#1 QB in the nation in 2022 and Oklahoma already has Rattler and Williams so they may skip out the 22 year?? Count me in.

I'm sure the guy has heard of or even likes Coach Morris, however we seem to be focusing mainly on Dual threat QBs. I understand we'll take him if he wants to come,  but if the pro style kid from GA. Van Der whatever likes AU and still didn't come because of Morris then are we really in the hunt for this kid or is this a pipe dream? Just sayin  🤷‍♂️ Someone please inform me

In QB recruiting you don’t skip a year If you can help it. Very good chance at least one of their current QBs or commits will not be at Oklahoma at that point.

@Timeslider 6 Really in the hunt. I would not have created this thread if it was just a pipe dream. BVG was much further along in his recruitment when we got Chad Morris. It wasn’t enough to offset the effects of BVG not wanting to play for Gus Malzahn because of prior QB development. Also watch the film from the OP. This cat is mobile.

#1 overall recruit in the country for 2022 per 247. Wow. 

[autan 737]

I didn't think we seriously recruited Pro-style QBs any more.

They really need to drop the distinction IMO. Probably the only thing that makes him "pro style" is recruiting services calling him that. 

Also, people are calling this kid the best since Trevor Lawrence (also listed as "pro style", also plays at a program that has rolled mostly "dual threat" guys the last decade). That's only been 3 years, but still, if you can't make your offense work with a guy of that caliber then you really need to call it a day.
