2016 OT Erick Swenson (Downers Grove, Illinois) has committed to Oklahoma. This was something Brandon alluded to just a little bit ago:
#Sooners fans should be hearing good news soon.

Swenson’s commitment makes the second pledge of the day.

Double Barrel BOOM! BOOMER!
SOONER!!
Good one!!!
Double booms yes
Welcome Erik! Great decision! BB will take you to the next level.
Right On! Two Booms Today! Awesome!
Yea! It’s a great Saturday!
We get two BOOMS and the BB teams both win. It is a great day to be a SOONER. Welcome to the family Mr. Swenson.
YESSIR!!! Welcome Mr. Swenson. Incredible closing homestretch by Coach B
I could get used to this double boom thing.
I could live with a triple too!
I sure wouldn’t complain!
Gets to face those hated Buckeyes afterall…
Coach Bedenbaugh is a god. Erick is a monster. A Tackle who can execute a trap. I’m in.
I really bad at watching OL film. Taking you guys word for it. Stoked.
Nice. Dude is a monster.
Momma, that’s a big boy. pancake stacks so high, you’d think he was on IHOP’s payroll. Paging @JY
Sorry Indy, I didn’t see your post before posting myself. Great minds I guess.
Lol. Great minds indeed. Dude is so ferocious, he deserves a double post!
Man, I leave for 3 days and men beat LSU, ladies win and 2 booms. A self imposed ban may be in my future.
You’re BANNED! lol
You should be banned for life after this.
just stay away until Wednesday is over…it’ll be Christmas Thursday morning
Looks like Mr. Swenson likes to pancake…a lot!
He likes ’em so much we may just need to nickname him IHOP!
My thoughts as well. You could drive a truck through the gaps he creates
Boom! Get these hogs mollys a bucket of chicken, and a bowl of gravy to wash it down!
BOOM AND BOOM – Love it! Welcome to OUr team Mr. Swenson!
With a name like Erik Swenson there’s got to be a viking nickname in this guy’s future………..
Erik the Red
Flows off the tongue better than Erik the Crimson.
and, it’s an established lore
Lore, that’s an awesome word, not used much today, but envokes that viking in all of us. Erik the Red, of Sooner Lore!
Erik the Fed….he will gain 0ver 50 pounds
Haven’t seen the video but going by the comments, I’m glad we got this guy.
Nice, we needed this.
This weekend keeps getting better! Welcome aboard big man! #BOOM
BOOM!!!
BOOM and BOOM!! Keep em comin’!!! What a great day for Sooner Nation. Everybody wins.
Slim – I said yesterday in the “endless op” Boom-Boom – and it is here (16 /17 style). Now I still expect a Farrar boom to give us a triple-treat.
See what all that “positivity” yesterday accomplished!
By tomorrow night I expect 2 more!! OUDNA!
You sure did! I’d allow a triple Boom. Thankful for this day we’ve had.
positivity=hat trick
And both are top-ranked OL. Makes it all the sweeter.

Yes!! Can never have too many good linemen. Welcome to the Sooner Nation. Am sure you’ll look better in Crimson and Cream.
Where does he fall in the national rankings for his position?
He is a 4* who is the #15 OT according to Rivals.
Wow! For a guy so highly rated he sure had a short list of destinations. Do you have any idea who he held offers from?
He committed to Michigan early and they basically withdrew his offer a couple of weeks ago because they have a new coach. Probably didn’t get a lot of offers because he committed so early.
And he won’t have to wear ice skates to play in Norman. He’s luckier than he realizes to be a Sooner.
He will do.
BOOM for a big nasty!
He was actually committed to Michigan since 2013, and then about a month ago was told that there was no room in this recruiting class for him. Interesting. Harbaugh wanted to make sure he had HIS guys in place before cutting Swenson loose. Oh well, OU’s gain.
Coach Riley hinting at another ’16 commit on Twitter?? Anyone else see that? Or am I reading too much haha
I think he is referring to this commit.
How long ago. Could that have been for Swenson….or did he use another 2016 commit, or another commit today. Just wondering.
Yeah I think he was late to the Swenson party.
Omg, my Dad’s gonna be so happy. He’s always wondering why we can’t go get some “big polacks from the Midwest”. I think this counts.
Haha Mav. May be Midwest but definitely not a polack
Whew… I mean really… Whew! Had been concerned for a while that Mr. Moore’s academic problems would be an on-going issue for the next four years. However, with the 6:41 pulling in from Downers Grove, Illinois believe I’ll be for sleeping a bit better tonite. Welcome to God’s country Mr. Swenson – getting late but think we can still russell you up some “pancakes” ifn you’d like.
Gawd, I love pancakes. Especially those made with Krusteaz (sp?).

Big 12 OWNED the sec in the BIG 12-sec challenge. Still scratching my head over WVU losing to Florida. WTH?
Huggins
Yeah, but even oSu nearly beat FLA. WVU should’ve smoked them. Oh well…at least we won. Still super excited for coach Lon K. He has done a fantastic job of rebuilding this program.
i think the refs disliked his “style”- at one point in the 2nd half, the commentators said that there was a whistle every 43 seconds.
Refs can impact a game too much in basketball. They need to computerize it. Maybe an ap or something.
BedenBoom!!!

Now, if Swenson becomes an all-american and 1st round draft choice when his eligibility is done, it would be poetic justice!
Boom! Oh by the way, has anyone noticed that the top paid LT and RT in the NFL right now are both from OU? I hope we’re telling recruits that!
Good freaking call! Silverback and Johnson.
The two best RBs and the two highest paid OL. Yes, definitely, we need to broadcast that.
And at DT too. I think GK has the biggest contract of our guys.
In Japan now. First word I learned is “Bumu.”
Kawai ka..wa..e. means so cute or cute. Where in Japan. Miss the bullet train and food so owashi which means good. Spelling is probably wrong
幸運サンチェス氏 – or Good luck Mr Sanchez (according to google at least) 🙂
Boom! there we go.
Still take moore with hearne leaving?
I think this guy has a chance to be really good.
Geezus, versus some of those DE’s, Swenson looked like The Blindside – Part 2. Two top-ranked OLs in 2 days. Coach B be representin’.
Welcome to the Sooner Nation Mr Swenson! We need more Scandinavian players on our team to go along with said fans like myself. BOOMER!
We need a JY breakdown in this kid. From what I know about him he likes pancakes.
Noticed he picked my best friend and former OU All American Ed Foster’s number. Ed passed away last year. Hope this young man is half the man and player that Ed was. If so, OU will be blessed to have him.
Really liking the new stadium plans that Erik got hold of. Part of the new recruiting pitch, I’m guessing. LOL
One more time as I have posted this often
Does OU have large posters of our NFL guys, I mean large ones with dollar amounts at the bottom Bradford, McCoy Williams and Gresham inked a quarter billion….The highest paid O Lineman in the NFL are from OU Johnson and Williams, the highest paid running backs are from OU Murray and Peterson One of the highest paid DT in McCoy is from OU Now that is recruiting material that you cannot discount..
3 of the first four in the 1st round of the NFL draft 2010 First pick in Bradford on and on
I never have said this but I have a strange feeling OU will sign a top ten class…just seems like we are under the radar
We are set up with the Heisman hype, great schedule and facility upgrades to make a big haul next February if we play our cards right.
