Marquise Overton Commits to Oklahoma
Posted on: January 3, 2014
Big time 2015 DT, Marquise Overton, has officially committed to the University of Oklahoma. Before Oklahoma offered Que we were big fans of Que and were beating the drum for an early offer. Here is JY’s breakdown of Que from a while back (prior to Que’s OU offer) – it’s a great read if you haven’t seen it: https://thefootballbrainiacs.com/?p=968
I don’t expect this to be the last commitment of the weekend.

Wow! This is big! (literally)
Yessir!!! This weekend keeps getting better and better!! We are starting to see recruiting efforts of the new line coaches with this 2015 class!!!! BOOMER!!!
Coach Warren: Who factored in your decision to commit to Oklahoma?
MO: My family, seeing that big win they had against
Alabama and their improvement on defense especially how Coach Montgomery
has the defensive line playing.
BOOM! Monty strikes!!! HAHAAAAAA
lol yes sir 🙂
Love when we keep OK’s best right here at home…..the way it should be
YESSIR!!!
Huge get! Also, what does this do for OU’s chances to land Parker? Can only help right?
Read his interview by coach warren and he says that he really wants to play alongside Parker. FWIW, also said that he is 100% commited when he was asked about chances of decomitting. Cannot overstate the importance keeping the talent in state.
It’s definitely going to help to have him. He’ll be trying to get Parker to commit, I’m sure.
The chances of getting Parker are good but I can’t say much more.
Sweet pick up for OU. Keep it coming!
OU’s units at the line of scrimmage are going to inspire a lot of fear in the near future. Montgomery and Bedenbaugh are going to work on these juniors
Indeed. Already some great line commits for 2015 and I love the guys for the 2014 class.
I wish these “verbal” commits were binding.
It is a long time until he can sign a binding LOI, BUT I think a kid that grew up in Oklahoma and a Sooner fan will be a solid commit and I really don’t worry about this one sticking. He knows that if he decommits and someone takes his spot that he is up the creek…
Luckily, or maybe not luck, OU has lost few recruits after they’ve committed. But, 2015 is a long time away. What happens when USC, or Alabama come a calling? Hopefully OU is back to the 70s when kids were clamoring to sign on the dotted line.
Only when they commit to us, however.
Great pick up. You guys knew long ago what a quality player Overton is, and could be in college.
Is this the beginning of a great recruiting weekend? Hope so
If Que puts in the work he could be really good!
