Sooners pick up first commitment for 2013
CAMPUS CORNER — Those fretting that Oklahoma did not yet have a commitment for 2013 can again function without irritation.
Houston-area running back Keith Ford became the first on Saturday during the Sooners’ Junior Day, as first reported by OU’s Rivals website.
Ford, from Cypress, Texas, is 5 foot 11 and 195 pounds. He has myriad offers, including ones from Alabama, Florida State, Michigan, Notre Dame, Oklahoma State and Wisconsin. He us currently listed as a Rivals 4-star and the site’s No. 113 overall prospect – though those things could change in the months ahead to February’s National Signing Day.
Texas had 11 commits, at last check on its Rivals website. That left some OU fans wondering what was taking the Sooners so long to land No. 1. They started, it turned out, with a Texan.
