The Oklahoma Sooners went deep into the state of Louisiana for a second time in less than two weeks, pulling out another highly recruited talent from the Bayou State. On Monday, OU secured a verbal commitment from 3-star linebacker Pernell Jefferson.
Jefferson was a beast for Warren Easton Senior High School in 2014, coming up with 115 tackles, 13 sacks, two fumble recoveries and one pick. With Jefferson leading the way, the Eagles posted a 12-3 record before falling to Neville 28-27 in a heart-breaking state championship title game.
