We may be coming down the home stretch in this 2016 recruiting class, but that certainly hasn’t stopped Oklahoma from already getting off to a quick start for 2017.
And that hot start continued Thursday evening with the addition of 2017 wide receiver Ceedee Lamb (Richmond, TX), who tweeted out his commitment to the Sooners.

BOOM!
Man this ball is rolling downhill and the momentum is getting out of control. I love it!!d
Sorry I didn’t say “First!”
Good thing because you were second lol
4th 4* of that class… that’s as many as are in this current class.
Where is he a 4 star at? Couldn’t even find a Rivals page for the kid.
It’s under cedarian lamb.

Take that Houston!!
Here:
This invisible link is bringing me an invisible page. I’m scared.
Can you not see his player profile? Haha. I screenshot it.
Now I can. Thought you were being a smartass. Damn, missed opportunity.
I’m not saying that’s below me haha, but it wasn’t this time.
I like me some BOOMS…I like a LOT!
Needed that one today! BOOM!
2017 looking to kill!
Just love it. 2017 has their qb and wr on offense and a safety and lb on defense. Maybe Mark Andrews can talk to his old high school teammate Kyle Allen.
It sounds like Allen is recruiting OU more than the other way round.
It’s been mentioned if you haven’t already read it in the comments.
You HWY 20 boys know how to read? Good for you.
We have abilities that are still being studied by the world’s greatest minds. 🙂
I have no doubt.
BOOM!
I saw that Kyle Allen said that he would look at OU when considering where to transfer
Wow!
He also mentioned his good buddy Mark Andrews
That would be the closest thing to a jackpot that OU can hit. He didn’t struggle at A&M because he sucks. College Station is where talented QB’s go to die under Sumlin.
If he wants in at OU, make room for him.
When everything looked all gloom and doom for the wide receiver position, this happens! Great timing. BOOM!
Ranked #53 by 247 and #23 by Rivals. Obviously very underrated. Great get. Still, I hope we land a major WR recruit next class like a Tyrie Cleveland. 5 star WR’s should be flocking to OU. Makes no sense.
OU will get its 5 stars soon
At 6’1″ 170lb if he grows a inch or two and puts on 20 to 30 lbs he could be crazy good! Caught 52 pass for over 1k yards and 11 tds and runs a 4.4
I am ok with this commit fo sho!
Rivals list him as 6’3, 170lb
Even better
His Hudl looked good. High pointed catches; took the short pass for long gains; out ran the corner on the deep ball.
But I wouldn’t worry too much about all the recruiting site numbers. Rivals had him taller, but 4.53 40 time, so….
He looked fast enough. I don’t believe any times posted under 4.5 I’m actually more tempted to believe the time if it’s listed over 4.5
I’ve seen 4.53 and that’s believable. Hell, I was a 4.6 guy (in pads) over 30 years ago so the 4.4’s are believable to me now with the training they get at a young age.
Sub 4.4 is believable for maybe 1 out of 100 skill guys out of HS. That’s why I don’t believe it when I see it posted on hudl. I like to wait until the kids are in college to judge their true speed.
Sub 4.4 is a different animal, was someone claiming Lamb was sub 4?
No I was just making the reference that 4.53 is pretty good. I bet Crabtree ran about that in high school.
And that I don’t believe most of the sub 4.4 times I see posted on hudl. Humphrey posted 4.25 on there but he’s really about 4.5
Yeah, I call BS on a 4.25, that’s just crazy.
to me he doesnt look like he has the high top end speed but his acceleration looks pretty damn good! Plus he plays physical gotta love that!
I know what you mean. Spencer Tillman told me I was quick for a white boy because I could beat him in the 40, but he always beat me in the 100 because he had a high gear that I didn’t have. lol.
Exactly. I don’t doubt that he can run 4.4 without pads but in pads I doubt it. And if he really was a 4.25 guy he would not have RS’d no matter how much weight he needed to put on.
It’s kind of hard to believe a lot of stuff posted nowdays. These kids can grow or shrink 2-3 inches. gain or lose 20-30 pounds, and times in 40 be 2-3 tenths off. Just depends what site you read. I guess as long as he can outrun who is chasing him is all that matters.
OU recruited two extremely FAST HS receivers for the 216 class ( Duvernay & Jack Jones ) but got neither. they are a rare commodity and highly sought after……….
Bet you could still run a 4.6 twenty
Make it a ten and I will try. 🙂
Good start at WR for 2017 now we need charleston Rambo.
And tylan Wallace.
My thoughts exactly. What a solid wr class that would be.
Where the hell did that come from?
Ah Denzel my friend. Sure love it when you drop by to say BOOM
Kyle Allen specifically mentions OU as a landing spot. http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/texas-am-aggies-kyle-allen-transfer-options-oklahoma-sooners-bob-stoops-121015

