The Path to Norman

Trejan Bridges, a highly-ranked recruit out of Texas, took a visit to Norman in June, 2017, picking up an offer the same day. After that, it seemed like a matter of time before he would become a Sooner. Sure enough, he committed that fall, becoming one of the very early members of the 2019 OU class.

Despite offers from plenty of other big programs, including Alabama and Ohio State, Bridges was all OU. Coach Margin Hooks, a receiver trainer in Texas who has trained the likes of CeeDee Lamb, Charleston Rambo, and Hollywood Brown, called Bridges’ hands “the best hands I have ever seen in my life… on a scale of one to ten, he’s a twelve.”

TFB got to know Trejan’s family by speaking with his father, which you can find here to learn more about them. 

Career so Far

Four highly-prized receivers signed with OU for the 2019 class; Bridges, Jadon Haselwood, Theo Wease, and Austin Stogner. The four make up one of the most talented receiver classes in recent memory and have already looked like they’re going to make waves in Norman.

Highlights

2019 Season

TFB has routinely heard that, although all three are going to be stars, Bridges has really stood out from the other freshman wide receivers. A source told TFB’s Super K that Bridges would have been the “player of the game” for one of last week’s scrimmages. With Trejan’s speed and size, he can play either inside or outside. Although CeeDee Lamb and Charleston Rambo are OU’s top receivers, with Grant Calcaterra manning the tight end spot, Bridges could find himself one of the receivers in the regular rotation with all the praise being spoken. Look for Trejan to bypass the redshirt season and be a regular contributor this season.
