Lincoln Riley and the Oklahoma Sooners have nabbed their 24th commitment for the class of 2019, as pass rusher David Ugwoebu has announced his commitment to OU via Twitter.
Ugwoegbu is a 6’4”, 225-pound product of Seven Lakes High School in Katy, Texas who also held offers from Texas, Alabama, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, Nebraska, Florida, Baylor, Tennessee, and TCU among others. This commitment is significant for OU in that Ugwoegbu is the first defensive player to commit to OU since Alex Grinch was hired as defensive coordinator, and his strengths as a pass rusher will help address one of the Sooners’ greatest defensive needs from last season.
