Oklahoma Poised for Big 2028 Recruiting Class
31 Jul
Summary
- Four-star receiver Dedrick Kimbrough is projected to commit to Oklahoma.
- Kimbrough is ranked nationally as a top-150 player and No. 9 in Alabama.
- Wide receivers coach Emmitt Jones is credited with recruiting momentum.

The Oklahoma Sooners are in a favorable position to recruit Dedrick Kimbrough, a highly-rated four-star wide receiver from the 2028 class. Predictions suggest an 84.3% chance of him committing to Oklahoma. Kimbrough is considered a top national talent, ranking within the top 150 players and the 21st best wide receiver in the country.
Kimbrough, who stands at 6-foot-2 and weighs 180 pounds, plays for Thompson High School in Alabaster, Alabama. While Alabama and other SEC schools are also showing interest, Oklahoma's recruitment momentum, particularly by wide receivers coach Emmitt Jones, appears to be a significant draw for the promising playmaker.
Securing Kimbrough would be a notable achievement for the Sooners, especially if they can land him over in-state rivals like Alabama. This potential commitment could energize Oklahoma's 2028 recruiting efforts, which currently only includes one commitment, quarterback Trey Tagliaferri. National Signing Day for the 2028 class is not until February 2028.
