The Path to Norman

Ashton Sanders was one of the last pick ups in the 2023 OU class. Hailing from Pasadena, the defensive lineman was a Cal commit for a short period. His OU offer came in the fall of 2022. Within a month, Sanders had committed to the Sooners.

Highlights

This Season

Sanders has received a lot of praise this spring, with his agility, focus, and maturity all mentioned. He’s a quick defensive tackle and has turned some heads this offseason. It seems likely that he’ll still redshirt this year, but all signs point to Sanders being a real player for OU down the road.
