachment theories—because nothing says “recruiting dominance” like poaching kids who haven’t even hit puberty yet. If this keeps up, Sooners will be drafting high schoolers before they learn to drive.
Diamond Dominance: Four Sooners Swing into Top 25 Finalists
The Oklahoma softball team led all programs with four players—Gabbie Garcia, Kai Minor, Ella Parker and Kendall Wells—named to the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year Top 25 list. Only two freshmen (Minor and Wells) cracked the roster, while upperclassmen comprised the bulk of the field. Wells paces the nation in home runs, threatening Laura Espinoza’s single-season NCAA record, and holds multiple OU and SEC slugging marks. Minor is batting .440, ranks third among freshmen nationally, and has swiped 17 bases. Parker’s .430 average, 19 homers and perfect outfield fielding highlight her breakout junior year. The Top 10 finalists will be revealed May 13, with the winner crowned before the 2026 Women’s College World Series.
In case anyone thought Oklahoma’s softball dynasty was taking a nap, four Sooners just reminded the world that “modesty” isn’t in Norman’s vocabulary. It’s as if the coaching staff handed each player a magic wand, then said “go break every record except the ones we haven’t named yet.” And while the rest of the country scrambles to find one headline-grabbing slugger, OU quietly fields a quartet of statistical nightmares. Expect the media to gasp, the SEC to petition for mercy, and the NCAA to consider adding “Oklahoma Offense” to the coaching rulebook. World, meet the never-ending roller derby of home runs.
