Shortly after the news broke, former Oklahoma player and Sooner Radio Network analyst Gabe Ikard<\/a> posted on X:<\/p>\n

“If you don’t treat the people that pour into the program with the respect they deserve\u2026then there’s not [sic] place for you at Oklahoma.”<\/p>\n

No reason was given for his ousting, but the move fits the tight culture head coach Brent Venables has built in Norman. Coach Venables has consistently enforced strict program standards<\/a> since taking over in Norman.<\/p>\n

Rogers came to Oklahoma as a four-star recruit<\/a> from Appoquinimink High School in Wilmington, Delaware. The 5-foot-11, 180-pound receiver chose the Sooners over Alabama, Nebraska and Penn State. Rogers caught five passes for 70 yards in the spring game.<\/p>\n

Through the first month of the 2026 season, Rogers logged just six offensive snaps and zero catches.<\/p>\n

Does losing depth hurt down the road? Sure. Does it matter against Texas on Saturday? Not even a little bit.<\/p>\n

Venables’ message is clear: get with the program or get lost.<\/p>\n
