Todd Bates, Miguel Chavis, and the Oklahoma staff have chipped in on this recruitment. Native Oklahoman and Sooner legend Gerald McCoy has also been actively recruiting Stone. The Sooners former top five NFL draft pick understands how transformative Stone could be to the Sooners defensive front.

Oklahoma is looking to create shockwaves by landing Stone and redeem their recruiting failures in pursuit of other five-star defensive linemen. Unlike the other recruitments, Stone is from Oklahoma and grew up an Oklahoma fan. This recruitment is a pivotal moment in the present and future of Oklahoma’s football program.

Todd Bates and Brent Venables have been down this road before and know how to navigate recruiting top-ten defenders. Bates was the lead recruiter in bringing defensive tackle Bryan Bresee to Clemson when he and Venables were with the Tigers. Bresee was the No. 1 player in the 247Sports composite back in 2020.

With one month until he decides, Oklahoma will push into overdrive to seal the deal and land the No. 6 overall prospect in 247Sports’ composite rankings.
