The Path to Norman
KJ Daniels, a receiver out of Louisiana, was one of Coach Emmett Jones’ first priorities upon arriving in Norman. After being hired in January 2023, Coach extended an offer to Daniels in February and had the young man on campus in March. Daniels’ offer sheet already included Texas Tech, Houston, and Tulane. It didn’t get much longer, likely due to an April commitment date and Daniels shutting down his recruitment.
Career so Far
Daniels took a redshirt season in 2024 and did not play.
Highlights
This Season
Daniels has been out this offseason due to a hamstring injury. He’ll work to recover from that and earn snaps when healthy.
