The next circled date on the Oklahoma football calendar is National Signing Day Part II, which comes up two weeks from now.

College football is considered a seasonal sport, but at elite programs like Oklahoma, recruiting is a year-round, highly competitive activity that feeds and sustains the thrills that we, the fans, long for every fall.

The Sooners’ 2021 class currently stands at 16, all of which signed letters of intent during the early signing period in December.
