2024 Four-star wide receiver Aeryn Hampton

The Oklahoma Sooners are early in their recruitment of four-star wide receiver Aaryn Hampton. After offering back on February 2, the Sooners found their way into his top seven released on February 8.

Emmett Jones had been recruiting Hampton from his time at Texas Tech, and that’s likely the reason the Sooners have quickly joined the race.

The Sooners will have some ground to make up, but as we’ve seen in some recent recruitments, don’t count Brent Venables and his staff out until a prospect’s name is signed on that national letter of intent.

As a prospect, Hampton displays incredible athleticism and breakaway speed. He’s a big-play threat every time he’s on the field because of his incredible agility and vision once the ball is in his hands. He’s a two-way player, starring in multiple defensive back roles, at wide receiver, and even returns kick with great effectiveness.

He’s a player that can play both in the slot and on the outside because of his quickness, agility, and speed.

The Sooners will have to catch up to the Crimson Tide to become a serious contender in the recruitment. They’ve already made significant headway in such a short time that they’ll be in it till the end.
