Presley's NCAA Eligibility Battle Won: Rejoins OSU

Braylin Presley is back on the Oklahoma State football roster. He enrolled at OSU last Wednesday and is set to begin practicing with the team on Monday. This move comes after Presley and other athletes obtained a temporary restraining order in September from a Cleveland County judge, granting him an additional season of college eligibility for the 2026-27 academic year. His legal team successfully argued that the NCAA had improperly excluded his high school class from a new rule providing five years of eligibility to Division I athletes.

Presley, a standout from Bixby High School, initially joined OSU in 2022 as a wide receiver, appearing in seven games. He then transferred to Tulsa before the 2023 season, where he started 10 games over three seasons. Ahead of his senior season in 2025, he transitioned to the running back position. Presley is part of a football family, with his brother Braeden Presley currently a freshman safety at OSU and his brother Brennan Presley, a former Cowboy receiver, ranking fifth in program history for receiving yards.
