The Sooners are up to No. 11 in the 247Sports Composite Rankings after landing electric edge rusher Adepoju Adebawore on Sunday in addition to scoring coveted offensive linemen in Top247 recruit Cayden Green on Friday and Logan Howland on Saturday.
Brent Venables and his staff sit on 14 commits to date.
Adebawore chose the Sooners over Georgia, Missouri and Northwestern where his older brother has Adetomiwa is developing into a potential NFL Draft pick. Adebawore has a massive frame (7-foot wing span and 10-inch hands) and unique quickness and seems like a sure-fire future star in a Venables run defense.
The 6-foot-5, 315-pound Green is one of the more physically ready offensive linemen in the country and the Sooners beat out LSU, Michigan, Missouri and Nebraska for him. Both he and Adebawore are Top100 players checking in at No. 92 and No. 98 respectively.
Meanwhile Howland was recruited by some of the best offensive line coaches in the country including obviously OU's Bill Bedenbaugh. He chose the Sooners over Michigan, the program that won the Joe Moore Award given to the best offensive line in the country last season, Miami, who puts so much emphasis on the position with Mario Cristobal and Alex Mirabel in sync together and Iowa (y’all know about the Hawkeyes track record on the offensive front). With that, something tells me the 6-foot-7, 280-pound Howland could develop into something special.