He camped with the texsa shorthorns and chose the OU Sooners – a wise man.
Suck it texsa!
Wow, I have never seen so many highlights with the WR blocking. Will fit right in with what Simmons preaches. His QB sure loves him on jump balls.
Welcome Ceedee! Wow, I thought OU was a slower starter at recruiting. This 2017 class is looking awesome!
Baylor already has 7 commits for the 2017 class and 5 of them are Scout top 300 types……The Bears are cleaning up instate right now which is why Texas should be worried about Strong’s ability to siphon talent to Austin……
The new Sooner reality!
I believe Kyle Allen will become a Sooner, timing just works out
That would be cool. Looking for a couple of 2016 Booms next week.
AD misses Loadholt.
I miss Loadholt.
You miss baths.
I’m a shower guy. You can have your candle and wine baths. 🙂
With bubbles
Lol! Tru dat! Baths are da devil.
I miss bath salts.
Do you not watch the news? those things will kill you.
From my experience it’s usually other people’s faces, but that’s on a good night with good salts.
Showers cause cancer! True story!
I smoked for many years, after giving that up I will gladly gamble with my shower. Lol!
Congrats, a friend of mine quit a couple of years ago. He said it was the hardest thing he ever done in his life. He wrestled for 4 years at Wisconsin, to me that’s tuff but he said it couldn’t hold a candle.
Visits camps at Baylor, Texsa, and Okie Lite and Okie Lite offers him all in the spring… Gets an offer from The Sooners in October and is smart enough to accept that offer in December…I already like his style!
You’d think a guy with a name like Lamb would end up at OSU but Im glad we got him.
Welcome aboard!
Damn, I can’t believe I didn’t think of that…..nice!
Thanks, Im warped…it comes very naturally to me lol
Ha!
He saw what happened to that reindeer….
Im still having nightmares
Revenge of the Lamb
I see what you did there…not baaaad
you know they’ve moved on to deer now….so a guy like Rudolph suits them just fine.
Did I just read OU give Trevor Knight a full release to transfer anywhere even a big 12 school
Yes you did.
I wish him the best of luck one the best games I’ve Watch when we handed to Alabama
Everyone wishes him the best, he did Sooners proud and was a good leader and a good face for the program.
Yes you did
edit: lol @ ray and I thinking alike.
Yes, and why not?
Pretty sure most OU fans have heard that Trevor Knight is transferring, but some may have also heard that just mins afterwards Kyle Allen (QB) also announces he’ll transfer from Texas A&M. Do we have another awesome QB falling to our lap like Mayfield?!?! Another Big BOOM?!!!
http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/texas-am-aggies-kyle-allen-transfer-options-oklahoma-sooners-bob-stoops-121015
I hope not…OUs new policy is to only take walk on QBs
Yeah don’t want anyone with more than 3 stars as QB (White, Bradford, Mayfield). Oh and heupel.
That should be our new criteria.
I agree. They can have Rhett Bomar.
White was a 4*
I posted this about 4 posts down.
And it was posted like 10 times in the open post.
20
30
Pffft…..you’re such a one upper!
It was my bold prediction coming into the 2015 season so….
Wut? TK is transferring? Link?
lol
What a butthole.
Kyle Allen probably comes here because his best bud Mark Andrews is here
ESPN reporting Mark Andrews transfering to A&M
Dont mess around like that! I can’t see your face
If you could see my face it wouldnt give away that I was kidding…which I was btw : )
ok
Boom!!!!

I don’t know what this is, but HELL YES. Anytime there’s a dude with a fake unicorn horn and a trombone, with dancing girls…you know you came to the right party.
Its the ultra hot sasha banks dancing with the new day. WWE stuff.
That is a good get. He’s got good hands, tracks the ball very well and is physical. I’m not sure what his measurables are but he looks to able to make up for any short comings with speed.
Just checked it out, 6’1″ at 170lbs. If he can add another 10-15 lbs. he’s going to be an excellent WR.
Another year of HS and a training camp at OU, 15 lbs won’t be a problem.
On rivals he’s listed as 6’3″ and on 247 he’s 6’1″. Not sure which one is usually more accurate but if he’s 6’3″, he is going to be one heck of an outside threat.
split the difference and let’s say he’s 6’2″
Winner!
His team roster lists him as 6’2″ 180.

BOOM!! He looks good to me. Welcome to OUr world.
I think he’s probably higher rated (You know ****’s) if he had a QB that didn’t just throw a jump ball every time.
I was enjoying the highlights of him laying out potential tacklers in the run game.
like this film , big? – check , fast? – check , Hands? – check! physical – Check!
The way he blocks ( like he hates db’s) he should see playing time early at OU!
(I do think someone should warn him about taunting LB’s and such at the next level
before he fins out why they love to see the wr coming on a crossing route)
-like his moxy but tha twould be really living dangerously in the Big12
