The Path to Norman

Jeremiah Newcombe comes from a football family. His father, Bobby, played QB at Nebraska and was drafted to the NFL in 2001. Jeremiah’s brother, Isaiah, plays for UCLA. The Sooners offered Jeremiah in the fall of 2022; Newcombe’s offer sheet already included USC, Washington, and others, with offers from Notre Dame and Michigan coming soon after. The four star DB took a visit to Norman in the spring of 2023. Within a few weeks, he committed to the Sooners.

Highlights

This Season

With a summer arrival and a deep CB room, Newcombe is likely looking at a redshirt season this fall.
