Four-star running back Taylor Tatum, the No. 38 recruit in the 2024 ESPN 300, committed to the Oklahoma Sooners on Friday.
Tatum, out of Longview High School (Texas), is ranked as the second-best running back in the class and becomes the highest-ranked member of Brent Venables' class. "The hometown feel (to the school) and I believe in Coach V's plans there, as well," Tatum told ESPN.
In addition to Oklahoma, Tatum made official visits to USC and Michigan in June. He intends to play both football and baseball (center field) in college.
