The Oklahoma Sooners<\/a> are in a great spot in the 2027 recruiting cycle<\/a> as they begin spring ball. They have 19 players committed and the No. 1 recruiting class and aren’t anywhere close to finished. On Wednesday, Greg Biggins of Rivals projected<\/a> the Oklahoma Sooners<\/a> to land a commitment from three-star defensive tackle Sione Felila out of California.<\/p>\n The Sooners made an impression on Felila during his visit in early March<\/a>. Felila told Biggins he was tempted to commit to the Sooners during the Future Freaks weekend at the beginning of the month, when Oklahoma had a historic run of commitments. Felila said he wants to honor his commitment to the schools he’s planned official visits with. He’ll go to Cal on June 5, Kansas on June 12, and BYU on June 19, and intends to return to Norman for an official visit.<\/p>\n Felila has 18 offers at the moment, including 12 from Power Four schools with heavy hitters like Oklahoma, Oregon, and Notre Dame in the mix.<\/p>\n Only rated a three-star prospect at the moment, Felila looks the part of a legit SEC nose tackle. He displays the play strength to not just hold up at the point of attack, but also reset the line of scrimmage by knocking his opponent back. That strength allows him to be scheme-versatile. He can play two-gap responsibilities with his power, but also has the quickness to penetrate in a one-gap scheme.<\/p>\n He’s a talented prospect that has a chance to see his recruiting stock rise significantly over the next nine months and the Oklahoma Sooners look to be in a great spot to earn a commitment from Felila.<\/p>\n Need a news break?
